Kira Statue is available for training to eventing, dressage and jumper students; providing the skills needed to excel in each discipline.
Kira and her family own and run Cloverfield Equestrian Center; they have successfully created an incredible training facility for every horse and rider.
She has taken advantage of every opportunity to gain hands on experience riding with some of the top professionals in the field while also obtaining a Bachelor’s Degree in Animal Science from Rutgers University.
Her multiple avenues of education have given her the ability to teach eventing, dressage and jumper students how to develop a great foundation and relationship with their equine partners.
Kira has started an equine breeding program focused on breeding top jumper pedigrees here in the U.S. With the program off to a successful start she has two top bred jumper foals on the ground that she will develop though the young jumper program.
Kira’s shift in focus to breeding young jumpers was a natural progression as she shifted her competitive focus from eventing to jumpers. The jumper ring has been an area that Kira has always participated in but now she is has decided to ride, teach, breed and develop jumpers full time.
Her career consists of riding, grooming and learning from Kristin Schmolze an international 4-star event rider that has successfully competed at events throughout England, Canada and the United States. She made the USEF Developing Rider List several times and was an alternate member of the US Eventing Team at the 2011 Pan American Games in Mexico.
Kira then continued to increase her knowledge of the sport with Holly Payne Caravella, 5* level eventer and FEI dressage rider. Holly is also a USEA Level 3 ICP certified instructor and a Founding member of the Event Rider’s Association of North America (ERA).
Kira is currently working with professional trainer Alicia Madretzke to focus more on the jumpers. Her education throughout all three disciplines enables her to help riders of all levels achieve their goals.
