STABLE Pro and Ridely Partner to Connect Trainer Business Management with Horse Welfare Education
STABLE Pro, a business management platform built specifically for horse trainers, today announced a partnership with Ridely, the award-winning equestrian training and horse welfare app. Together, the companies will give trainers access to horse welfare education and tracking tools alongside their daily business operations, plus the ability to offer their students online training resources to support learning between in-person lessons.
Horse trainers and barn managers juggle the business side of their operations while staying current on best practices for the horses in their care. The partnership will give STABLE Pro users access to Ridely’s Horse Welfare Score tools and educational resources, creating a connection between running a training business and implementing evidence-based welfare practices. Trainers can also offer their students special access to Ridely’s expert-led courses and training content as an added perk, giving clients tools to continue their education between lessons while reinforcing what they learn in the saddle.
“Horse welfare isn’t separate from running a training operation, it’s the heart of every decision, every program, every lesson,” said Bee Strydom, CGO of Ridely. “Partnering with STABLE Pro makes it easier for trainers to track and demonstrate their commitment to welfare, and gives their students the online resources to keep progressing between lessons.”
“The best trainers know a successful program is about more than invoicing and scheduling, it takes welfare-focused decisions that build trust and improve outcomes for the horses,” said James Dexter, Founder and Managing Director of STABLE Pro. “Through Ridely, trainers get science-based education at their fingertips and can share it directly with their students, while STABLE Pro keeps the business side simple and easy, so their focus stays where it belongs – on the horses.”
STABLE Pro, with its strong presence in the US, Canada, and Mexico, has recently expanded to the UK, Europe, Australia, and Brazil, which are areas where Ridely’s welfare-first approach already has strong recognition among trainers, universities, federations and organizations. The partnership creates a bridge between markets, helping Ridely scale its welfare education across North America’s large training community while STABLE Pro grows its European footprint.
Further details on the partnership and available features will be announced in the coming months.
