Reflecting on her success at the REL 2025, Stasya says, " Horses have always helped me through a lot in life. When I started, I thought of riding only as fun and happiness. But as I rode and competed more, I realized it's not just about the joy, it's about how it shapes me as a person. My understanding, personality, and focus have improved tremendously.

My family has been very supportive, ensuring I have access to all the necessary facilities and training. My extended family at Amateur Riders Club (ARC), along with the top-tier training facilities and the specialised coaching program by my coach, Bobin Tshering, have greatly improved my riding skills. In equestrian sports, your biggest competitor is yourself. The better I become, the more opportunities I create for myself to build a successful future, with the hope of one day representing India."(ANI)
