Training
Kirsten Gray and Jannike Gray are offering training services at Sonnenhof Equestrian Center and, in limited instances, off-site.
Our team of trainers stands united in believing in the systematic training and education of the horse, using lunging, long-lining, dressage, poles, cavallettis, Hangbahn, hacking and jumps in our training approach. We strongly believe in furthering our education consistently, and are active students of David Collins. All of us are USDF / USEF Medalists, and we proudly participate in many clinics around the area to further our knowledge and skill level.

Sonnenhof Gear

Please inquire about how you can get our logo on your favorite pieces of clothing. We also have some shirts picked out as well as a winter jacket for the colder season.
At Sonnenhof Equestrian Center we offer a customized boarding plan and 'artgerechte Haltung', which is a German term translating into "species appropriate horse keeping". This concept makes all our horses very happy: We explore who likes each other, who likes to be outside 24/7 during summer months, who is more comfortable with a paddock buddy etc.
We realize that every horse is different and has different needs. Whether you have a horse who needs to live outside, or one that requires maximum/minimum turnout, we are able to accommodate your needs. We also make sure that you are NOT paying for services you don't need; all services are customized on a as-needed basis.
All of the boarding prices listed below include:
2-3 Grain feedings per day (16 cups max., quality Purina Feeds)
3-4 Hay feedings per day
Daily cleaning of stall and paddock
Daily turnout (weather permitting) for up to 9 hours
