Maria Ciarelli

Maria started riding at home when she was two and joined Showcase when she turned 10. Through the years Maria has ridden a mix of Saddle-Seat, Hunt and Western.

Her favourite thing about horses is that it gives her a sense of courage to survive whatever life throws her way, it’s that calm that she wants to pass along to those riding under her tutelage. Sharing her love of horses with young riders, Maria aims to help build the connection and partnership between rider and animal. (Source)
