What It's Really Like to Train with Roger Yves Bost

Amy Collinson is a 28-year-old show jumper from New Zealand who is studying under the tutelage of French Olympic gold medalist, Roger Yves Bost. While she hails from a family with no equestrian background, horses have always been a driving force in her life. After obtaining her Bachelor's degree in Management, she moved to join Kiwi rider Samantha Mcintosh in Belgium, beginning her European adventure. Amy then moved to Denmark as a working student for Bruce Goodin, and then became a working student for Miranda Harrington in the Netherlands. Now, she has joined "Bosty's" yard as a student and reflects on what she's learned so far.
