What are good horse jumps for beginners?

Learning to ride over jumps should be gradual. Ground poles and cavaletti are a great way to learn skills like steering the horse straight to a target, training your eyes, and working on your balance and position when the horse adjusts the length and height of steps. For horses, these are excellent for learning footwork and improving strength and balance. Ground pole and cavaletti patterns are endlessly available online. Start with walking and trotting over single poles laid around the arena. Build up to circles, serpentines, angles, and lines of poles set to specific distances between each other. Cross bars, or cross rails, are an ideal jump for beginners because the lowest point is the center. You can build a crossbar using cavaletti or jump standards with jump cups.

What are good horse jumps to train with?

There is a variety of high-quality horse jumping equipment to work with. Jumps for horses come in many materials, colors, dimensions, and features, depending on the application. Whatever the application is, Premier Equestrian provides horse jump items, including standards, fillers, flower boxes, gates, Cavaletti blocks, and more. Our show jumps are manufactured from safe and durable materials to withstand the rigors of training and time.

What is the difference between dressage and show jumping?

The most obvious difference is that dressage is all done without obstacles. Dressage focuses more on the precision of movements inside a dressage arena with dressage letters. Horse and rider develop and demonstrate specific, progressive skills at each level during a dressage test, from introductory to Grand Prix. There are different styles within horse jumping, like hunters, equitation, derby, cross country, and show jumping. Each has its own style, rules, and challenges. Jumping equipment can be very specific within each jumping style. Hunters are judged by the horse’s form, style, and smoothness over fences. Cross country utilizes natural jumps, like logs, water, and ditches. Show jumping usually has airy, colorful jumps, and riders navigate a jump course with the fewest faults and fastest time. Eventing is the equivalent of a triathlon. The horse and rider combination competes in dressage, cross country, and show jumping, all in one competition.
