I am a 15 year old show jumper from New Zealand, my most success has come from a horse that I previously spent the majority of the time picking myself up of the ground. This experience would help me in developing the skill and ability I need as a rider to be able to reach the goals I wish to be able to achieve in the future. I know how much this opportunity would help me to reach These goals and how much my riding would benefit from this. I have a habit of self doubted myself and looking back on rounds and only taking the negatives not the positives. I hope that to be able to attend the academy would give me a new insight on riding.
