Competition Opportunities:
All academy riders have the opportunity to participate in competitions once they have achieved the necessary skills. Executive Farms attends local, regional, and national horse shows that include special classes for the academy rider riding a lesson horse and for the more advanced riders using their horse or one of ours. Competitions are a fun and rewarding avenue that not only develops the rider’s horsemanship abilities but also builds self-confidence and improves the rider’s self-esteem. Executive Farms also participates in Michigan winter tournament shows. These shows are held once a month in the winter and are a great opportunity for the kids, from beginner to advanced.
