Who

Professional equestrian trainer for over 30 years.

Sebastian Guglielmino came to the United States from Argentina in the year 2000. He trained with top international trainers while in Argentina, and his success at competition and training horses and riders has continued in United States. His lifelong passion for competition and for training horses and riders began while watching his own father ride in endurance competition. His father, Roberto Guglielmino represented Argentina in the world championship in Dubai in 1998, and it was his father’s successful competition and artful teaching that fueled Sebastian’s own passion for competition and show jumping.

Through his years of riding, Sebastian has trained with top Olympic and Grand Prix riders, such as Frank Chapot and currently Anne Kursinski. His years of riding and training experience and his success in the show jumping world is the foundation for his skill in teaching other disciplines, including equitation and hunter riders.
