Happy New Years all! The Equestrian Community this year so far, we’ve had a few events here in NSW, one being the Hawkesbury Dressage Carnival that was held at Clarendon Showgrounds over the 16 & 17th of Jan. It was a very well run event, the organisers followed the COVID-19 safety rules and so did […]
Please tell the readers where you grew up and how’d you get into horses? I don’t remember a time in my life where I haven’t been completely obsessed with horses. I started out just being a horse crazy kid and read as many books as I could, including all of the ones that explain the […]
Ffiona of Ffire Photography and I were lucky enough to meet Liz Milinkovic at Sydney Equine Assisted Learning last week. We were able to officially all meet in person, meet the horse practitioners, and all have a fun and natural flowing chat and photo shoot. For those of you unfamiliar with the work that Sydney […]
I have known Denise since the early days of living in the Hawkesbury, so it is an absolute pleasure to have her answer Amylie’s questions about her horse story so far… Can you please tell the viewers about yourself and your horsey background? I grew up in western Qld (St George) on a cattle and […]
It is currently show season, and there are many of us training at our peaks to make the best out of the return of horse events. Some of us are not able to have private lessons outside of our respective club training days and clinics that we attend. Some of us are quite limited on […]

A few months back I sold my fur child, my lovely chestnut pony, and some of you may be thinking, omg you did that in the middle of Covid… yes I did, and I actually had an amazing response to finding her a wonderful home. She’s now very happy with her new family enjoying the […]
Last week was Helmet Safety Awareness Week, so I thought it was important to address the importance of wearing a helmet when we are around our horses; particularly when we are riding. As an equestrian that has had a few spills and mild concussions as a result over the years, and also witnessed these happening […]
R U OK? Day is coming up this Thursday on September 10th, and it has made me remember how terrible us Equestrians can be at giving ourselves the love and care that we need to be our best selves. Most the time we are too busy caring for our horses, working our day jobs and […]
I’ve only known Sharon a short time and one thing that’s obvious is that she’s a quiet achiever. She has a caring heart and determination to last miles. Sharon is always finding ways to help fellow equestrians. She’s overcome many obstacles and is now a Para-athlete as well as a Paralympian. Sharon can you tell […]
