He assures riders that horses who are taught to jump using a gymnastic system soon become confident and efficient over fences.

He also provides a systematic sequence explaining which gymnastic to use when, depending on the horse's level of training and the rider's focus, whether it be cross country or show jumping. Exercises are given to help correct existing bad jumping habits in older horses such as refusals, run-outs, or improper striding. Whether you are just learning to jump or you are a seasoned expert, Wofford provides ample exercises for setting up your horse to succeed over fences.
