2023 Coaches Week Featured Coach Silvana Huber of Penticton, BC!
Silvana is an EC Certified and Licensed Coach who has obtained English Competition Coach and Western Instructor certifications. She is actively pursuing Learning Facilitator status and is trained to administer the English and Weste
rn Rider levels. We asked her a few fun questions to get to know her a little better!
What is one item you can’t go to the barn without? Well, I generally try and bring Kaia, my dog with me!
What inspired you to start coaching?
Pony Club! The education I received was amazing through the local pony club and it pushed me to get my A level in pony club.
What’s your coaching philosophy?
I really put emphasis on safety and awareness. Through pony club, I have a bit more of a classical approach with safety in mind.
