LESSON HORSES
We love our lessons horses — they truly are the backbone of Lenux Stables & Riding Academy. Without them, we couldn't introduce horseback riding to newcomers, beginning and intermediate riders wouldn't be able to advance their skills, and there would be no show riders pursuing their competitive equestrian dreams.
PARIE
Parie is our fastest lesson horse here at Lenux! Parie teaches all types of lessons; tiny trotter, beginners to advanced, and even does lunge lessons. Parie is very sweet to all of her riders and loves to race around the ring!
MISTY
Misty is a favorite with our riders, drivers, and staff here at Lenux! Mr. Quintus purchased Misty as one of his very first horses when she was just a baby. Misty is over 20 years old and can teach beginner to advanced lessons. Misty has the smoothest canter and loves to do pattern work. Her favorite thing to do is go to the horse shows and help us get our new riders in the ring. Misty is a member of the Academy Nationals Lesson Horse Fall of Fame.
