If you saw her now, fearlessly flying over 1.40  - 1.45m  courses with her string of horses at the top shows, while training under international show jumper, David Blake of Wellington and Tryon, you would never believe how it all started after junior rider, Eva Paliouras, transitioned from riding hunters to jumpers.

Her mom contacted me for mental skills coaching based upon a referral by FEI jumping judge, Elena Couttenye. 


"Another important member of Eva's team is mental skills coach, Nancy Dye. Eva began coaching with Nancy in 2023 and sees a huge difference in her mental game.

"I used to get totally upset about even the smallest of mistakes and just couldn't move past them, in addition to having a lot of anxiety before showing. While I'm still a bit of a perfectionist, I've learned to see the benefits of that, which means I'm always striving to be better, and I can be happy with my riding in the present moment.

"Nancy Dye has totally changed my mindset and taught me how to be mentally strong." Sidelines Magazine, June 2025

"One of my favorite aspects about coaching with Nancy is that she always made me realize something I didn't even think was preventing me from being my best self. I'm more successful and definitely more coachable. (My trainer can tell you that!) I've been so consistent throughout the shows, almost always ribboning. My confidence is now a 15 out of a 10!" 

Eva is currently short listed to compete for Peru at the Bolivarian Games, which are the start of the Olympic qualifying cycle for South America, this November. A Peruvian citizen, Eva represents Peru for FEI events.

Ready for Olympic quality mental skills, and a LASTING transformation, for riding and for life?
