HUNTER JUMPER PROGRAM
Each individual training program is customized to meet the needs of both horse and rider, with a focus on long-term development and goal-oriented progression.
Hunter Jumper Program
Riders eligible for our Hunter Jumper Program either lease or own their own horses or ponies. If you do not currently have your own mount but would like to find out more about how we can make this transition, please inquire about leasing and or purchasing opportunities, so that we can help you move toward your goals.
If you would like to have the benefit of riding horses that are a part of our lesson program, please inquire about our Riding Academy. Many of our riders start in our Riding Academy and graduate to our Hunter Jumper program!
Please send all inquiries about lessons/training to kaitlyn@empireequestrian.ca
Our hunter jumper program is dedicated to developing both horses and riders from the fundamental stages through to success on the A circuit through the upper levels. We emphasize building a strong foundation in flatwork, position, horsemanship and jumping to ensure riders and horses are well-prepared to progress through the levels with confidence and skill. Riders enrolled in our Hunter Jumper program can decide if they want to pursue showing, or if they would like to develop their skills for at home training use only.
Each individual training program is customized to meet the needs of both horse and rider, with a focus on long-term development and goal-oriented progression.
Our holistic approach includes individualized nutrition, veterinary care, and bodywork to keep horses performing at their best.
Ahead of each show season, we work with riders and their families to map out a tailored competition schedule and training plan, setting goals and preparing for the year ahead with purpose. We help to handle all prerequisites and show entries so that you can start your show season confidently and organized.
We specialize in breeding, starting and producing young horses, and frequently assist with horse purchases and sales to ensure the right fit for every rider.
With a clear focus on the hunter and jumper rings, we are committed to developing competitive, confident, and well-rounded athletes that pursue long, fulfilling careers!
“Our daughter has been riding at Empire Equestrian for the past six years, and it’s truly been the most incredible journey. Kaitlyn has been an outstanding trainer. Her calm, supportive nature and deep knowledge of this sport have helped shape our daughter into the confident rider she is today. We truly can’t imagine this journey without her and feel so lucky to be part of such a supportive and inspiring family!”
