No less than 24 children followed one another in front of the jury and their relatives to present their horse riding dressage test. Even though the podium only contained three places, they all came away winners!
Three categories appeared on the program of this unique event on the island of Saint-Martin, the Bronze category which brings together beginner riders, the Bronze + category where they are a little more advanced in the practice of riding and finally the Silver category. for experienced riders. 10 children presented themselves in the beginners category, 7 in the intermediate and 7 others in the last category. Each child gave a remarkable performance considering that some of them have only been riding for two months.
The purpose of a dressage test is to assess the rider's ability to handle his horse, whether in direction or speed, such as making him perform figures such as a circle or a diagonal, or pass from not at the trot, until the gallop for the more experienced. The competition ended with the essential presentation of medals and trophies.
On the podium, Camille, Florence, Ronin, Aliyah, Charlie, Meliah, Gia, Luna and Izabella. But the other competitors have nothing to regret from their performance, as Pierre de Coubertin said, the main thing is to participate… and above all to have fun! For those who would like to indulge in horseback riding, summer camps at Seaside Nature Park begin next week. _VX
