Thankyou to everyone that enquired or passed on our details regarding our 2 agistment spots. Both filled.
Attached is a blast from the past photo of Ella (Andalusian/T/Bred X) School horse and Barrie performing at one of our yearly Carousels. Good memories.

Agistment at our Academy is ideal for someone wanting to further their horses knowledge and their own skill level with regular coaching. Agistment costs, temporary and permanent, for those that enquired: Weekly cost $60: Add labour which includes preparing feeds and feeding out 3 times a day, unrugging and rugging as weather dictates $77 ($11/day), hay currently $63/week, manure collection $20, if owners cannot attend for farrier, dentist, etc. $15 to bring in, hold and put back out, but no extra fees for use of indoor, lights, etc. Hard feed cost and supply worked out to suit owner.

Lots of enquiries in response to our post re agistment so more info for those that had queries: Re us: lots of info on our website www.academyofdressage.com.au - Re cost of training: Whether horse or human $90/hour private if paid in advance or $100/hour when paid singly. School horse lessons $135 with discount or $150 singly. Getting too long so agistment costs on separate post.

We rarely have any vacancies but we have 2 at the moment. Temporary or permanent agistment available for riders who would like to board where they have expert help available. Indoor arena, covered yards for grooming, saddling, etc. Our horses live in 2 small herds of 4 horses, each herd on 10 acres of undulating treed land, fed 3 times/day, rugs off and on as weather dictates, etc. etc. Come and have a look. We are just off the S.E. Freeway near Bridgewater.

Our wonderful Manager Laura Jane (riding School Horse Toolman) and Sarah (riding School Horse Solitaire), who didn't expect she was going on a rideout with Laura and Barrie today and then playing around with some Pas de Deux work with Barrie and Krug in the indoor on their return. Perfect weather.
