"LEADERSHIP BEGINS NOT ONLY IN THE CLASSROOM BUT IN EVERY ASPECT OF LIFE"
It was noted that Yasmin, who started working with her coach Sefa Keskin at the age of 5.5, achieved this success after 1.5 years of intensive training.
Evaluating Yasmin's success, Filiz Kepme, the Chairperson of the Executive Board of Istanbul Lider College, stated that self-confidence is at the core of modern educational approaches and said: "We are not just raising children who are successful in their classes; we are nurturing leaders who have dreams and the discipline to pursue those dreams. With her determination since the age of 5.5, Yasmin has become the best example of our school's vision that 'Every child is a leader.'
"A REFLECTION OF OUR MODEL"
In a discipline like equestrianism, which requires high focus, reaching the championship podium at the age of 7 is a significant indicator of character. Yasmin's success is a reflection of our educational model that blends academic development with the discipline of sports. I wholeheartedly congratulate her and her family who support this passion."
