The Online Show Horse School House

Welcome to E-Quine Academy! Our courses provide an interactive look into the Show Horse World. Students are provided with curriculum, take home learning opportunities, videos, guest speakers, and virtual classroom meetings. 

Each level consists of 4 classes which may be taken in any order. Classes are designed to be completed in one week but students may complete them at their own pace. Participants can choose to complete all 4 classes in each level or they can pick and choose classes. Participants who fully complete all 4 classes will receive an Equine Academy ribbon for each class level.

We offer courses for Show Horse enthusiasts of all ages. For your younger rider, please check out our Junior Courses, specifically tailored to the equestrian under the age of 12.
