Jean Luc has competed at national and international levels in dressage, steeplechase, stadium jumping and three-day events; he has won extensively in all specialties, collecting several gold, silver and bronze medals. Notably, Jean Luc won the individual and team gold medal at the Military World Championships in Fontainebleau in 1975. In 1971, he won silver at the World Championship at Punchestown. The following year, he was member of the winning team at Boekelo.

However, Jean Luc feels that his greatest success lies in his ability to intuit the physical and mental condition of each horse the day after their victories. Margit Otto Crepin, the French and Olympic champion, is one of Jean Luc’s most prominent dressage students. In 1972 and 1976, respectively, he worked closely with Michel Cochenet to prepare two Olympic teams for the national three-day event.
