5 star rider. No star fisherman 🫣🥊🐟

This bending line is all about adjustability and balance. ⚖️

Ride the first vertical through the bending line to the second vertical, then continue on to the final fence in the opposite direction. While I set this line up with 5 strides one way and 4 the other, don’t get married to the numbers. A balanced, accurate turn may ride as an even 5-to-5 or 4-to-4 depending on your horse and track.

The key is maintaining rhythm and shape through the turn. If you cut in or fall out, the distance won’t work. Focus on keeping your horse straight to each fence, staying balanced through the bend, and letting the quality of the track determine the stride.

Save this one for your next jump school. 👇

Can’t believe this little mare is still on the market 😱

Brownie is a 2014 OTTB mare with plenty of novice experience and a willing, forward-thinking ride. Consistent in her work and great to have in a program, she brings valuable mileage and confidence to the table.

At 15.3h, she’s well-suited for a young rider or petite adult amateur looking for an experienced partner with a good work ethic and a bit of personality.

At , we take our spa days very seriously 🧖‍♀️🚨

While I’m taking some time to recharge, Lottie is doing the same with . Using both 660nm red light and 850nm near-infrared light, to support circulation, recovery, and overall wellness on the surface and deep tissues.

A little self-care for me, a little recovery care for my horses. Sounds like a perfect day to us!

One year can make quite a difference. ✨

Looking back at where Max started compared to where he is today, it’s incredible to see how much this young stallion has grown. Not just in his training, but in his confidence, strength, and understanding of the work.

Developing young horses is never a straight line, but watching Max begin to come into his own has made every step worthwhile.

The future is bright for this horse, and I can’t wait to see where the next year takes him! 🐴🤍

“The Circle of Success” doing exactly what it was designed to do. 🤩

A simple setup with zero room for a drifting canter. Every turn changes the distance, every stride shows up somewhere, and somehow the circle feels smaller every lap. 😂

Not always pretty, but definitely effective. 👀🔥
