Welcome
Welcome to Rising Moon Ranch.
Rising Moon Equine Center (Ranch) relocated and is open for business. We have chosen Tehachapi Ca. because it is centrally located. We are two hours from Los Angeles, forty five minutes from Bakersfield, and two and a half hours from Paso Robles.
Rising Moon is owned by Vic Martin and Charisse Rudolph's Corporation, Redmen Enterprises, LLC. The Corporation was named after one of Charisse's favorite horses, Red who had a terrible accident and was killed at age six. Red was a beautiful chestnut built like a brick, that was brought to her for training at age two and one half. Charisse could ride Red with just a rope around his neck. After clicker training he would walk, trot, back up, or canter at her side, both of them being on foot. It is his face on their business card.
Rising Moon Ranch was purchased in Tehachapi, as a business in Dec. 2009. It took us a year to get the facility complete. We are a private facility offering clinics, and equine assisted learning, or psychotherapy. Our newest program is called, Healing Horses & Armed Forces. It is a program created for our returning men and women that have served our country so we can have freedom. Rising Moon Ranch has the only indoor arena in the area. We also have an outdoor arena, a full course of jumps, a trail course, round ring, all new footings, hot and cold water wash racks, indoor and outdoor cross ties. We have 21.45 acres with more then 80 miles of trails starting right outside our gate. Our indoor arena is 80 x 160, our outdoor arena is 100x200.
We are working on completing an indoor area in the front of our barn that will be used as a empowerment/conference center. This is where we will give power point presentations and conduct creative exercises designed, to support the healing of our returning veterans with the transition from war, back to civilian life. We are currently looking for financial assistance to complete the project.

How to Be Part of the Healing Horses & Armed Forces Program.
We would like your help to continue our work in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) and Equine Assisted Learning (EAL). Our program uses a licensed therapist and a horse professional for treatment of behavioral issues, physical abuse, depression, anxiety, PTSD and more.
Your financial contribution will help us to build confidence and change lives using horses and people working from the ground. Our clients are not required to be horseback riders. They will be learning the skills they need to develop problem-solving techniques, and a new attitude for a successful life.
There are several ways you can help us, to insure our program continues and our soldiers have a warm and safe place to explore who they were, who they have become from their experiences of war, and who they want to be.
You can help by sponsoring a veteran, with a scholarship for The Equine Experience.
You can make a contribution toward the completion of the Empowerment Center.
You can sponsor lunch when we are holding a program for veterans or bake cookies.
Or, you may become a Ribbon Sponsor:

Red Ribbon-----------------------------------$1,000.00
