Leadership Academy & Riding Team

An equestrian training program that provides English riding and beginner level dressage training for young women.  The program also prepares students for educational paths and careers by providing educational, cultural, leadership and equine/animal husbandry training along with developmental supports geared toward independent thinking and problem-solving. The program provides the opportunity to travel within the horse industry via competition and attendance at horse shows.  The group takes advantage of social activities such as attending the theater, plays, recreational activities, and other events throughout the year.
