Our
Program:
We
offer a comprehensive and surprisingly affordable program
of monthly leases and half leases. Leases are designed to
allow clients all of the benefits of horse ownership without
the large financial responsibility.
This
program presents the opportunity to develop a relationship
and bond with a horse that is not normally possible when just
taking lessons. Young people benefit both from the responsibility
of taking care of an animal and the self confidence gained
by achieving their goals. Adults benefit from the stress relief
that horses can provide and also from the limberness and physical
conditioning obtained from regular riding. Riding exercises all
major muscle groups and is weight bearing so its good for bone development. Leasing is also strongly encouraged for aspiring hunter/jumper riders as a way to help develop the muscle strength needed to truly hold a safe and effective form over fences.
What
is involved:
Leasing
a horse means that you do not buy a horse, do not have to
feed, and do not need to buy tack. You just need to love horses
and have a desire to learn!
No
matter what level of rider or physical condition, we have
a horse to suit you. Every effort is made to make sure that
you are matched with the right horse. We want you to have
a horse that you can enjoy and learn from.
If
you are interested in leasing a horse, please don't hesitate
to contact us. We fill up fast, and operate on a first come
first serve basis.
Cost
All
equipment is supplied with the lease, including saddles, bridles,
and etc., at no additional cost. Lessons when a horse is leased
