Claire Martinez went from a rough 2023 show season to fulfilling her lifelong dream by becoming the 2024 National Adult Equitation Champion with trainer Laura Beth Strong of Laurel Crown Farms at her side.
What made the difference?
Her mindset—with the help of coach Nancy Dye.
"I called you because I finished off a year that was the lowest point of my riding career EVER, and I had a wonderful horse to ride, a great trainer I had been with for 10 years, and a very supportive husband.
"I had worked so hard, but nothing was going to plan. I just felt like I kept getting close all season and just couldn't seal the deal. I was extremely frustrated.
"I knew it was my mental game and started asking around. Your name kept coming up everywhere, so I called you, and the rest is history! I ended up having the best year of showing ever!
"I had the best supportive team around me, but Nancy, you were the missing piece of the puzzle! I felt more confident and in control than I have ever felt in my life! In riding, my personal life, and my career!
"I have been riding and wanting to win the National Champion ever since I was five! Thank you, Nancy, I owe a lot of this to you!"
