Jack Burns

Jack Burns

English

Jack offers a thoughtful, individualized process rooted in classical principles and shaped by real-time insight.

His practice is in dressage and working equitation, but his approach is shaped by a broad and deep background across disciplines. He specializes in working with horses who’ve been rushed, confused, or shut down by conventional systems—and with discouraged riders who know there must be a better way.

For more information about working with Jack, please contact him directly.
