Equestrian


Smith College Equestrian is a fun and supportive club team that welcomes riders of all levels - from those new to the saddle to experienced equestrians already competing. Our program offers both a non-competitive "club" and a competitive "team," providing flexible opportunities for members to grow their riding skills and connect with fellow horse enthusiasts. Our 15-member show team competes in hunt-seat equitation through the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA), focusing on position, balance, and finesse in both flat and jumping classes. We’re proud to train at Muddy Brook Farm in Amherst, where riders bond with wonderful horses. Whether you’re aiming for the show ring or enjoying the simple joy of riding, Smith College Equestrian is a community built on teamwork, learning, and a shared passion for horses.
