Founded over four decades ago, South Winds Farm began as a small family stable with a big dream: to create a nurturing environment where riders and horses grow together. Nestled just outside Americus, Georgia, our rolling pastures and weathered barns have welcomed generations of equestrians. Every corner of the farm reflects a legacy of dedication and care. We invite you to become part of our story and help write the next chapter in our history.

At South Winds Farm, our mission is to cultivate confident, compassionate riders and horses through genuine partnerships. We believe that classical, proper riding technique is only the beginning—character, resilience, and respect for all living beings are the true rewards. Every lesson and training session is designed to strengthen not just seat and stirrup, but also self-discipline and empathy. Whether you’re 8 or 80, beginner or advanced, you’ll find support that extends far beyond the arena fence.  

We view each horse as an individual teacher, capable of showing us both our strengths and our challenges. Our approach blends classical training principles with modern, humane methods to foster trust and clear communication. By prioritizing the horse’s physical and mental well-being, we create partnerships built on mutual respect. This harmonious foundation allows riders to develop balance, timing, and instinct—qualities that translate to confidence in the saddle and beyond.
