Hunter Jumper Training

Our Hunter Jumper Approach

How Hunter Jumper Training Works

Our hunter jumper program develops confident, careful jumpers with the smooth, consistent style that wins in the ring. We build from flatwork fundamentals through course work, creating horses that are brave, balanced, and a pleasure to ride.

01

Flatwork Foundation

Every great jumper starts on the flat. We develop balance, rhythm, and adjustability before ever approaching a fence, creating a solid base for jumping success.

Jump Training & Gymnastics

Through grid work, gymnastic exercises, and progressive fence training, we develop your horse's technique, scope, and confidence over fences.

02

Course Preparation

We prepare horses for the show ring with focus on pace, distances, turns, and the consistent style that judges reward in hunter and equitation classes.

Hunter Jumper Training for Every Level

From green hunters to competitive jumper divisions, we develop each horse with care, building the skills and confidence needed to perform in the ring.

What Our Hunter Jumper Program Covers

Our hunter jumper program develops confident, careful horses and composed, effective riders. We build flatwork foundations first, then progressively develop jumping skills that translate into consistent, competitive rounds.

Divisions We Prepare For

  • Hunters: We develop horses that move with quality gaits, jump in good form, and maintain an even, ground-covering pace. Emphasis is on manners, consistency, and presentation.
  • Jumpers: We build horses that are scopey, adjustable, and quick-thinking. Training focuses on accuracy, pace control, and the ability to handle technical courses.
  • Equitation: Rider position, effectiveness, and ability to produce correct courses are central. We prepare riders who look polished and ride with precision.

Our Training Approach

Every horse starts with flatwork. A strong foundation on the flat—including adjustability within gaits, straightness, and responsiveness to the leg—makes for a safer, more successful horse over fences. We use gymnastic exercises, grids, and course work to build technique and confidence progressively.

Horses in our program learn to meet fences in balance, jump in good form, and land organized for the next task. We never over-face a horse or drill fences. Quality training produces quality results.
