Let's go back to Wellington! This conversation was recorded during our stay in Wellington last January. Following in the footsteps of Beezie Madden, Kent Farrington and Katie Prudent, this is another iconic name in American equestrianism that cannot be ignored. With 5 Olympic medals from 6 participations, McLain Ward is one of the most successful riders on the American continent. This year, he celebrates his 50th birthday and completes his 35th season at the highest level of show jumping. Impressive.But what struck us most when we recorded this episode was his vision and philosophy. McLain thinks, analyses, studies and organises. Nothing is ever left to chance and each performance seems to be more a harvest than a result, the fruit of a well-defined process. Relying on a well-oiled system, he makes sure he maintains his position, season after season, deadline after deadline. As you will see from this episode, McLain Ward is a top-level athlete in every sense of the word.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

The willingness to rely on each other's instincts and abilities is crucial to success in avoiding fatal accidents. It takes "guts" for both rider and horse to trust each other implicitly, especially when faced with daunting obstacles or demanding routines. But how does your instinct work when a complication arises out of the blue? In this episode, take the opportunity to get in the saddle and ride with Latin America's top showjumper, Nicolás Pizarro Suarez, to learn about the importance of discipline, intuition and instinct in showjumping. We'll enter his stables and talk about gut feeling and how both rider and horse must show courage and daring when navigating challenging courses. We'll also hear about the horses' own personalities, the thrill of the showjumping arena and how friendship with an animal and a strong emotional bond between rider and horse can make the minds and hearts of both horse and rider tune up in a fraction of a second when problems arise in completing a course. Nicolás Pizarro is an Olympic showjumping rider highly regarded figure in the equestrian community, admired for his personal qualities as well as his expertise in training and mentoring. He is recognized as one of the world's top riders and has a proven track record in developing talented and dedicated riders into international champions.
