During our video shoot at Geoffrey Hesslink’s training facility in Wellington, Florida, we had the opportunity to sit down with Geoffrey and his longtime friend, student and business partner Bethany Lee, owner of My Equestrian Style. Geoffrey and Bethany talk about how they first partnered up, their personal equestrian style, new trends in the typically traditional hunter ring and how riders can stand out in under-saddle classes.
Geoffry Hesslink owns and operates Hesslink Williams farm in Wellington, Florida, with his partner Brendan Williams. He is one of the leading hunter riders in the country and is a top trainer for juniors and amateurs in hunters, jumpers and equitation. Some of his most recent accolades include being named 2023 Pennsylvania National Horse Show Leading Hunter Rider, winning the 2023 $100,000 WCHR Central Hunter Spectacular at Traverse City Spring and placing second at the 2023 USHJA International Hunter Derby Championship, both aboard Drumroll. And in 2022, he piloted Mon Tresor to the win in the prestigious $100,000 USHJA/WCHR Peter Wetherill Palm Beach Hunter Spectacular.
