We want to welcome home Nicole McMillion and her horse Freddy for the summer! ☀️🐴

It’s great for our students to have Nicole as an example, as she grew up riding at Elvenstar Orange County. She recently won USET finals and contributed to Texas A&M’s first SEC Equestrian Championship title.

Good luck to Nicole and Freddy in Temecula this week! 👏

Meet LAHJA Member Shelby Steinberg! 💫

Shelby has been a member of LAHJA for about two years. She loves the LAHJA medal finals and all the classes leading up to them. She explains she "loves that the organization is so positive and supportive.

Recently, Shelby rode to victory in the LAHJA Silver Medal Final at Gold Coast Labor Day. She says, "To win the LAHJA Silver Medal Final was amazing! It felt like all of my hard work with Freedom has paid off." Shelby also earned the reserve championship in the LAHJA Gold Medal Final at Gold Coast October and shares that "receiving reserve champion in the LAHJA Gold Medal Final was very rewarding. Freedom is truly special and I love him so much. I am also so grateful for my trainers for all they’ve done for me."
