Gridwork is a great way to train a horse to be agile, accurate and athletic. It also gives the opportunity for a rider to improve style, position and balance over a fence. Gridwork makes jumping easy, it improves a rider’s sense of rhythm and helps to develop any eye for distances.  The aim of gridwork is not to jump big fences but rather to improve confidence and ability in both horse and rider.

WHAT IS GRIDWORK?   Gridwork is a training system using poles and fences set at measured distances, also referred to as Gymnastic Jumping. Fences are set at these calculated distances so that the horse or pony takes a set number of strides and meets each fence at a good take off point. This builds his confidence. The distance set between the fences and poles will vary according to the size of the horse or pony and the length of his stride. A grid may be as simple as poles on the ground or for an experienced horse, a layout of quite challenging fences.

Due to the high demand rider numbers have increased to 6 in the following Horse Agility Park, Groundwork and Cross Country, and 5 in Gridwork.
