Amelia Maree - Dressage
Amelia Maree’s dad convinced her to trade her ballet shoes for a pony 5 years ago and she hasn’t looked back. It didn’t take long for her to realise that dressage was well and truly her passion. A humble, yet hard worker, 13 year old Amelia rarely focusses on the many accolades she has already achieved, including an FEI CDI World Youth Ranking in the Childrens of 14th earlier this year. Instead she prefers to focus on the ‘work’ and see her partnerships with her horses as a constant work in progress. With a new horse, Courtlands Cognac, recently joining her family, and an exciting young horse bred by her coach David Shoobridge currently at the breakers, Amelia is excited for the challenge in this next chapter of her riding journey.

Millicent Fletcher - Dressage
Once an elite level gymnast, I made the life changing decision five years ago to leave behind a sport I had dedicated my childhood to in order to pursue a new passion, dressage. Now, as a dedicated dressage enthusiast competing at the CDI-J level with my horse Amsterdam, I bring the same discipline, focus, and ambition that once fuelled my gymnastics career. With big goals and an incredibly talented horse, I’m incredibly excited to see where this chapter of my riding career takes me.
Toni Webb - PonyDressage
I was born and raised in NZ and moved to Australia in my early 20s. I have been involved in the horse community since I was a little girl, growing up in pc in NZ and eventing being my first passion. I moved into dressage as I got older and believe me I still deep down want to event but I think my days are over, I now ride dressage ponies and compete to fei level with a wide variety of ponies. I am a mum of 3 beautiful young adults and my wonderful husband Anton who supports my crazy adventures in the horse world.
