🏆 TERROUGES DRESSAGE SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP 🏆

What an incredibly successful outing at the Terrouges Dressage Series Championship!

Beautiful tests, encouraging words from the judges, and happy horses and riders made for a truly rewarding show. We are incredibly proud of our riders and their horses and the progress they continue to make in the arena! ✨

🌟 Tiané & Dance of Valor
🥉 3rd Place – Junior Preliminary Test 3
🥉 3rd Place – Junior Preliminary Test 4

A fantastic achievement, especially considering this was their first-ever dressage show together! We are extremely impressed with their results and look forward to seeing this partnership continue to grow.

🌟 Coach Lelandi Van Hoek & Rooigras Auntie
🥈 2nd Place – Adult Preliminary Test 3
🥉 3rd Place – Adult Preliminary Test 4

An especially rewarding show for Juniper, who is owned by Eilidh and Sonia Hooykaas. With Coach Lelandi having had only a handful of rides on this lovely mare before the competition, these results made the outing all the more special!

Congratulations to both combinations on a wonderful show! We are so proud of you and look forward to many more successful outings together. 🐴

Here’s to happy horses, confident riders and continuous progress! ✨

Thank you Terrouges Equestre for the wonderful show🤩

This year, our yard manager Lucia started riding properly for the first time, and she has worked incredibly hard ever since. She rides and works with the horses every single day, and we have been so proud of the progress she has made.

So, we decided to surprise her with her very first show!🤩

She got to ride our lovely schoolmaster, who she gets such a wonderful ride out of, and we couldn’t have been prouder of the two of them.

Lucia went into the ring and came out with a clear round!✨

What a special milestone and such a wonderful reward for all the hard work she has put in this year. We are so excited to see where this journey takes her! 🐴
