What training includes

Comprehensive care, without the fine print.

One thoughtful whole

Training, conditioning, grooming, and routine care are coordinated within the program—no surprise add-on fees for the everyday services your horse needs.

A weekly rhythm

Every training horse receives at least one professional training session and one rider lesson each week, so progress is shared between horse and rider.

Trusted professionals

A coordinated veterinarian and farrier team supports continuity, soundness, and long-term development.

Show-day support

Organized coaching and preparation at competitions, from warm-up to the walk back to the barn.

Training pairs naturally with rider education—see how lessons work at Equitas.
