| Kate Bar on Andante de Miami |
- She was the #2 dressage rider in all of South America
- She is a vet.
- She is the 1st woman inspector for the ABCCMM (Brasilian Marchador Association)
- She runs an educational program for the ABCCMM
- She trains and consults with many of the top Marchador farms in Brasil
So, we were in great hands. Kate was not comfortable speaking in English and none of us knew Portuguese, so USMMA member Aline Oliveira Greene translated the whole time for us and did an excellent job. Horse TV was there filming and taking photos. Hopefully, there will be a video to follow.
