Training

“Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their Champion Character.”

- T Alan Armstrong

Hunterberry Hill Farm is a top notch training and boarding facility conveniently located in South Salem near Illahee Hills. We are a family owned and operated farm with a safe and secure atmosphere, and breathtaking views. Parents can feel equally comfortable staying to watch their children ride from our heated viewing room or viewing deck, or dropping their child off at our private facility with double gated entry, located in the secure Sunset Ridge Estates. Our open and airy barn with indoor arena provide a comfortable place for the horses and riders, to train year round. Your tack is kept safe, clean and dry in our heated tack room.

Adelyn Rowland is the head trainer. Riding since the age of 9, Adelyn has an array of experience in Dressage and Eventing, but her main focus is on Hunters, Jumpers, and Equitation. Adelyn was very successful competing in the Jr Equitation and Medal Classes which she believes can provide a strong foundation for young riders through the principle of “form is function”. She also is experienced in showing a variety of horses in Hunters and Jumpers. From training ponies and children in the cross rails on up to starting and finishing young horses for the Hunter and Jumper rings, Adelyn has done it all. She has a positive and encouraging teaching style, and no matter your age or skill level, she can take you where you and your horse want to go. Each lesson and training program is tailored to the individual needs of the horses and riders. Adelyn is constantly striving to better her riding, training, and horsemanship skills through continual training and attending clinics with the best the industry has to offer. She believes firmly that “If your trainer does not have a trainer, then you need a new trainer.” The best riders and trainers will be the first to admit they can still be learning no matter how experienced or successful they may be. The moment you stop learning is the moment you stop improving.
