Brook Hollow Equestrian represents a new direction for Briana —one shaped by more than 15 years of experience teaching, training, and operating a successful equestrian program in PA and a desire to create a more intimate, specialized riding environment in the Ithaca area. Brook Hollow is intentionally designed for riders seeking thoughtful instruction, meaningful connections, and horse-centered experiences in a personal setting.
While running her previous business, Pleasant Ridge Farm, LLC, Briana was the founder of Pleasant Ridge Pony Club as well as the Center Administrator for 7 years where she has guided students through structured mounted education, stable management, and progressive skill development. Her programs reflect the Pony Club philosophy that great riders are great horsemen first, emphasizing responsibility, thoughtful care, and a deeper understanding of the horse alongside mounted instruction.
Brook Hollow Riding Center intends to foster a community of riders who value connection, learning, and shared horse-centered experiences, while also building a dedicated student base and developing show teams for riders interested in setting goals and participating in competition. The program is intentionally small, allowing for personalized instruction, individualized training plans, and strong relationships among riders, horses, and instructors. Briana offers training board and ship-in lesson opportunities and serves as the primary point of contact for all program inquiries. Her vision for Brook Hollow is a quiet, thoughtful place where riders develop strong foundations, lasting partnerships, and a genuine sense of belonging within a supportive equestrian community.
