The Iron Orchid Equestrian Arts draws inspiration from the intuitive development of French Classical Dressage and the physical awareness of Martial Arts. Students learn the skills of chinese and japanese martial arts such as Kyudo, Aikido, Kenjutsu, Yabusame, Tai Chi, Qigong, and more. The combination of artforms provides the students with a well rounded education to better cultivate the true essence of horsemanship. Iron Orchid Equestrian also hosts a Mounted Archery club, and travels around the country to tournaments.

While we do teach forms of self-defense, our primary mission is to hone each person's ability to find softness in horsemanship and in life. Our purpose is not to provide a strict curriculum for students, but develop an enviroment for collaboration and evolution. Dedication is key for any artform, and students must commit to the weekly meetings/lessons. Various practitioners will be brought in to expand the pool of knowledge and students will be provided opportunities to showcase their skills amongst themselves.
