Everything you need to find the right trainer: by discipline, location and suitability!

Whether you are completely new to riding or have a favorite discipline, finding new trainers is not an easy task. For the novice, selecting a discipline is usually the direct consequence of sticking with whatever you were initially taught. Did you actually decide that horse jumping was right for you when you showed up for your very first riding lesson? Or, that you were truly passionate about barrel horse racing? Did you have any clue about the difference between dressage schooling and horse polo when you climbed into the saddle for the very first time? And, what's the difference between trail riding and trail horse training?

Equilink.com wants to make selecting a discipline a more informed choice. Because, while barrel horse racing, horse jumping, performance riding and horse polo are among the most exciting disciplines, they're not for everyone. For someone seeking the joy of the equestrian arts without as much potential risk, dressage schooling and trail horse training might be the best way to go.

Horse jumping requires not only highly experienced trainers, but well behaved and experienced horses. You'll be making split second decisions regarding speed and the "distances," to ride to your fences. This is a highly technical sport and yet thrilling sport. Horse polo, unless you are fortunate to live near a facility that caters to the needs of the casual polo player, can require a rather substantial commitment, given that the serious polo player requires 7 to 8 "polo ponies," merely to compete. But, it is, without question, one of the most exciting team sports ever invented.

Performance Riding and Barrel Horse Racing are both Western disciplines that require tremendous agility, courage, and the need for speed! If you've always fancied yourself a cowboy or cowgirl at heart, these could be the right disciplines for you. If you're drawn to the Western disciplines but want something a little tamer, then you should seriously consider Trail Horse Training.

Dressage Schooling both serves riders of every discipline and is a spectacular sport in its own right. Dressage is viewed as "classical training," and is based on a series of gymnastic movements giving the rider an exceptional sense of control over her horse.

With Equilink.com, finding trainers by discipline, showing history and by region has never been more intuitive. We feature 1,000's of well groomed organic listings, rather than just a few paid listings per category, or a disorganized mess of algorithm driven results.
