Silvio Mazzoni Show Jumping Lessons at Rutledge Farm

Organizer: Ashley Douzant silvio.a.mazzoni@gmail.com 571-577-2106

Not only is Silvio admired for his outstanding ability to ride and train horses to the top levels in the sport of Show Jumping, but he is also a true teacher, that can help you to communicate and work with your horse, and make your jumping rounds smooth, forward and balanced.

No matter the level of horse and rider, Silvio focuses on the key points of straightness and position effectiveness, and allowing the horse to understand and perform its job correctly. He helps riders to avoid getting defensive with their hands, instead encouraging the horses to seek the bit even over fences. Each horse is an individual, and therefore each gymnastic or exercise will be tailored to exactly what your horse needs to improve his understanding and technique that day.

These are the reasons that Silvio was sought out as the United States Eventing Team coach for Show Jumping. But his own success at the Grand Prix level began in his teens in his native country Argentina. Trained by top jumper professionals as a junior, he competed in his first Grand Prix at 18 in 1990. His obvious talents brought him an opportunity to train and show horses as the professional for the top breeding farm in Argentina. His talent in the jumper ring combined with his strong background in dressage earned him a place on the Argentina’s Eventing Team in the 1998 Rome World Championships.

Moving to the United States in 2002, Silvio brought two horses and showed as high level “AA” jumpers and in the Grand Prix. He has since also trained horses and riders for both the hunter and jumper rings from Baby Greens to Grand Prix in California, Kentucky, Virginia and Florida.

Currently Silvio resides in Middleburg, Virginia and is teaching consistently at several farms in the area. Experience his first-class training program and you and your horse will feel the difference!
