Joie de Vivre attends local and “AA” level horse shows in the Hunter/Jumper and Dressage disciplines. Although sometimes you may see us at local combined training tests as well for fun.

Joie de Vivre farm feels that by attending horse shows riders can judge where they and their horses are in their training and learn from their experiences and judges remarks. We like to keep horse shows a fun and positive experience for both horse and rider, therefore we do not make horse shows a mandatory part of our lesson curriculum. We like for our horses to enjoy their showing experience and enjoy getting out of the barn, that we also regularly participate in playdays, clinics, schooling days, pair paces, and trail rides. Check out our gallery page for pics from horse shows, and our news page for how our horses and riders did at the last show!
