How Horseback Riding and CORESHORTS™ Are Impacting the Life of a Young Equestrian

When Sammie Emerson was six years old, she went on her first horseback ride. Now she is a 13-year-old passionate young equestrian who has used this sport to break out of her shell.

“It’s nice to just get on your horse and be in a whole new environment mentally, relax, feel the rhythm and just enjoy yourself,” says Sammie.

Her mother, Sarina Fazan is excited to see her daughter do something that she loves.

“Horseback riding has impacted Sammie’s life in such a positive way. She is an only child and more on the quiet side, so we decided to have her start horseback riding,” says Sarina.

She continues, “She completely embraced the sport and we have noticed how much it has built her confidence.” 

Sarina could not be happier about how passionate Sammie is about taking part in this sport.  

“She loves taking care of the horse, his name is Pretzel. Horseback riding has been the best thing for her, and it also gives her a great focus,” she says.  

Now Sammie, an ambassador of  CORESHORTS™, is even more equipped than ever before with a technology that provides enhanced core support, reduced risk of injury, and optimal performance.

“I really enjoy wearing them. It feels good to be able to sit up and have that core strength,” says Sammie.

CORESHORTS™ is the best of both worlds, protecting Sammie and her horse with a support system that makes riding fully functional.

“It is a major part of riding because you need to be sat up or else it could be too much weight on the horse and really hurt them,” says Sammie. 

As a mother, Sarina feels at ease knowing that Sammie is wearing fully functional technology dedicated to preventing injury. 

“CORESHORTS™ has been great for Sammie because it helps build her core. Core strength is so important when you’re riding a horse, so the shorts give her that support and the core strength that she needs,” says Sarina. 

She continues, “Your child is your most precious commodity and you want them to have the safest equipment possible, so why wouldn’t I put her in CORESHORTS™!” 

The minds behind CORESHORTS™ are sports experts who took the time to create technology that is proven to enhance one’s movement.

“CORESHORTS™ is not just a compression short, it gives all athletes of any sport the confidence they need to perform at their best. There is a medically graded patent behind the shorts, and I feel comforted knowing that, especially when it’s your child,” says Sarina.  

Sarina is elated to see her child partake in a sport she loves, along with the support she needs. 

“I love watching her ride, I see the confidence coming out of her, and then I’m confident because as a mother I know that I am protecting her in the best way possible by equipping her with the clothes and garments she needs.”
