"Essie" began riding at age 7, at Ershad Riding Club, in Mashhad, Iran, where he was born and raised. The 6 acre club is owned and managed by his father and boards over 100 horses. Essie's Mom Connie was born and raised in Ohio. Essie began participating in State and National Competitions as a Show Jumper in 1996 when he was 11. He became the highest rated rider in Khorasan State Competition, and was also rated first place rider in Iran for 3 years. |
| He has also been training young riders and horses for many years. He spent the summer in Singapore in 2002 training riders and horses, and was successful in taking First Place in the Singapore International Show jumping Competition that year. A quote From Cathy Bibbs Cornell, Head Instructor at WEC: "He is an excellent rider - perhaps one of the best I've ever taught - and has a wonderful way with horses." The former Ershad Riding Club website (last updated in 2001) can be found at: http://home.morva.net/alex/ershad/index.htm Essie will be teaching riders of all levels and is available for special training packages to train you and your horse in Show Jumping.
