Originally from New Zealand, Megan manages all of Sorensen Stables' barn operations. Her expertise working with top performance horses worldwide has made her an invaluable asset when training the new "super-groomers" at the Stables. With an unparalleled work ethic and dedication to the top horse care available, a buyer can be confident that a horse leaving our stables has received the highest quality attention, knowing Megan is at the helm of our extended network of vets, farriers and groomers.
The Move to
The Netherlands
Sorensen Stables moved to the Netherlands from North America in 2016 and has since become uniquely positioned at the intersection between the broad network of breeders in Europe and the rich diversity of professional and Junior/Amateur riders in North America. With the majority of high performance equine talents sourced from Europe, Sorensen Stables is perfectly situated to access and hone some of the best hunter, jumper and equitation horses in the world, with a track record of repeated success with their horses at the World Equestrian Games, USHJA Hunter Derby Championship and other high-profile competitions where they continue to earn top results.
At the Center of our Sport
"Here in Europe, the volume and quality of horses, and the development path in terms of cost and accessibility, is at a much greater scale than in North America. In order to have access to those horses for our customers, to be able to see them long-term be much more confident in those horses and get the top level horses for our own competition, it was necessary to relocate to the centre of our sport."
