Whether you're just starting out or are an experienced rider, our dedicated expert instructors offer comprehensive equestrian education in horseback riding, horsemanship, and vital safety knowledge. Under the expert guidance of professional trainer Joanne Comber Jimenez, we tailor our programs to meet the unique needs of every rider, helping you achieve your individual goals. We offer specialized instruction in the following disciplines:

​

Hunter: This elegant discipline emphasizes the horse's graceful movement, refined style, and fluid jumping technique over natural-looking obstacles. Riders strive for a smooth, seemingly effortless round, showcasing harmony and partnership. 

 

Jumper: A thrilling and technically demanding discipline that tests the horse's athleticism, scope, and carefulness over a course of brightly colored obstacles. The objective is to jump cleanly and efficiently, often against the clock. 

 

Equitation: Focusing on the rider's skill, position, and effectiveness in guiding the horse. Equitation classes judge the rider's form and ability to execute precise movements, fostering a seamless connection and optimal performance across all disciplines.

 t

Dressage: Often referred to as the art of "horse ballet," this discipline centers on the harmonious development of the horse's natural athleticism and willing responsiveness through a series of prescribed movements performed from memory. Dressage emphasizes the horse's balance, rhythm, suppleness, and the rider's subtle communication through refined aids, culminating in an elegant and powerful partnership.

​

Competitive Horse Riding: For riders with competitive aspirations, this discipline encompasses the strategic thinking, mental fortitude, and horsemanship mastery required to excel in equestrian competitions across various disciplines in the show ring. Advanced students are invited to join Hamptons Pony's Equestrian Team and travel to a variety of horse shows recognized by local, regional, and national equestrian associations to compete with the finest riders in the country.
