DISCIPLINE SPOTLIGHT: SHOWING

This week we speak to national judge, competitor, president of Western Cape Showing and all-round equestrian enthusiast Taryn Stebbing about the beautiful discipline of showing, and what it stands to offer all horses and riders.

Showing is an equestrian discipline which strives to exhibit perfect examples of particular types or breeds of horses and ponies. It encourages attention to detail and pride of presentation, and offers a wonderful opportunity to develop a good grounding in horsemanship, sportsmanship and a love and appreciation for horses from an early age into adulthood.

We talk about the basic classes and rules, how you can get started, and what skills you and your horse need to enter the gritty and glamorous world of showing!
