Steph has been body clipping her own horses for about 20 years and client's horses for 10 years. If you are finding it time consuming to cool out your horse on cooler days or if you loathe Spring shedding, perhaps your horse would benefit from a clip job.

Trace clip: $100
Face & legs cleaned up: $35
We do occasionally offer half-leases on our school horses which includes use for one lesson and two schooling rides per week. This is a good option if you are interested in more riding time or a good step towards horse ownership. Half-leases are available to intermediate+ riders who have been taking lessons at Heavenwood for at least 6 months. Please speak with Steph for details if interested.
Current students who demonstrate that they are capable of properly caring for their school horse before, during, and after a ride have the option of adding in unsupervised schooling rides between lessons. This is a good option for students who would like to get additional riding time each week to practice "homework" from their lessons but are not ready or able to half-lease a horse. Please speak with Steph for details if interested.
