Tucked away in the sunny hills of Camporosso, Italy, just a short drive from Monaco, Liguria Jumping is a new hotspot for equestrian excellence. More than just a training facility, it’s a family’s dream turned reality – a place where young riders can grow and thrive.
From dream to reality
The journey of Liguria Jumping started with a simple idea. The founding family, passionate about showjumping, realized there weren’t many cutting-edge training options in their region. So, they decided to change that. “We wanted to create a space where ambitious riders could reach their full potential without sacrificing family, education, or their roots,” says Gary Fitzgerald, the driving force behind Liguria Jumping.
At the core of Liguria Jumping is the Elite Showjumping Program, led by international 5* showjumper, Richard Howley, currently ranked in the top 100 in the world, and the skilled Anna Pezzoli, a highly experienced Italian coach with over 15 years of experience. Together, they craft personalized training programs for every rider. From regular sessions to immersive camps, it’s all about helping riders grow on and off the saddle.
But it’s not just about training. Liguria Jumping ensures riders can keep up with their studies too! With a dedicated study space and flexible schedules, young athletes can balance school and sport. “We believe equestrian excellence shouldn’t mean giving up a well-rounded education,” says Howley.
Riders on the program will also benefit from a holistic approach to their development – with support from a mindset expert, as well as regular personal training with an accredited fitness coach.
World-class facilities for horse and rider
Liguria Jumping is a haven for horses and riders alike. Top-tier indoor and outdoor arenas, luxurious stables, and a specialized fitness centre make it an ambitious competitor’s dream come true. Every detail reflects the founders’ dedication to high standards and well-being. “Our goal was to build a place where horses are treated with the utmost care,” says Fitzgerald. “Their welfare is at the heart of everything we do.”
Liguria Jumping isn’t just a place to train – it’s a springboard to the big leagues of equestrian sport. By combining expert coaching with a supportive environment, it helps riders chase their dreams without compromise.
Whether you’re an aspiring rider or the parent of one, Liguria Jumping is the place where potential turns into performance. It’s not just about winning medals; it’s about building a lifelong passion for showjumping.
