I’m Ed Cohn.  If you want to learn to rope then I invite you to come and check out my roping school. I have decades of experience with roping, horsemanship, and teaching everyone from the beginner to the intermediate student.

Total Access, an emmy-winning local news program that follows the 49ers on and off the field, has come to RV.  More specifically, the show was happy to hook up with Ed Cohn to give a one-day lesson about roping to a couple of the 49ers.

Delanie Walker (TE) and Josh Morgan (WR) had a great time at the Ranch learning how to rope a dummy, and then a moving steer in a crash-course on roping.

If you want to see how the day went, tune in to Total Access on Channel 2, today (Saturday, November 7th) at 5:30pm for the first showing of a day of roping with Ed at the Ranch.

And if you, too, feel inspired to learn to rope, pay attention to our home page in the next few months.  Ed Cohn’s Roping School begins the first week of March.  More to come on that later..

Nancy Hey, of Strideaway farms, is excited to be moving her training and lesson program to Rancho Viejo.

After 38 years at the Stanford barn, she is continuing her legacy in Portola Valley.  Nancy teaches students from young children all the way through hunters/jumpers and advanced equitation.

Rancho Viejo is a beautiful place to board your horse in the bay area.  We are a very friendly, low-key place with excellent amenities for horse and rider.

We have four arenas.  This includes one covered arena with lights, one members-only dressage arena with lights, one large outdoor arena with lights and one small outdoor arena, which does not have lights.  We have turnouts, a round pen and multiple wash racks.  We also have flat trail access and a few hundred acres of pasture trails.

We have two wash racks, a people shower and an indoor toilet. We have several tack rooms and everyone is allowed one saddle rack, one bridle rack and space for one tack trunk.

If you wish to be in training, we have multiple disciplines availiable.  We are proud to be the home of Kramer Training and Seven Oaks Farm .  These trainers also offer lesson programs.
