Amy Tryon

Amy Tryon rode a borrowed pony in her first 3-Day Event at the age of 8, and in the ensuing 20+ years has never lost her goal of riding for the United States. She finished high school early in order to gain upper level experience beyond the pacific northwest. From age 16 to 21, Amy traveled the country with two horses, competing, training with world-class instructors, and supporting herself as a working student.

After completing college, Amy started her career as a professional firefighter which allowed her the flexibility to balance her business commitments with her equestrian goals. She retired from firefighting in the summer of 2006 to devote herself entirely to riding.

Amy is based out of Mapleleaf Eventing (at Upson Downs in Duvall, WA) a 20-stall barn she manages. She rides 4-5 horses most days and teaches many lessons. Amy also donates her time to local Pony Clubs, 4-H groups, and up-and-coming Young Riders - giving clinics in dressage, jumping, and horse management. She is one of the most accomplished event riders in the United States, and has competed extensively at the national and international levels. Her career accomplishments and winnings include many of the top US events such as Rolex, Southern Pines, The Foxhall Cup, Jersey Fresh, Poplar Place, and Fair Hill International. She has also competed in and taken home top ribbons from The World Equestrian Games, Pan Am Games and the Olympics.
