OUR MISSION IS TO DEVELOP QUALITY HORSES AND RIDERS THROUGH:
PATIENCE, DISCIPLINE + TEAMWORK
Hi there! Welcome to MM Equestrian.
Our philosophy is grounded in the fundamentals of the hunter/jumper sport and we take time to nurture and develop each horse and rider combination through a customized plan. We pride ourselves on quality over quantity, hard work, lots of practice and plenty of fun along the way!
At MM Equestrian, our horses always come first. We have a phenomenal team working alongside us to help ensure that our horses are happy, healthy and high-performing. From our masterful farrier, to our top-notch vet, to our chiropractor, our horses receive the best care as part of our holistic wellness program.
About Mark Mckone
Head trainer, Mark McKone, started riding at age 9 and was a “barn rat” in the truest sense. After graduating from the University of Findlay with a degree in Equine Studies, Mark spent time working with Kim & Andy Barone of Raven Ridge Farm and Kyle & Kathy Dewar of Chestnut Hill Farm. In October, 2014 Mark started his own business and established MM Equestrian. Mark spent many successful years in the midwest before an opportunity came for him to move out east and purchase his own farm in Milford, NJ.
Mark excels at bringing along young horses, helping riders reach their goals, and is passionate about proper development and progression. Mark's program is rooted in solid flatwork as the foundation for success over fences. He truly has a passion for teaching and is constantly seeking opportunities to further his own education.
“I had the good fortune of moving to MM Equestrian in the spring of 2015. From the very first ride, Mark helped me build a foundation of flexibility and balance. Under his guidance, my horse and I have come to be a true team. After decades of riding and dozens of trainers, Mark taught ME how to ride MY horse” - Jody Scudder
