Jazz Napravnik Thoroughbreds
**Jazz Napravnik Thoroughbreds is based at Lucas Farms, situated in Chestertown, Maryland. This location provides a serene and spacious setting for horse training with access to beautiful landscapes and ample training grounds.
**Training and Care:** At Lucas Farms, Jazz has established a facility tailored for the preparation of horses across various equestrian disciplines. The farm includes well-equipped barns, arenas for dressage and jumping, and extensive trails for conditioning. The focus here is on creating a nurturing environment where horses can thrive physically and mentally.
**Seasonal Move to Aiken, SC:** For the winter season, Jazz moves her horses to Aiken, South Carolina, leveraging the area's ideal conditions for horse training. Aiken’s soft, sandy soil and mild winters provide an excellent setting for both conditioning and recuperation, ensuring the horses are in top shape for the competitive season.
**Philosophies:**
**Holistic Horse Care:** Jazz's approach to horse management is all-encompassing, focusing on the horse's complete well-being. She combines traditional training methods with modern insights to optimize performance while preserving the horse's health.
**Education and Development:** She is committed to the education of both horse and rider, particularly in transforming Thoroughbreds into versatile sport horses. Jazz champions the cause of off-the-track Thoroughbreds (OTTB), providing them with second careers in disciplines like eventing, dressage, fox hunting and show jumping.
**Community Engagement:** Jazz values community and often competes and coaches at local equestrian events, fostering a supportive network around her operations.
