What is Hunt Seat Equitation?
Hunt seat is a popular form of riding in the United States, recognized by the USHJA (United States Hunter/Jumper Association) and the United States Equestrian Federation, and in Canada. While hunt seat showing per se is not an Olympic discipline, many show jumping competitors began by riding in hunter and equitation classes before moving into the jumper divisions.
Hunt seat is a style of forward seat riding commonly found in North American horse shows. The hunt seat is based on the tradition of fox hunting. Hunt seat competition in North America includes both flat and over fences for show hunters, which judge the horse’s movement and form, and equitation classes, which judge the rider’s ability both on the flat and over fences.
