Training

We offer a variety of training services ranging from starting youngsters from scratch to giving older horses show experience. Our trainers, Mary Jane Whitcomb and Emily Hertz, have over 20 years experience breaking and training horses. They both have a real knack for treating each horse as an individual and for knowing how to get them to perform their best. With their expert help, Biscuit Hill consistently turns out well-behaved, confident horses that know what is expected of them

Our philosophy is based on a few basic principles: that horses perform best when they are given plenty of opportunity to be outside and “be horses” and that in order to extract the very best from a horse, a rider must understand what is going on in that particular horse’s head. This philosophy is incorporated into all aspects of barn life including lessons and training of young horses. We treat each horse and rider as an individual, understanding that each situation may require a different approach. The response by both horses and riders has been very positive.

Full training is offered at $950.00 per month this includes:

  • Daily mucking and bedding
  • Daily turn-out
  • 3 feedings per day
  • A minimum of 20 sessions per month. Sessions may include ground work, lunging or riding and will be determined by the needs of the particular horse.

We can also assist owners in marketing and selling horses sent to Biscuit Hill for training. Please contact us for more information.
