UAE Western Riding & Cowboy Culture Community

About this event

Good evening, everyone, and thank you for joining us. My name is Dr. Yaser Alkatheeri. I’m bringing together people in the UAE who are interested in Western riding and cowboy culture. I started with a simple question: [are there people here who share an interest in ](MILFA.AE)[Quarter Horses and Western riding](MILFA.AE)[, and would like to help this community grow?](MILFA.AE) Today is a chance for us to meet, share our experience, and learn who is already involved in the UAE—riders, horse owners, trainers and enthusiasts. From there, we can explore how to build an organised community and contact the American Quarter Horse Association, or AQHA, to learn about its membership and affiliate requirements. You don’t need to be an experienced rider to take part. I’d like to hear what interests you, what experience you can share, and who else you think should be part of this community. I hope this is the start of a strong network, and that we can shape the next steps together.
