United States Eventing Association

From the time we begin jumping, we are always working on perfecting the canter.

The best instructors have their own methods for helping their students recognize this “perfect” canter.

For Martin Douzant, experience is everything. As the owner and operator of The Frame Sport Horses based in The Plains, Virginia, Douzant has been able to build a successful training business on a foundation of great education, involvement across equestrian disciplines, and a distinct reverence for the horse.
