Riding History: Elyse has been riding since... well, forever! She grew up in England, in the south - near Dorset in fact. Her early childhood was spent living next door to a farm, with her neighbours' ponies grazing at the bottom of her garden. Her earliest memory of riding is being placed on the back of a scruffy Shetland pony on one of her birthday parties.
She's been hooked since the beginning and took lessons three times a week at a little riding stables near their cottage. In her holidays back to Sicily, her mother's home, she went on long riding treks through the countryside.
Once they moved to Canada when she was nine she began to ride competitively. She was bought her first pony, Song of Summer, a light chestnut Welsh and they were a brilliant pair. She soon moved on to bigger and better things, and that's when her parents decided she should apply to Hollow Aspen.

Example Post:Bethanie gently loosened Flight's girth and flicked the end over the saddle. Lifting the saddle off her horse's back she carried it over to the door and balanced it there.
"Feel betterSTAFF POSITIONS" she asked the pretty bay mare in a low voice, giving her a scratch on her withers. Flight sighed and blinked her soft, melted-chocolate eyes at Beth, who smiled back at her.
She took off Flight's bridle, then left the stall and bolted the door, leaving the horse snuffling at her hay net. Carrying her gorgeous havanna tack to the tack room, Beth noticed a new horse in stall 13. A beautiful storm-grey Arab. Flicking her long hair out of her eyes, she hurried into the tack room, curiosity burning her up. Just as she was walking back up the aisle to give Flight a mint, she bumped into a boy who was dressed in sombre colors.
"Watch where you're going, loser!" the strange newcomer hissed at Bethanie.
"Uh... sorry. I guess I wasn't paying attention!" Bethanie tried to stay calm, but she felt a blush spreading across her face.
"Are you newSTAFF POSITIONSI don't think I've seen you before. Is that new horse yoursSTAFF POSITIONS" She fiddled with the zipper on her forest-green gilet, waiting for the boy to reply.
Too many questions, she thought, embarrassed at her boldness.
