About Us
Echo Valley Academy is one of the branches of Echo Valley Arabians, where our young stock breeding & retirement programs are situated. Here we house our Arabian and new Hanoverian Competition Horses. We also train the young horses that are transported down here ready to excel and be turned into champions. Our competition disciplines are all focused towards the English disciplines and Halter. Another aspect of the Academy is that we train any potential staff members here such as Veterinarians, Trainers and Riders. this is helpful as they're is such a lot of work to around here.
The Horses
Our Program
Any horse ideally first starts here at the age of 3, where they begin their training with award winning personal riders and trainers who are perfectionists in their individual fields. Each horse focuses on one discipline but we do enter them in Halter and Liberty Shows too! Whether it be dressage or endurance racing. We also train our young with more experienced horses in their desired future discipline. We feel that this can make them feel more relaxed and confident as they are put through their paces and learn new things. After a few years of daily training we may graduate the horse to light competitions such as schooling events before entering them into B-Rated and A-Rated shows by the age of 5, where they will hopefully excel and earn points to become known across the equine world. After a successful career horses will be retired to our breeding facilities to produce the next show generation of their lines. We may even see their offspring at these stables sometime in the future!
