Hunter/equitation trainer Shelley Campf is a top West Coast hunter/equitation trainer and rider, who wrote a training article for Practical Horseman magazine, “Get ‘In the Zone’ for Better Jumping.” In the article, she describes her training philosophy and program that teaches riders to allow their horses to jump rather than feeling the need to make their horses jump. Listen as Shelley speaks with her one-time student Practical Horseman Editor Sandy Oliynyk about how a rider should NOT focus on seeing a distance but instead concentrate on track, rhythm, pace and rider position. This allows the horse to focus on his job—jumping his best.
