Meet your SENIOR & HEAD COACH - Sarah Revis
Sarah Revis of Revis Equine is Silverdale Pony Club's long standing Head Coach. She works tirelessly behind the scenes to co-ordinate coaches, rallies and team events. Pony Club just wouldn't be the same without her dedication.
Her contribution extends well beyond Silverdale, as she is also an active supporter and sponsor of equestrian events across the wider community.
Through Revis Equine, Sarah runs events, camps, workshops, and private coaching, providing opportunities for riders of all ages and stages.
Alongside her coaching commitments, Sarah continues to compete with her own horses across multiple disciplines. This season she is producing her young horse, Tyson, the newest member of the Revis Equine team, who recently returned home with a collection of ribbons from the National Thoroughbred Show in Taupo.
Sarah loves working with riders of all ages, and gains enormous satisfaction from seeing riders enjoying their ponies, having fun and working hard to achieve their goals. Horses are a full time job for Sarah, so there is little time for anything else. But we are sure she wouldn’t have it any other way!
