The ST Instructor Program is designed as a membership to give you the flexibility to learn and grow at your own pace.

Instead of feeling rushed to finish everything in a set time, you can progress at your own pace and give you and your horse the time it needs to develop naturally, without feeling pressured by deadlines.

The membership structure also ensures you get ongoing support and resources whenever you need them.

Plus, many instructors love staying on after the initial two years to keep learning and being part of our community, knowing that growth is a continuous process. Instead of a course that ends, our membership provides an environment where you can keep improving, receive ongoing feedback, and adapt to new challenges over time.

The membership structure also makes it more affordable and easier to spread out the investment over time, rather than having to pay a large sum upfront.

Plus, it offers continuous access to resources, community, and support rather than a one-time learning experience, so you can benefit from regular updates, coaching, and an evolving community.

The ST Instructor Membership is at least a two-year commitment. While you can become tool certified in six months—and some experienced members may even complete the full instructor certification in 12 months—the two years ensure you receive continuous support, not only in training your horse but also as you start teaching, growing your student base, and even developing your business.

This isn’t just a program; it’s a membership designed to keep you connected as part of the global ST Instructor network, where "together is better."

The membership structure also makes it more affordable and easier to spread out the investment over time, rather than having to pay everything upfront.

You can choose between two payment options: paying €597/month for 24 months or two annual payments of €5970.

Both options give you full access to the resources and support needed to become a certified ST Instructor.

Once you’ve completed the two years in the program, you’ll have the opportunity to transition to one of our ongoing memberships.

• STeady Growth is €297/month, designed for those who want to keep improving with weekly guidance and personalized feedback.
• STable Support is €137/month for maintaining progress with monthly Touchstone guidance.

Whichever path you choose, you’ll stay licensed and featured on our website, keep using the ST Instructor logo, get support, and remain part of the inspiring ST Instructor Network.

The membership type you select (monthly or annual) will remain the same for the initial two years. After that, you can choose a different membership tier based on the level of support you want moving forward.

You’ll have access to a wealth of resources, personalized coaching, and our global community of ST Instructors. This support will help you master the skills needed to become a successful instructor, regardless of the membership option you choose.

No, both the monthly and annual memberships provide the same comprehensive support, including personalized coaching, live sessions, and access to our global community. The choice is purely based on what payment structure works best for you.

We understand that life can be unpredictable, and sometimes things don’t go as planned. The great thing about the ST Instructor Program is that it's a membership, and there are no strict deadlines—you can take the time you need to work through challenges at your own pace. Even during difficult times, you’ll remain part of the ST Instructor network, where we’re here to support you and your horse. You can continue your journey whenever you’re ready, and we’ll be right here to help you get back on track.

The ST Instructor Program is designed to be flexible. While it typically takes about two years to complete tool certification, earn the basic certifications, and achieve the full ST Instructor Diploma, you can progress at your own pace with no strict deadlines. Some instructors reach Grade 2 within two years, while others prefer to take three years to complete the basic certifications. There is no right or wrong way to do it—you can just take the time it takes.
