At Los Alazanas de Minnesota, we are passionately dedicated to unlocking the potential of young women, aged [e.g., 12-25], by cultivating their confidence and talents through the transformative art of Escaramuza charrería. Our program provides a nurturing space where each rider grows into a stronger, more self-assured individual, mastering the intricate skills of synchronized equestrian performance while riding sidesaddle in the iconic adelita dresses. This rigorous training builds discipline, enhances physical and mental resilience, and fosters teamwork—life skills that empower our girls to excel both in and out of the arena. Rooted in the rich heritage of Mexican charrería, we instill a deep sense of cultural pride, connecting our riders to their Minnesota Hispanic community and inspiring them to lead with purpose. How We Empower Our Youth: Boosting Confidence: Overcoming the challenges of Escaramuza’s demanding routines helps each rider embrace her strengths, turning hesitation into boldness with every gallop. Nurturing Talents: Through dedicated practice, our riders refine their equestrian expertise, artistic expression, and competitive spirit, preparing them for events like our triumphant trip to the National competition in Texas last year. Fostering Leadership: From guiding younger teammates to choreographing performances, our girls step into leadership roles, developing decision-making and mentorship skills that shape their futures. Inspiring the Community: By performing at local events and hosting youth clinics, our riders serve as role models, encouraging girls across Minnesota to pursue their passions with pride and determination.

Testimonials

 

“Last year, I had the honor of donating to Los Alazanas de Minnesota, and I’m bursting with pride knowing my contribution helped these incredible young women ride their way to the National Escaramuza competition in Texas. Watching them perform with such grace, strength, and cultural pride was a moment I’ll never forget. Their synchronized routines in those stunning adelita dresses showcased not just their equestrian skill but the heart of our Mexican heritage right here in Minnesota. My donation helped cover travel costs, ensuring these talented athletes could compete on a national stage, and seeing their success made every penny worth it. Los Alazanas isn’t just a team—they’re empowering young women, strengthening our community, and keeping charrería alive. I’m thrilled to support them again this year, and I encourage everyone to join me in backing their mission. Let’s keep these riders galloping toward greatness!”

“As a parent, watching my daughter ride with Los Alazanas de Minnesota has been one of the proudest moments of my life. Joining this Escaramuza team has transformed her—she’s grown into a confident, disciplined young woman who carries our Mexican heritage with every graceful move on horseback. Last year’s journey to the National competition in Texas was a dream come true for her, made possible by generous donors who believed in these girls. Los Alazanas isn’t just about riding; it’s about building leadership, teamwork, and cultural pride in Minnesota’s youth. I’m so grateful for this program and the community it creates. I urge everyone to donate and support Los Alazanas—your gift empowers our daughters to shine and keeps this beautiful tradition alive!”
