Lise’s passion for horses began at a young age, when she used to beg her Grandmother for pony rides at the local craft markets, and has not dimmed since.
Lise holds a Pony Club AH Certificate (2014) as well as her SANEF Module 3 Horse Mastership Certificate (2009). Lise is also a Pony Club Laureate (2014), which is the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a Pony Club member.
Lise was an active member of the Helderberg Branch of the South African Pony Club from 2000 – 2015; She served 2 terms as District Commissioner of her branch and holds 27 merit badges, including The Blue Cross Equine Welfare merit badge, as well as having received various trophies at Interbranch events, including the Spirit Trophy.
As well as having competed for many years, Lise also regularly volunteered at many horse shows of various disciplines. She has also spent some time volunteering with the Cart Horse Protection Association and hopes to be able to work with them more in the future.
