Willow Grove Conservatory for Equestrian Studies

The wisdom of the past
illuminating the future

A conservatory is a specialized school focused on a specific art or skill, drawing from both history and modern discoveries. I am here to educate all who are interested in the equestrian arts and sciences. Education that is clear, efficient, fair, connective, and utilitarian.

Conservation is the promotion and preservation of what is rare and valuable. Our conservation efforts focus on:

  • Critically endangered Hackney Horses & Highland Ponies

  • The traditions and safe practice of Carriage Driving

  • Légèreté-an ancient French riding methodology and UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage

This is the mission of Willow Grove

“Receive the light and impart it”


”It's infinitely harder to challenge YOURSELF to raise your skills so you can teach the horse in equity and health than to challenge the horse while allowing yourself to stay the same.”

Linda Kaye Hollingsworth-Jones
