Promoting the love of our sport

Ever wondered what it's like to swap the saddle for the driver's seat of a carriage? 🚗🐴

In our latest issue, we take you In the Driver’s Seat with the incredible Mandy Moon — equine osteopath, mindfulness practitioner, and seasoned carriage driver.

From bouncing around on a space hopper as a horse-obsessed kid to competing with her team of ponies across NZ, Mandy shares her journey into the historic and exhilarating world of carriage driving.

✨ What is carriage driving?
✨ How do you train a horse for harness work?
✨ What does competition look like?
✨ And how can you get started?

Whether you're looking for a new challenge or simply fascinated by this beautiful, historical, and skillful sport — this is your sign to learn more.

Mandy’s passion is infectious, and her wisdom runs deep.
