Showing Opportunities

We are an active, family-oriented hunter-jumper & equitation barn priding ourselves on the development of our riders as competent horsemen and women, both in the saddle and in the stable.

Our goal is to assist each of our students to attain their equestrian dreams and aspirations, guiding them to be the best they can be, while emphasizing fun, friends and sportsmanship.

Kuruka provides a range of showing opportunities to riders of all ages.

Bronze Level Team

Our Bronze Team is a great stepping stone into showing for green horses or first time show riders. Our Bronze team attends multiple different bronze level shows around the area but our large team attends the Carrot & Stick Horse Shows at the Essa Agriplex. The classes available from cross rail hunters and jumpers, to the .85m and development hunters along with aged equitation classes and flat divisions. We enjoy watching new riders experience this step on the bronze team, and we want to encourage and support you to have fun with your horse at competitions and help you set goals.

We have great moms, dads, grandparents and friends that support our community of riders. We know it takes a village to support this sport. So, we encourage everyone to strive to be their best within a family-oriented environment.

We promote good sportsmanship… We value the rights, feelings, and property of others and strive to maintain an environment that is fun and healthy for everyone.
