Bragging on our AMAZING show team today!
We had a big day full of accomplished goals, beautiful rides, and strong patterns—but more than that, we had a group of riders who supported each other every step of the way. As always, they worked together, kept positive attitudes, and showed so much kindness to one another.
I’m incredibly proud of the growth we’re seeing in this team. They are really applying what they’ve learned in lessons and it’s showing. One of my favorite moments today was hearing another rider ask our crew how they got their horses so good at showmanship. The same class they used to dread and hope I’d let them skip has now become one of their best. They’re seeing the payoff from all that hard work.
Thank you so much to the Spartanburg Horseman's Association for hosting such a lovely and well-run show. And a huge thank you to our amazing show parents for all the hard work behind the scenes—making sure these riders and horses had everything they needed to succeed today. We couldn’t do it without you.
Side note from me as a coach—while I’m so proud of everyone’s effort, I was a little disappointed we didn’t stick it out in show clothes today. Proper show attire is one of my pet peeves, and just like the showmanship class, I hope they’ll come to see how important the details are as they continue to grow and shine. ❤️
I love all of you and I am so proud of you and the equestrians you are becoming!
