Leasing

For the more serious equestrian, horse ownership is something that most look into.  We offer a nice step into horse ownership through our in house leasing program.  We offer the feel and financial responsibility of horse ownership without the initial investment or long term commitment.  Most of our riding academy horses are available for half or full leases.  All horses and ponies that are leased or half-leased must also purchase a lesson or training package.

Half Lease

Half leasing is the best way to get the feel of horse ownership, with the least commitment.  It allows the rider:

  • 3 days a week of riding (one of which must be a lesson)
  • Guaranteed priority for use of their half-leased equine in lessons and shows
  • It introduces more independence for the student when riding
  • An introduction into what horse ownership in terms of care and cost

Full Lease

Full leasing is essentially horse ownership, but without the financial investment of the horse’s purchase price or the worry about what to do with it when it’s time to move on.  This allows for riders:

  • Sole use of the horse or pony for lessons and hacking – No one else gets to ride the horse/pony so you never worry about schedule conflicts or inconsistent aids in training
  • Use at shows and clinics, on and off the property
  • Experience of horse ownership in terms of care and cost
  • A known end date so the rider may look for their next move up mount easily

When you continue to raise the next generation of When you continue to raise the next generation of horsemen/horsewomen in the industry, you can't help but sit back and be in awe. The amount of collegiate level riders (NCEA and IHSA), trainers, and industry professionals that have come out of our program is astounding. Someone has to create the important individuals in our sport, not just the horses, and I'm happy to be a part of so many of their stories! Ava is a senior in high school and now beginning to braid. Braiders are the unsung heros in this industry and frankly a dying art. We are so proud of you @avablankenship42 !!
