Discover the Value of an IMHA Membership

The International Mustang Horse Association is more than an organization — it’s a movement dedicated to celebrating the versatility, resiliency, and potential of the American Mustang. Becoming a member means joining a community that believes in education, advocacy, and creating real opportunities for mustangs and the people who love them. Here’s what your membership brings to the table.

1. Be Part of a Purpose-Driven Community

IMHA exists to empower mustang owners and support these incredible horses long after adoption day. When you join, you’re aligning with a mission centered on connection, responsible horsemanship, and helping mustangs thrive in their new homes. Whether you’re a first-time adopter, experienced trainer, or simply a mustang enthusiast, membership gives you a meaningful place in a growing community.

2. Access to Shows, Points, and Recognition

As an IMHA member, you can enter sanctioned events, compete in approved classes, and earn points toward year-end awards and lifetime achievements. Membership also grants access to specific divisions — Youth, Adult Amateur, and Adult Professional — each designed to support riders at every level. If you’ve been looking for a home where your mustang’s progress and performance can truly be recognized, this is it.

3. Unlock More Opportunities Through Mustang Registration

Once you are a member, you can register your mustang through IMHA. Registration provides your horse with an official IMHA number and certificate and opens the door to earning and tracking points throughout their competition career. Whether your horse is newly adopted or fully titled, IMHA registration supports their journey from the very beginning.

4. Education, Networking, and Support

Mustang ownership is a beautiful journey — and sometimes a challenging one. IMHA membership comes with access to resources, educational opportunities, and a network of riders, trainers, and supporters who understand the unique needs of these horses. From clinics and training opportunities to connection with fellow mustang owners, IMHA helps you find the encouragement and practical support you need.

5. Join at the Most Exciting Time

IMHA is growing rapidly, and joining now means becoming part of its foundation. Early members play a meaningful role in shaping programs, events, rules, and the future of the association. As IMHA builds momentum, founding members will always be recognized for helping bring this vision to life.

6. Enjoy the Practical Perks

Membership isn’t only about purpose — it’s also about fun. With IMHA, you gain access to shows, year-end awards, clinics, challenges, and community events designed to highlight what mustangs can do. Whether you’re competing seriously or simply celebrating progress with your horse, IMHA provides opportunities that make the journey more rewarding.
