Hello, my name is Thibault Philippaerts, I live in Oudsbergen, Belgium and I'm fortunate to have been born into a family with a deep love for horses. My father Ludo, has enjoyed an incredible career as a Grand Prix winner and championships team member for Belgium, even participating in four Olympic Games. My two older brothers, Olivier and Nicola, have also achieved great success at the highest level of the sport for several years now.
It's been my lifelong dream to follow in their footsteps and become a top-level rider and horseman. With horses at the center of my world, I've spent countless hours improving my skills and knowledge. In the coming years, I hope to become even more involved in our family business and to compete at the highest level of the sport with some truly amazing horses.
I'm thrilled to be part of the Young Rider Academy and am confident that their support will be instrumental in helping me achieve my goals and realize my dreams.
