& Leasing
Increase your time in the tack & at the barn with a competitive focus
At Belle Wood, we aim to create well-rounded riders who are focused on horsemanship first.
The next step for riders in our lesson program wishing to compete more or spend more time at the barn is to join our show team!
Under the coaching of Belinda Logan & Melanie Colwel, our show team currently competes off-property at The Pickering Horse Centre's Show Series and at our own Grass Roots Show Series.
In the past, Belinda has taken our show team to Trillium, Silver, and Gold shows and achieved successful results. Belinda has also had the pleasure of taking students on 'showcation' to WEC Ohio, and Wellington, Florida with mentor Grace Wanyura.
What is Leasing?
Leasing allows riders to enjoy the same horse in all of their lessons, secure the same horse for each Grass Roots Show, have the opportunity to compete off-property without the extra commitment, cost and risk of owning a horse.
Why Lease?
Leasing is a great way to grow a bond with a specific horse while sharpening your skills multiple times a week, both in lessons and in practice rides. Leasing gives riders more barn time and is a great way to boost confidence, create a sense of responsibility and make new friends.
Extra Opportunities
Leasers are required to partake in our fall, winter and spring clinics catered towards development and growth with a rotating group of equine professionals.
Past Clinicians:
Grace Wanyura, Ray Butterfield, Di Lagmar, Peter Gisborn, Beth Murray, Brandon Hall, Sarah Long, & Jason Milburn
