Yesterday our riders Anya Chulani and Paige Roxas-Chua took a trip to to compete in the third leg of the National Championship Series.

Kaikoura and Beck were on their best behavior, earning 1st and 2nd place in the Newcomers 0.60m category. The girls each had one rail down in the 0.80m, but for their first show out of town, they still had good results and valuable experience.

For .virata, it was also a special day—returning to this venue for the first time as a coach. The last memorable competition here was when she was competing in high school.

Thank you to the organizers and everyone who made the event possible. On to the next one, the finale for the MPC season, the Annual Horse Show on March 28-29! 🏆🐎🏅

Our girl Sierra turns two today! 🎂🐴

Coach ’s firstborn has already made part of her world. One of the very first words she learned to say was “horse,” and ever since, weekends often meant asking to go to the stables. The first time Xavi put her on a horse, the hardest part wasn’t getting her on—it was taking her off. She cried when the ride ended.

Looks like we might already have a future rider… and maybe even a future instructor in the making.💫👧🏻🍼

Last January, we celebrated the wedding of our dear longtime friend — who started riding with as a little girl and truly grew up in the club with us.🤍

Salta, the very horse she once competed with, is now generously shared with the farm so our beginners can learn and feel safe in the saddle. We’re so grateful to Lillian for allowing us to use Salta in our lessons — a full circle moment that means so much to the growth our community.

From childhood riding days to wedding vows, it was such a special reunion of riders shaped under Mia’s guidance. 🐴✨

A special kind of bonding — one that only horses can create 🤍

Mother and daughter tandem and shared a beautiful trail ride in Barcelona last year, making the most of Ianna’s university break with time in the saddle together. Between studies and busy schedules, they chose to reconnect the best way they know how — on horseback, exploring new landscapes side by side.

While in Spain, they also had the chance to meet , the talented artist behind the masterpiece created for the 30th anniversary poster of the — a meaningful encounter that made the trip even more memorable.

Horses truly take us places — not just around the world, but closer to the people we love. 🐎✨

Long-time best friends, cherished clients, and successful businesswomen, and —whose love for horses has spanned decades in the saddle.
Seasoned riders who’ve grown alongside each other both in business and in life took their shared passion all the way to a breathtaking trail ride through Cappadocia. A beautiful reminder that dedication, friendship, and horsemanship truly have no borders. 🤍🐎🇹🇷

Our student Angelina Elizalde and coincidentally a horse named Jolie met at a family trip to Como, Italy last summer. She and her dad discovered a beautiful riding center called that stables over 100 horses. They offer western riding, camps, and trail rides immersed in nature. A special full-circle moment too—her dad, who used to ride when he was younger, couldn’t resist hopping on and enjoying a relaxed canter along the trails. Proof that horses have a way of bringing families (and old passions) back together. 🇮🇹✈️🍃

Strong rides, proud moments, and valuable experience gained 💪🐎

Our riders represented well today in the National Championship Series. Lion King, presented by .virata, impressed in his very first show on Philippine soil, finishing 5th out of 10 in the 0.50–0.60m class. & Beck also went all clear in the 0.50–0.60m, marking Paige’s first outdoor show of the season.

In the 0.70–0.80m, .peabody had one unlucky rail but delivered a solid first outdoor performance with her new partner Drumiller Daytona. placed 3rd in the same class during her first outdoor show with her new horse Kaikoura 🥉👏

In the 0.90m–1.00m, Selina Bruehl rode Elixir really well—clearing all the obstacles until an unfortunate run-out at the last fence. A pity, but a ride to be proud of.

Onwards and upwards ✨🐎

Australian coach Amanda Madigan is fine-tuning our riders as they gear up for this weekend’s horse show—the first leg of a three-part National Championships series, now held in tandem with the Junior World Competition. In the past, these events were hosted across different locations such as , and .inc, giving riders the added experience of traveling out of town and competing with their horses. 🚚🏆🚛
