The Heggelunds have been training horses for a combined 40-plus years. “We made the move to California in 2006, mostly because the weather is always nice,” Van Heggelund explains. “Clarissa and I were sick of shoveling snow!” He took over Heggelund Training from his well-known equestrian father Al Heggelund in 1978.

Clarissa joined the team in 2001. Together they have developed a program that works for both horse and rider.

“Our goal is to develop horses that want to work: horses that will accept the different challenges we ask of them and trust our decisions,” Heggelund explains. “You have invested a lot in your horse. We offer practical, proven training development for your horse and are confident that you will be satisfied with the results. We developed this program because we knew there was a better way. The horse, in his own world, is very successful. It’s our job to introduce this magnificent animal into our world. We stress trust, personal space and understanding. We assess each horse daily to determine how its training should be modified.

Our motto is, ‘Don’t make the horse fit the program, make the program fit the horse.’ We are proud of the success achieved through our personalized care and training program.
