Our team
At the Haras des Joanins, breeding top-level sport horses is above all a matter of passion, rigor and good humor.
Each member of our team puts his or her know-how and experience at the service of success, with a common goal:
To breed, raise and prepare talented, well-balanced horses ready to shine on the competition circuit.
Proud of our high standards and our commitment, we work every day with respect for the horse and its well-being. It is this philosophy that is the strength of our breeding operation, and which has enabled the Haras des Joanins to establish itself as a benchmark in the field of sport horses.
