Our Story

Founded in 2010, Law Magic Equestrian began as a small family-owned riding school with a simple mission: to provide the highest quality horse riding instruction in Australia. What started with just two horses and a single instructor has grown into one of the country's most respected equestrian training centers.

Our founder, Sarah Mitchell, was inspired by her lifelong passion for horses and her desire to share the joy and discipline of equestrian sports with others. With over 20 years of competitive riding experience and certifications from international equestrian organizations, Sarah established Law Magic Equestrian with a vision of creating a nurturing environment where riders of all ages and skill levels could thrive.

Today, we operate from our state-of-the-art facility in Sydney, featuring indoor and outdoor arenas, top-quality horses, and a team of certified professional instructors. We have successfully trained over 500 students, many of whom have gone on to compete at national and international levels.
