Welcome to Willow Ridge: a place where the care and comfort of the horse is first and foremost. Where you'll find a community of welcoming adult riders who have gone beyond teammates to dear friends.  

Where riders of any breed of horse, discipline, or ability are welcome and encouraged. Where you can study and immerse in the principles of classical dressage, biomechanics, and horsemanship; where we work first for the preservation, enhancement, and improved soundness of the equine mind and body, and where care is customized to the individual. 

We strive for a holistic approach to development; one that balances training with nutrition, the highest standards in daily care, correctly fitting tack, and mental and emotional health.  Where competition is encouraged but never demanded, and that success in the show ring is trumped only by the successful cultivation of a deeper connection with our equine partners.  

Established in 2012, Willow Ridge is located on 23 picturesque acres near Hudsonville, MI. Here you will find a truly private retreat – close to town but worlds away.    

Willow Ridge is owned and operated by Brian & USDF Bronze Medalist Kimberly Dunlap.

We offer lessons, virtual (video) lessons, clinics, showing, and horse training from green/young horse starting through Prix St. George. Showing is optional and offered at both the local and national level. We currently have a group of riders showing from Intro to 3rd Level (and some Western Dressage riders, too!) If you love to learn and enjoy a positive, encouraging all-adult environment, this is the place for you!
