ACADEMY RIDERS

If you are just getting started in the horse show world or don't yet own a show horse, the Lenux Academy Show Team is the perfect place to start. Academy Shows are entry-level horse shows designed to give novice riders a chance to enter the world of horse showing on horses owned by the Riding Academy.

During show season (March through November) our riders participate in a number of shows that are only minutes away from the barn, as well as five shows that are within a 40-minute drive. In addition, there are many Academy Shows throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Virginia. Our Academy Show Team is an inexpensive, low-pressure way to gain valuable show experience and confidence. Additionally, the required show attire in the Academy division is less elaborate.

Start your show career on the right foot by joining the Lenux Academy Show Team. Email us today!
