Alden Leavitt Equestrian

Hello, Horse Friends!
I’m excited to share that I have openings for lessons, training rides, and all things equestrian during the week and on weekends! I’m located in Greenville, SC and open to commute to Tryon, Landrum, Anderson, Clemson, and more.
With a solid background in starting young horses and developing FEI-level competitors in both Eventing and Show Jumping, I take an individualized and patient approach to training. I’ve competed up to the FEI 3-star level and 1.30m in show jumping, and I also have experience in hunters. I believe in building a strong bond and mutual respect from the ground up.
If you’re looking for a fresh perspective, want to advance your riding journey, or are facing a challenge you can’t quite overcome, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would love to work with you!
Looking forward to connecting and happy trails!
Alden

Saying goodbye to Little Orchard and Tryon this week brought a wave of emotions and reflections. Over the past four years, I’ve been incredibly fortunate to cherish beautiful memories, ride some amazing horses, and be inspired by outstanding people. It’s been a journey of self discovery where I’ve learned invaluable lessons.

I’m immensely grateful to everyone who has supported and encouraged me throughout this chapter. Horse back riding is a demanding sport and I could not have achieved what I did without each of you who made it possible.

I will forever carry with me the lessons, memories, and friendships I have made over the years. Here’s to embracing the future with gratitude and excitement. Cheers to the next chapter! 🐎✨

Currently available to be seen in Tryon! Won’t last long !! 💗🦄🐎 PM for more info.

He’s easy, straightforward, and has all the talent and exceptional movement. Miles in the 3ft hunters, jumpers, and novice eventing. Future hack winner or dressage superstar. He is the perfect partner for someone who wants to do a bit of everything and get their Bronze in the dressage ring. Easy enough for anyone to keep producing! He’s a 10 mover and loves to trail ride! He’s truly one of kind.

The best thing about riding is the people you meet and the challenges you overcome. I had a wonderful month in Ocala overcoming many obstacles and growing as rider. There’s so many ups and downs with this sport, but when you have the right guidance what you thought was impossible seems to come at ease. Thank you for all your help and support. I’m so grateful to be a part of such an incredible team!!! 💙🦄🌴

love this place I call home 💙

It’s been a busy winter at ALE but all the hard work is paying off!! Criss Cross made the move up to 1.15 with ease this past weekend bringing home the blue! 🥇We have hit the ground running at and can’t wait for the rest of the season! 💙 Thank you to all my support team and owners that make this all possible!
