Don't forget...A Few Spots Available for Boarders!

Good morning!
We hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed it with friends and family. On this chilly Monday morning, we wanted to remind everyone that there are still a few board openings at Southwind for the winter! Our experienced staff all live on the property and help maintain a routine that keeps our horses happy and healthy.  Not only do we have the facilities you need to train your competition horse, there are also miles of trails for conditioning and pleasure.  All types of riding are welcome, as are your own blacksmith and veterinarian.  We have always emphasized a relaxed atmosphere that is essential to every horse’s well-being regardless of discipline.  Our location in Damascus, Montgomery County, MD provides easy access to I-270 and I-70.

PS- did we mention that we have an indoor arena!?!?

Be sure to check us out and contact owner Sheri Thornley today to set up your appointment!

Winter Workouts for You and Your Horse

Good morning,

Today we are sharing an article from thehorse.com entitled 'Winter Workouts.' Here at Southwind as you probably know, we do have an indoor arena which makes it much easier for our boarders to be able to continue their training programs through the winter.

If you are new to the farm or have access to an indoor arena over winter for the first time, this article is for you! It gives a great overview of some ways to keep you and your horse in shape this winter.

"Winter workouts are valuable for maintaining fitness, preserving training, and promoting mental well-being. Winter exercise also provides an opportunity to fix problems in a horse's training and prepare both horse and rider for the upcoming competition or riding season.


In addition to their exceptional credentials as experienced riders and trainers, all three have equine scientific backgrounds, lending their knowledge of the horse's physiology to their fitness plans."
