Summer is in full swing, and there’s no slowing down for Jonathon Millar and Kevin Babington.
Kevin Babington and Mark Parker, one of Kevin's Amazing Aids providing care, at the World Equestrian CenterThe Kevin Babington Foundation recently caught up with both of these incredible horsemen to see what they’ve been up to — and let’s just say, they’re making every moment count.
For Jonathon, being back in the show ring has been nothing short of rejuvenating. He’s been riding and competing full-time, feeling strong and confident in the 1.25m classes.
“Getting back into the ring has brought back so much joy,” he shared. “I’m loving every second of it.”
Meanwhile, Kevin Babington continues to inspire, both in and out of the ring. His days are packed — giving 3 to 5 lessons daily, working with dedicated students in Florida, and even staying connected to his winter-season riders through virtual training sessions.
“I’ve actually gotten pretty good at this virtual coaching,” Kevin laughed. “Who knew I’d become so tech-savvy?”
In true Kevin fashion, he's taken his passion for teaching to new heights.
This week, he traveled to the World Equestrian Center – Ocala with three of his students to support them as they compete.
His knowledge, encouragement, and sheer love of the sport continue to elevate everyone around him.
Beyond the arena, Kevin has been contributing to research with the Miami Project — further proof that his impact reaches far beyond the saddle.
WHEN ASKED who he’s been watching on ClipMyHorse.TV, Kevin didn’t hesitate:
“Scott Brash — he’s riding better than ever. He’s clearly done the work, and it shows. Watching him at the European Championships has been phenomenal.”
From the ground to the screen, Kevin and Jonathan remind us what it means to keep pushing forward, doing what you love, and inspiring others along the way.
