Italia Endurance Stables & Academy was founded way back in 1989 and went on to become an unforgettable destination for Italian and international endurance riding. Thanks to this history and the latest results achieved, Fuxiateam is today one of the strongest endurance teams in the world.
An old staging post became the home of Le Corse, thanks to Giorgio Laliscia and Stelvio Zecca. Karoun and Gianluca Laliscia participated in their first rides as pioneers in endurance riding.
The synergy between Il Poggio and Le Corse Endurance Team is born. Quality workouts were held in San Casciano dei Bagni where the best athletes of those years met, among them is Gianluca Laliscia.
Gianluca Laliscia began to take endurance riding more seriously and attends the European Championship with Il Poggio – Le Corse Endurance Team at Pratoni del Vivaro in Rome with Valeriana.
“Umbria Endurance Equestrian Team” was formed and Fausto Fiorucci placed second at the Dubai World Championships on the legendary Faris Jabar.
There was a meeting of the minds with His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
The first big event – the World Cup – in Tavernelle was organized, sponsored by none other than the Emirates. Gianluca Laliscia and his staff celebrated their first accomplishments.
Two weeks after the Twin Towers fell, the European Open Championships were held in Castiglione del Lago and the Pre Ride di Piana in Perugia took place. Fausto Fiorucci took the gold at the European Championships and then there was a team gold for Alessandro Baldicchi, leaders who also took silver medals in the European Open Championship.
Big events were held not just in Umbria, but also in Costa Smeralda, with the FEI Emirates Endurance Masters. His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum decided to entrust his most promising horses to Gianluca Laliscia, which began the “Young Horse Project.” The record of achievements grew with the World Champions team silver medal for Fausto Fiorucci.
Another two team gold medals at the World Championships YJ and absolute domination in the Italian Cup for the Umbria Endurance Equestrian Team. The first edition of the Endurance Cup was held with great success.
The Italian Championship in Castiglione del Lago broke records. This year’s list of awards boasted gold for Carlo Di Battista at the Italian Championships YJ and for Carlo Formica at the Italian Cup.
Gianluca Laliscia and Jamil Bello made history: the team took the gold for Italy at the World Championships in Dubai.

Gianluca Laliscia and Carlo Di Battista, who both rode Amir di Pegaso, won the gold team medal, the individual silver at CEIO in Gubbio and silver at the European Championship YJ Open. Gianluca was also summoned to join the national team for Aachen’s WEG.
UEET began to work with sistemaeventi.it, becoming the operational branch for the first edition of the Assisi Endurance Lifestyle. Gianluca Laliscia is awarded with the gold medal for athletic value by Italian National Olympic Committee.
The first victory of her career for Costanza Laliscia: she became the Italian champion Pony on Flamenco in Assisi.
Gianluca Laliscia was the first signer for the Code of Ethics for the wellfare of horses, promoted by the Ministry of Health, and was nominated Italian ambassador of endurance riding by the Italian Equestrian Federation. UEET continued to expand and contributed to the realization of Meydan City FEI European Endurance Championship Open 2009 in Assisi.
Gianluca Laliscia reached the top of the national rankings and received his eighth invitation to serve on the national team at the WEG in Lexington. The stables expanded their horizons with the Mecha Tapia Argentinian stables, in addition to the already strong relationship with the Dubai Equestrian Club.
Audi teamed up with the Umbria Endurance Equestrian Team, giving life to the Audi Endurance Team. In the meantime, the stables continued to strengthen with the arrival of veterinarian Angelo Paris. Carolina Tavassoli Asli participated in the World Championship YJ in Abu Dhabi on Fiwa di Pegaso and was the only Italian to finish the ride.
Umbria Endurance Equestrian Team converts itself in Italia Endurance and the Fuxiateam adventure began. A key player on the scene with an international competition record that includes eight first places, two seconds, three thirds and a gold for Costanza Laliscia at Ponyadi. This was the year of Marche Endurance Lifestyle, which reconfirmed the partnership with sistemaeventi.it and saw the victory of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
The Italia Endurance wins of 2013 count seven victories, two second places and one third place in various international competitions. The collaboration with sistemaeventi.it continues with two events: Marche Endurance Lifestyle and Sardegna Endurance Lifestyle.
Costanza Laliscia won the Italian Championship Junior & Young Riders while Gianluca Laliscia made his debut as the trainer for the national military team, which won a team bronze. Costanza Laliscia and Carolina Tavassoli Asli were invited to the WEG in Normandy. A trio of events took place with the Umbria Endurance Lifestyle, Marche Endurance Lifestyle, and Sardegna Endurance Lifestyle.
The Italia Endurance Stables & Academy brand was founded.

Italia Endurance Stables & Academy deepens its roots in the new centre at Agello, focusing on training programmes worthy of the greatest victories. Thanks to the expertise of a large technical staff and the best facilities in existence, but especially because of the horses and riders, the Fuxiateam celebrated the wins of Costanza Laliscia, with a gold at the Italian Championship for Junior & Young Riders and a silver at the Italian Championship. Carolina Tavassoli Asli with the National team participates in the WEG in Tryon.
