My Horse Riding Experiences

I have started riding horses in Brazil: "Hipica Santa Fé" in 1987.
Then I change to the "Clube Hípico de Santo Amaro" where I started using the school horses.
A few months later, my dad gave me the most wonderful gift I could ever ask: a horse, and what a horse. Lobinho do Anjo was a 3/4 Arabe and 1/4 Trakhener. It was the cutest horse which the one I got into some competitions and got good results.
I rode there for about 3 years.

Then we moved to Lyon, France and I rode there for an year at the "Escadron de Saumur". I couldn't keep riding because of my studies. At french school, we study the whole day, starting at 8.00am until 6.00pm, then...homework.
Since then, I've stop to ride horses but who knows someday I'll start again.

Some of the Championships' results I've got in Brazil:

• 5th & 6th place at the BH Horse Show Championship - may 1990 - Lobinho do Anjo.
