About
--------------
Steps Hi Equestrian Center is dedicated to breeding, training, and showing top quality three day eventing horses. Our expansive facilities include dressage and jumping schooling arenas, a full size multi use indoor arena, large turnouts, multiple stabling options will roomy box stalls, a cross country schooling course, and trails out to a small private beach. We are a short trailer ride from multiple top class competitions and pride ourselves on showing up to every event we can, no matter if it's a small schooling show or a world class championship weekend.
Training
------------------
At Steps Hi Equestrian we pride ourselves on starting our young horses slowly and giving them a base in correct, classical training. We don't fall prey to flashy trends or quick fixes, every horse in our care has their own program and schedule to ensure a quality horse comes out at the end. We take in horses for full training, tune ups, problem solving and behavior management, foal starting, sales prep, and everything in between. Our focus is in three day eventing and dressage training, but we're open minded and are happy to work with just about anyone!
Sales
-----------
We primarily sell horses we have bred ourselves, however we occasionally take on horses for sales prep and commission. Prices and details of prep and commission sales vary based on program, horse, and length of stay at our facilities. We are always happy to create a "custom breeding" were you can chose sire and dam from our stud facilities for your very own dream foal! More deals about our breeding program are under the "breeding" section.

Breeding
----------------
Steps Hi Equestrian Stud prides ourselves on producing top quality sport horses and improving the future of the Iberian Warmblood breed.
We focus on crossing thoroughbreds and andalusians to produce this unique and talented breed, we also cross out with akhal tekes, arabian crosses, and several other breeds when appropriate. The iberian warmblood is an athletic light warmblood that is ideally suited to eventing, combining the athletic build and lightness of the thoroughbred with the classic grace, boldness, and bone of the andalusian for a truly enviable equine athlete! Horses bred at the SHE stud are known for their athleticism, train-ability, bravery, and good nature.
