ORGANIZATION: Tempus Renatus School of Classical Horsemanship

  • 1 person is interested

Learn more about horses, goats, and other farm animals while helping with feeding, cleaning stalls, grooming, and any other chores that might pop up (it is never a dull day on the farm!). Previous experience appreciated but not required. Heavy lifting skills sometimes needed, but there are chores that don't require as much muscle.

We are a nonprofit riding school that has recently relocated to Remsen. We offer educational workshops/demonstrations/other opportunities, mental health support, internships, and regular riding education. Many of our animals are rescues, and most are a rare breed. If you want a deeper dive into what we do, we're more than happy to work with you!

About Tempus Renatus School of Classical Horsemanship

Location:

10180 Llewellyn Road, Remsen, NY 13438, US

Mission Statement

Mission: Our mission is to preserve and promote the art of classical horsemanship, providing accessible opportunities and taking its core philosophy of stewardship a step further into regenerative agriculture, rare breed conservation, and mental and physical wellness for humans and horses. We accomplish this through educational programs, public demonstrations, and equine-assisted learning with targeted programs for marginalized populations, including veterans, at-risk youth, para-athletes, and groups at higher risk of suicide.

Description

Tempus Renatus started with dreams of our founders that arose after watching the old Disney movie "Miracle of the White Stallions." Ever since that exposure to the Lipizzans and the Spanish Riding School, we wanted to experience that beauty and harmony in our own riding. Starting with horses of various breeds and backgrounds, we stumbled into classical trainers as we looked for ways to help our horses be their best selves, even if they were less-than-perfectly built. When the chance came up to acquire a Lipizzan, it felt like a dream come true.
We started in 2012 as a small breeding/training farm with the hope of making a small impact for Lipizzan breeding and training. However, we came to realize the horses and classical riding had a much greater impact on others than we could have imagined. We also saw how there were few training centers in the US where someone could have intensive training in classical dressage, and there were even fewer chances for people who have the heart but not the resources. Hence, the nonprofit was born in 2017 to help others with passion and love for the art of riding. In June of 2022, we relocated from Raeford, NC to Black Mountain, NC, where we were starting to build new facilities until Hurricane Helene struck and forced us to relocate to Remsen, NY in January of 2025 due to the damage to the property
