Willow Ridge - Sport & Performance Horses

Willow Ridge - Sport & Performance Horses Balance & Harmony through Biomechanics. Welcome to Willow Ridge; a place where the care and comfort of the horse is first and foremost.
(1)

Where you'll find a small group of like-minded adult riders who have become supportive friends and family. Where riders of any breed of horse, discipline, or ability are welcome and encouraged. Where you can study and immerse in the principles of classical dressage, biomechanics and horsemanship. Where we work first for the preservation, enhancement, and improved soundness of the equine mind and b

ody and where care is customized to the individual. We strive for a holistic approach to development; one that balances training with nutrition, husbandry, correctly fitting tack, and mental and emotional health. Where competition is encouraged but never demanded, and that success in the show ring is trumped only by the successful cultivation of a deeper connection with our equine partners. We currently have a group of riders ranging from novice to 4th Level. Established in 2012, Willow Ridge is located on 23 picturesque acres near Hudsonville, MI. Here you will find a truly private retreat – close to town but worlds away. Willow Ridge is owned and operated by Brian & USDF Bronze Medalist Kimberly Dunlap

Fun! 🤩 That’s all I can really say. Edie handled the electric environment so well, she’s come such a long way from the explosive, reactive pony I started with. It’s what true partnership feels like - the kind you only get after years of working together. Having her here this weekend brought me so much joy. It’s not the prizes or the ribbons, but the gratitude I have to be able to do this that is what I’m most thankful for.

As always, Carrie Wilson was an amazing coach. I also had the luxury of having a groom this weekend, and Danae made my life so easy - I felt like I was on Showcation!!! What a blessing that was.

My fellow teammates at Wilson SportHorses were a blast to be with as well, and I’m infinitely happy that my own clients and were here to share this experience with me!!!

Oh, did I mention we got 2 qualifying scores 🤷‍♀️😜☺️🥰🙌👏👌

Huge thank you to , .farmers.elevator, .realestate, , and !!!

Pretty cool. Freestyle; where Artistry meets Science. ❤️🎶

We had a fantastic day 1 at the West Michigan Dressage Freestyle clinic, working with 5 different riders at various stages in their freestyle journey. Today’s focus was basics and choreography, and tomorrow we’ll be working with the music. I LOVE co-teaching these clinics with my bestie .ridge.equestrian — between the two of us, riders get an exceptional blend of dressage coaching and freestyle artistry. And the dynamic nature of working with auditors+ riders means that every freestyle is a team project!

This is for you!! You must be pre-registered to ensure your spot. Space is limited. We expect this to be a very educational and uplifting weekend. In addition to learning how to integrate further biomechanics techniques into your coaching program, this will also be a weekend of networking, support, and comradery!
