Training Programs

At TEC we customize training programs to suit both the owner and the horse’s needs, along with the owner's budget.  We offer training packages from one week to six months.  We ask that horses are current on shots, vaccinations, worming and hoof care. Horses do not need to be shod because we have mostly sandy footing. Included in the training package is training and either grass or alfalfa hay.  Horses are kept with a maximum of three other training horses of the same sex in wooded pastures ranging from one to two acres.   They are fed twice a day and have access to an automatic water system at the top of a slight hill- this helps with self-conditioning every time they go to get a drink of water and burning off any excess energy.

We strongly encourage owner participation as the horse gains confidence and experience.   Owners are invited to watch training sessions and eventually partake in lessons with their horse both working on the ground and riding.  This way we can send both horse and owner home with clear communication and a raised level of awareness to create a respectful and rewarding partnership with each other.

Horses are worked Monday thru Friday (not by the clock.)  Our goal is to start and end on a positive note.  Horses may be dropped off Monday-Friday between 8am and 12pm.  For one week of training (Sam working with only the horse) which includes board is $185; if the horse and owner are in full training (any combo of five sessions and including board) the fee is $210.  Full payment is required PRIOR to training.  We have a waiting list so owners can secure the next available spot by paying a NON-REFUNDABLE $185 deposit.  Checks should be made payable to TEC or you may use Pay Pal. Please Add Special Instructions to Seller by referencing your contact info and your horse's name. Horses are accepted in the order that deposits are received.
