Working Student Postions

      

Pleasant Valley Academy has working student positions open most times of the year. Students will work in stable with horses in exchange for free riding lessons, coaching, and/or horse training. Beginner students will be taught to work in stable management: cleaning stalls, grooming and bathing horses, assisting vet and farrier, and tacking up and untacking. Advanced students may have the opportunity to participate in training horses. All students will have the opportunity to watch, learn, and ask questions about horses being trained at many different disciplines and training levels. Formal internships and apprenticeships also available.
