Announcing New Endorser’s

This year, Professional’s Choice has expanded its classic line of English products to appeal to a broader audience with new specialty items like our Ballistic Brushing Boot, Open Front Boots in hard shell and leather, and a range of Splint Boots. To pair with our expanded line of products, we have added two new endorsers of our English product line.

James Atkinson was born in Yorkshire England and immigrated to Canada in 1990. He progressed through Canada’s young rider program with wonderful success and went on to ride internationally for Canada. In 2001, he competed at Rolex Kentucky, and received the Bank One Trophy for being the highest placed rider that owned his own horse. The following year, James and his horse Revy were chosen to represent Canada at the World Equestrian Games in Spain. James is now based in Southern California where he trains and produces upper level event horses. He has been a cross-country builder for nine years, is ‘R’ licensed, and has worked closely with almost all of the best course designers and officials. Currently, he is the organizer for Copper Meadows Horse Trials in Ramona, CA, and is currently competing at the intermediate level with Carolyn Hoffos’ German riding horse Gustav, while also training students up through preliminary level.

Taren Atkinson is a full-time instructor at Copper Meadows Equestrian Center with students at all levels. Taren has experienced a great deal of eventing success, competing on many horses through the CCI-one star level. Taren’s riding school is called Limerick Equestrian, and her students and graduates achieve success by practicing safe riding techniques, excellent stable management, and a commitment to enjoying horses and their sport.

Both Taren and James are a great addition to our group of Event riders and instructors who are enthusiastic about Professional’s Choice English products.