2019 proves to be a fundamental year for Italia Endurance Stables & Academy. The Fuxiateam conquers Europe with the most important title so far won by the top rider Costanza Laliscia at Euston Park (UK), that of European Champion which adds up to the 2nd time title of Winner of the FEI Endurance World Ranking YJ and to the 2nd and 3rd places respectively at the Italian Championships Senior and YJ. As if that were not enough, Carolina Tavassoli Asli also reaches its peak with the gold medal at the Italian Championship. At the same time, the Academy is launched with a very successful Masterclass.
2020 presented itself as the year of the pandemic, the year of Covid-19. Since February, a series of measures have been taken, adopted by the Italian government, aimed at countering the spread of the virus. Measures that have been presented more and more stringent, to the point of declaring Italy entirely red zone with the suspension of any competitive and educational activity. However, it was a year served to recharge one’s energy.
2021 was the year of the restart also for us, undoubtedly one of the best in its history. The determination and the incentives to go beyond the Covid-19 pandemic and its consequences are testified by the strength and dynamism with which the organization of the Longines FEI Endurance World Championship 2021 is faced, the World Championship that on May 22 in Pisa writes a memorable page in the history of world endurance. The undoubted success of the event also involves the Fuxiateam, which wins the individual bronze medal thanks to the binomial Boni Benjamin De Vivero-Embrujo representing Chile.
On the other hand, 2021 is a year of confirmations for Costanza Laliscia, who wears the Italian national team jersey at the European Championship in Ermelo (Holland) and, riding Assim du Barthas, wins the team bronze medal. New satisfactions also come from the great work carried out at the Academy which materializes with the gold medal won at the Italian Pony Championship by Vittoria Monetti. Victories and gratifications that contaminate our daily activities, which in the Agello structure further develops collateral activities and internships in collaboration with the Italian Equestrian Federation as well as special events that increase the visibility and centrality of the location and the ambitious project that animates it.
In 2022 we exported our technical-organizational skills outside Italy, more precisely in the desert of AlUla (KSA) where the organization of the Fursan Cup 2022 achieves success at all levels.
In Pisa – San Rossore, on the other hand, under our organization, the VIM spa Italian Endurance Championships Open are staged, which for the first time in the history of endurance see all categories from Seniors to Ponies within a single event for a total of 213 participants.
Numerous satisfactions come with the great project carried out by the Academy, which sees its pupils win all four categories of the Italian Pony Championships and the Italian Under 14 Championships in the CEN B/R and CEN A categories.
Costanza Laliscia, on the other hand, continues to collect successes with the prestigious sixth place at the Fursan Cup 2022 and the title of Italian Senior Vice Champion riding Emirat du Barthas.
2022 is certainly a memorable year, where the numbers speak for themselves… 68 rides and 20 victories, between horses and ponies, 16 different horses and 19 young riders attending the rides, a sign of a fantastic daily work and an Academy that nurtures future talents, a total of 3.168,9 km completed, equal to 96,9%.
The link with Saudi Arabia continues in 2023 too and the technical-sport organization of the Fursan CUP 2023 in Alula is unanimously successful.
Instead, we returned to Umbria, more precisely to Castiglione del Lago, with the organization of the VIM Italian Endurance Championships 2023 which saw over 200 participants in all categories, from Seniors to Ponies.
The Fuxiateam conquers Italy, with Costanza Laliscia winning two Italian titles, in the CEI3* and in the CEI2*, in two consecutive days and with the conquest of all four Italian Pony Championships by Vittoria Monetti, Aurora Laurenzi, Costanza Monetti and Alfonso Sabatino. Fuxiateam’s palmares then widens with the third place of Greta Bistoletti at the Italian Young Riders Championship, with the victory of all the pony categories at the Ponyadi by Vittoria Monetti, Aurora Laurenzi and Massimo Vittorio Cavallari and with the team bronze medal of Costanza at the World Championship in Boutheeb.
In 2024, we renewed our commitment to Saudi Arabia with the technical and sporting organization of the Fursan CUP in AlUla, an event that, once again, received unanimous acclaim on an international level.
Costanza Laliscia confirmed herself as a leading figure in both Italian and international endurance: she claimed the Italian Championship title in the CEI2* 120 km and shone at the Fursan CUP CEI3* 160 km, where she achieved an outstanding fifth place in a highly competitive race. Federico Valeri enriched our achievements with a prestigious third place in the Italian CEIYJ2* Championship.
Our Academy continued to excel: for the third consecutive year, our young athletes, Aurora Laurenzi, Vittoria Monetti, Costanza Monetti, and Massimo Vittorio Cavallari, claimed all the Italian Pony titles. Additionally, at the 2024 Ponyadi, our students dominated all endurance categories: Pony Elite, Pony B, and Pony A.
A truly extraordinary year, marked by successes that reinforce our position as a reference point in endurance and in training the next generation of talent.
