The horse is all of these things for me. At the center of my life, it sets the pace and increases the intensity of each of my days. A professionally licensed show jumping rider since 2015, I live my passion every day between working with horses at home and competing. Precious and motivating moments at the same time. Horse riding is much more than a sport, it is an inspiration.

Since 2013, I have been training and competing my horses.
At the head of a competitive horse line, every weekend is a competition, every competition a sporting challenge. I do between 200 and 300 courses per year at the national and international level as well as the Grand National circuit since 2016. Measuring myself against competitors stimulates the best in me by mobilizing my maximum energy. The competition allows me to evaluate the path I still have to travel to get even closer to excellence. With respect for the great riders and equerries who are, for me, a source of admiration and inspiration, I train every day to improve myself.

I make sure to constantly progress through coaching and training courses with great riders. High-level show jumping requires a lot of work from my entire team; my partners support me by trusting me. I am also lucky to have a very nice workspace that allows me to provide the necessary well-being to my horses.

My horses' training includes specific training for jumping but also outdoor outings on varied terrain to develop their physical condition. I vary the sessions and the jumping exercises as much as possible.

I make sure to adapt to the needs of each of my horses in terms of their character, their energy and their biomechanics. I like to implement light and flexible riding. Every day, an ever stronger bond is woven with my horses in the promise of a common future.
