We are located within beautiful Del Mar Horsepark and enjoy the awesome amenity of being local for both the numerous A-Level as well as county level horse shows that are held here. Our students are able to compete in and watch all of these show nearly year round! In addition, we have a covered arena to use during inclement weather.
All of the horses that live at Del Mar Horsepark are required to be under a trainers program. The care of the stalls and the feeding of the hay is taken care of by 22nd District Agriculture, State of California as the land that Del Mar Horsepark is located on is owned by the state. All other services are provided by Concord Equestrian Center.
We utilize a balanced program to help our horses and riders develop not only the skills to succeed in the show arena but also better physical abilities and a deeper knowledge of what is happening and why. In addition to practicing both flat and jumping exercises in private and group lessons, every member of our show team works on the lounge line to help pinpoint and address problems with their position that hinder the performance of their mount. Additionally, if old enough, they will lounge their own horses to learn more about the horse's movement , confirmations and tendencies. Our trainers also create a program balancing the use of such training aids as the pesoa rig and/or long-lining as well as flat exercises to help the horses be the best athletes they can be. These techniques have proven very successful in helping clients whom have come to us with major obstacles, such as the inability to get their lead changes, reach their goals. If this is all greek to you and you want to learn more then you need to visit us!
Through the above we have been lucky to offer clients who have come to us with their own horses an opportunity to 'step up' their riding and show experience. The advantage of being located here in Del Mar Horse park is the multitudes of both county and A level shows that are held here Spring through Fall. Our students benefit not only from participating in these shows but also by watching and learning. As stated above, the training and showing part of our program is simply an extension of the fundamentals we develop starting in the riding academy. Whether a rider enters the training program through our own riding academy or if they come to us with prior riding experience we carefully go over and reinforce the fundamentals that we believe are the key to success whether competing in crossrails or at 4'.
