It has been a busy and wonderful summer, and this past weekend was the cherry on top! 💕

DeLuca Equine hosted our first-ever schooling show for weekly clients, and the day was nothing short of magic! ✨ Every horse and rider pair put their beautiful connection on full display, and the arena was filled with friendship, encouragement and joy!

The grand finale to our show schedule was two of the most moving dressage tests we’d ever witnessed. Both Lucy and Lyn beautifully completed their Dressage Foundation Century Club rides, where the age of the horse and rider combined must equal 100 years or more. It is a huge honor and aspirational achievement to join the Century Club! 🎉

Lucy rode sweet Novia, who spent the majority of her life as a polo pony until coming to the farm in 2023 as a lesson horse. Novia has poured an incalculable amount of confidence, knowledge, and care into her riders over the years, and now at the age of 30, she gets to receive that love and attention back ten fold from her mom Lucy.

Lyn rode the unicorn that is Sonora. We have owned Sonora since she was 4 months old and she was the first horse I ever started from the very beginning. That horse has taken me places I could only dream of, has allowed me to work with horsemen that I idolized, and has made more of my personal dreams come true than I can ever put into words. To see her do the same for Lyn this weekend was profoundly emotional.

It was a day that will forever be etched in our minds and on our hearts!! Thank God for horses and for all the people that love them!! 🦄

My heart is SO FULL after such a wonderful clinic day!! Seeing the relationships that can occur between horse and human never ceases to amaze me. I had a great time working with new partnerships and loved the energy that the 4H kids brought to the day! To my longtime clients that participated - the connections that you have carefully, consciously, and consistently nurtured with your horses were on full display. Your horsemanship was a thing to behold and to say that I am proud of you and your unicorns would be an understatement. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of the journey! 🙏🏻💕

What a wonderful day! 🎉 First clinic of the year for me, and first time bringing my boy Argo along as a demo horse! I will admit that I brought Waylon too just in case we needed a backup plan 🤣 but Argo did a great job! So thankful to have the best boys, and truly the best parents in the world, who are always there to help me. I couldn’t do any of this without them! 💕🙏🏻

What a messy weather day today! ☃️ I’m so grateful that I was able to enjoy the snow with my boys before all this rain and ice, and I’m equally grateful to have my indoor arena attached to my barn for days like today when turnout is impossible.

When I put Waylon and Argo out initially, it went as I would have expected. Lots of running, jumping, bucking, and cavorting. It is always one of my favorite things to watch them play with each other, and it is often quite humbling (and slightly frightening! 🤣) to see what incredible acts of athleticism their bodies are capable of!

But then something really interesting happened. Once they settled down and the energy calmed, they just stood together and started listening to the rain and the occasional ice falling from the trees outside. And they stayed in that state of peaceful attention for over 5 minutes. Interested but not fixated, aware but not worried, curious but not tense. It was like watching a masterclass in stillness and presence. It is especially impressive to see Argo in that state, as I often joke that he has an attention disorder and that chronologically he may be 5, but mentally he’s about half that age. But here he was, mind and body as calm and consistent as I could ever want.

In all honesty, I missed the first half of this peaceful scene as my nose was buried in my phone, taking advantage of the down time to catch up on emails and messages. But the prolonged silence and stillness finally jolted me out of my internal overstimulation, and as I looked up and put away my phone, I was brought to that place of peaceful presence with them. And it was beautiful.

I’ve noticed more and more that I have a hard time being still for prolonged periods of time, and technology is all too available to fill up any moment of empty space. But in coming back to the reality right in front of me, two perfectly present beings harmoniously interacting with their own perceptions of reality, it really gave me a deep perspective on how I want to operate in the world, and in my own mind.

I want to be peaceful, to be present, to be productive and yet restful, equally appreciative of action and of stillness. I want to notice the little sounds and sights around me, and really be a part of the life that’s happening in front of me, not on some screen or alternate virtual reality. So as the new year comes, that will definitely be one of my resolutions - to be more peacefully present. And how lucky for me, that I have two of the best teachers right in front of me ♥️
