~Rising Talent Horsemanship~ Tameka Claiborne

Aiken, SC -

Age 23

I got my start with horses early. And by start, I mean “horse” was my second word. My mom had no choice but to get me involved with them after that. So, for the first few years of my life, vaulting in Germany was my formal introduction to horses. I rode on and off throughout my adolescent years in

SarahandBishop everything from hunter/jumpers to trail riding. And if I couldn't ride, I spent my time reading and watching great riders and trainers I aspired to be like (and still do!) Fast forward to college where I discovered eventing; I was hooked! After graduation, I spent some time as a working student before transitioning to an assistant trainer at a barn I love. I’m a big advocate of balanced training and equine autonomy in our work together. I’ve got three major goals that I can’t wait to enjoy achieving: To open my own eventing academy meant to support equestrians (especially equestrians of color) in their pursuits through scholarships and mentorship. To successfully compete at the upper levels of eventing. And lastly, to perform liberty routines with my horses at an awesome showcase. So stay tuned! The best is yet to come!
