Meet Our Horses

The IHSA community shares a passion for horses. IHSA coaches and riders are grateful for all of the wonderful horses that are the heart and soul of our sport. From the tried-and-true lesson horse who teaches new riders, to the decorated show horse who found a new career as part of a college program, our horses are key to the success of the IHSA. Take a moment to learn about some of our much-loved horses.

Help us celebrate our horses.

Please submit a profile of your favorite IHSA horse and high-resolution photographs (see our IHSA Photography Guide) by following the instructions in our Featured Horse and Rider Submission form and send them to media@ihsainc.com.

Kadena is a Paint/American Quarter Horse cross mare and her team thinks she’s the best horse ever. Kadena is not always an easy ride, but she has come so far in her training and athleticism over the past several months. She and team member Selah Holland, have been inseparable since they started working together last year, and both of them have learned immensely from one another and have made tremendous progress.
