Show Jumping
WHY SHOWJUMPING?
Riding horses has been my passion ever since I started lessons at five years old. Throughout the years, it became a part of me. This is where my dreams of being able to represent my country were born. My parents on the other hand became so scared of these huge dreams because they didn’t want the circumstances of the sport in Panama to let me down. But we never gave up. All of this for a chance to represent Panama in the the Olympic cycle, doing what I love.
