Team KCH
Training softness from the ground up
Established in 2016, the KCH brand has grown and evolved into a multifaceted equine business. The business started purely as a training service with the bred and butter of the operation being young horse starts. Since then we have developed our coaching services, campaigning seasons, breeding program and entertainment team.
Our Approach
Our methods centre around developing a partnership between people and horses. The aim being to produce horses that are a willing partner that offers to contribute and enjoys their work. When working with horses our approach focuses on building an in depth foundation that encourages problem solving skills, confidence & softness.
Over years of starting young horses under saddle, training, competing and coaching we have developed a structured program consisting of simple steps that build confidence, feel, balance & strength for both horses and their riders. Our approach uses both groundwork techniques as well as ridden exercises, we are firm believers that training should start well before we are ready to get in the saddle. We are proud to have seen horses come through our programs over the years to excel in their disciplines such as show riding, dressage, challenge/draft, rodeo, jumping & racing.
The Valley
When we purchased "The Valley", 200 picturesque acres at the foothills of Mount Kaputar National Park, we knew we wanted to build a safe & functional facility. Not only do we wish it to feel like horse paradise, but a welcome space for riders to hone their craft as well. Whether your horse has been with us for training, you've joined us for a clinic or come for lessons we want The Valley to be a practical & welcoming place to visit.
