Our Instructors

 

Heritage is pleased to have Mark DeBlasio manage our Hunter/Jumper program. Mark has over 25 year of experience working with equestrians of all levels.   Mark's love for horses started as a kid in Pony Club and grew into a career when he managed his first barn at 19.  He has worked and shown with some of the great equestrians like Leslie Howard and Fran & Joe D.

 

Mark enjoys helping his student progress and has seen great success at local and regional horse shows.
