Training Horse / Rider

Training Philosophy

At Green Haven Stables, we strive to bring out the best in both the horse and the rider. We focus on the basics of riding, including rhythm, relaxation, impulsion, straightness, and finally, collection.

This focus on flatwork provides riders with a foundation to develop the tools they need for success over jumps and in the show ring. We frequently work on grids and courses at home to hone the skills needed in the show ring.

Scott has a great eye for what each horse and rider combination needs to focus on to reach their goals.

From Grass Roots To Grand Prix

Information:

If you are looking to expand your horse training journey, look no further than our program! We train horses and riders from grassroots to Grand Prix. We currently have space available for training at our stable. Our team competes on the Ontario “A” Circuit and frequently travels to gold shows at Angelstone, Caledon Equestrian Park, Ottawa Equestrian Tournaments, and the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair.

We also extend our travels to the United States, visiting venues such as the World Equestrian Centre.

The horse comes first at Green Haven. We will teach you about the rhythm of your horses natural movement, and how to work with your horse to create the best partnership possible.

We understand that every horse and rider combination are unique. Therefore, our program is tailored to meet the needs of each individual we work with. We look forward to helping you and your horse reach your goals and beyond!
