Jumping classes are commonly seen at [[horse show]]s throughout the world, including the [[Equestrian at the Summer Olympics|Olympics]]. Sometimes shows are limited exclusively to jumpers. Sometimes jumper classes are offered in conjunction with other English-style events. Sometimes, show jumping is but one division of a very large, all-breed competition that includes a very wide variety of disciplines. Jumping classes may be governed by various national horse show sanctioning organizations, such as the [[United States Equestrian Federation]] or the [[British Showjumping Association]]. International competitions are governed by the rules of the [[International Federation for Equestrian Sports]].
