Our Program
1Personalized Lessons and Training
For riders seeking to advance their skills and develop a competitive edge, we offer an individualized training regimen tailored to their specific needs and goals. Students are evaluated by their coaches to determine their strengths and areas of focus for lessons and for showing.
2Your Equine Partner
Students' equine partners also benefit from the expertise of experienced top level trainers and riders. Each student and equine partnership is evaluated for suitability with the student's riding goals in mind.
Students are encouraged to bring their own horses, but we also offer top level horses to lease for six months or twelve months.
3Shows and Clinics
Students have multiple opportunities to develop their skills and showmanship at our clinincs and at rated shows throughought New England, the East Coast, and Florida. For serious equestrian athletes, the benefit of continuous training and showing yearlong is understood. Our program offers on average 3-5 rated shows from August through October (students who qualify for Maclay, Junior Hunter Finals, and Young Rider Finals to name a few are fully supported) and in the winter months we have a special J Term in Florida for 8-10 weeks, and in the Spring term students can attend 2-4 rated shows. We also offer a special early start program that begins August 1st.
