Thank you to ESTRIBO LATAM for including me again in this group of talented and capable women.

HorseGrooms loves it when grooms get excited by their profession and inspired horsemanship! And we are thrilled that those exact emotions were felt by grooms in 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗮 after the 𝗙𝗘𝗜 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆’𝘀 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺𝘀’ 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 course!⁣ Many grooms from various different riding clubs across Colombia participated in a four-day course (held in four different locations) led by Valeria Ariza. They learned the “why” behind horsemanship, experienced the power of body language with horses and nailed down the details of presentation. It was a wonderful four days, and we are lucky to have had Carmen Franco on the ground to witness the transformative excitement this program brought to grooms in South America. ⁣ 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲!⁣

¡A HorseGrooms le encanta cuando los palafraneros se entusiasman con su profesión y se inspiran en la equitación! ¡Y estamos encantados de que los mozos de cuadra de 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗮 sintieran esas mismas emociones después del curso de capacitación de 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺𝘀 𝗱𝗲 𝗙𝗘𝗜 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆!⁣ Muchos palafraneros de varios clubes de equitación de Colombia participaron en un curso de cuatro días (realizado en cuatro lugares diferentes) dirigido por Valeria Ariza. Aprendieron el “por qué” detrás de la equitación, experimentaron el poder del lenguaje corporal con los caballos y perfeccionaron los detalles de la presentación. Fueron cuatro días maravillosos y tenemos la suerte de tener a Carmen Franco en el terreno para presenciar el entusiasmo transformador que este programa trajo a los mozos de cuadra en América del Sur. ⁣ ¡𝗤𝘂é 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮 𝗱𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝘃𝗮 𝗹𝗮 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗶ó𝗻!
