Magic Moments travels to several horse shows every year, and students and boarders interested in competing are encouraged to join us. Our horses love to strut their stuff.

4worldlovers: We love our horses. They are our Equine family members. So everything we do is about learning to master the riding discipline, and helping promote happy, safe and healthy horsemanship! Our lesson program elements are all designed to promote the best in us and our equine partners.

Whether you're a young person just starting out, looking for a more serious riding school, an adult returning to the sport, or an adult ready for a new challenge, we're here to help you become the best version of yourself... on horseback! We started Eire Equine to support all the riders of Houston who are serious about making English riding a part of their life.

Our support team consists of 5 coaches of varying levels who help students of all ages. From a variety of disciplines, including Dressage, Hunter, Equitation, Eventing, or Jumping, our dedicated team of passionate coaches will help you train yourself, and your horse, to be the best versions of yourselves! And our Eire Equine Family will support you at every step of our your journey.

Our motto is, "BÍonn grasta Dé idir an dialair agus an talamh" It means the grace of providence is found between the saddle and the ground.

Its an Irish belief that horses are integral to happiness. Here at Eire Equine we take that to heart. We are all horse lovers, and the members of our Riding School are like extended family. We maintain our Irish Extended and Equine Family with a focus on health, sportsmanship and supporting each other. While we are all competitive, we attend events as the Eire Equine Family, and we're there to support all our "family" members. Equine and Human alike.

Students often have questions about what they need for their riding lessons. Below you'll find a list of items you need, and items we recommend.

The most important part of your riding attire, a Riding Helmet is critical to your safety. Riding Helmets must be ASTM and SEI certified riding helmets specifically designed for a fall from a horse. (Bicycle helmets will not work.) The Riding School has some loaner helmets, but proper fit is critical, so we encourage students to purchase their own.

Jodhpurs, also called breeches or English riding pants, are tight-fitting trousers that reach to the ankle, where they end in a snug cuff, and are worn primarily for horse riding. You can find riding pants or riding tights at your local Dover Saddlery. Here's a weblink to what you should look for.

Second only to a helmet, your footwear is an important gear category for horse riding. Paddock boots are short boots that come just above the ankle, with a slight heel. While the Riding School does have some loaners, its important that you have a well-fitting pair of boots when you ride. Here's a weblink:

Riding Gloves - These will provide the grip you need to grip the reins, with flexibility to bend your fingers as needed.

Oak Hollow Equestrian Center LLC. is a family-oriented horse stable and riding school which has become a second home to many of our clients. Elizabeth Savelli, owner of Oak Hollow since 2017, lives on the property with previous owners David Harrison and his wife Suzanne who have been previous owners since 1992. Over the years, we have observed the character-building and personal confidence gained by our clients from the horse-rider relationship. A close bond, based on mutual trust and respect, often forms between a horse and rider as they learn to work as a team.
