Clients who wish to improve their competition performance may bring their ponies or horses to Waterfall Stud Farm for tuition. Here they will have the best of facilities for learning. On certain occasions, and depending on location, Seán may travel to the owner's stable to give tuition. Seán also invites students from other countries to come and stay with their horse or pony. It can be arranged for such clients to compete at shows during their stay in Ireland.

Horses:

Seán trains and competes showjumping horses for owners. This includes the initial training of horses from 3 years of age.  Individual owner's needs are catered for and horses can be competed on a weekly basis at any time of the year.

Horses are treated with the highest of professionalism and particular care is given to ensure a healthy anatomy and physiology during preparation for competition.

Extensive flatwork training is given as a routine part of each horse's development. Seán has an excellent record with young horses and has been in the prizes at the famous Millstreet Horse Show Discovery Finals in 2007 (4th) and 2008 (2nd).

 Initial Training of showjumping horses
