 | The 7th - 10th of April the 5th FEIF breeding horse trainer seminar was held here at Skeiðvellir. This is the 4th one that we here at Skeiðvellir / Ice Events are hosting and this time we had 23 riders from Iceland, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Austria and Netherlands. As always the program is very tight schedule with lectures and practical training. This time for the lectures and training we had the international judges, Marlise Grimm, Friðrik Már Sigurðsson and Elsa Albertsdóttir. Then for the shoeing part, Sigurður Sæmundsson, breeding trainer Guðmundur Björgvinsson to help with the presentation in riding assessment and lecture from young rider Hekla Katharina Kristinsdóttir and panel discussions. The group of riders attending the seminar was truly talented, full with positive energy and eager to learn. The seminar was inspiring as well for us who are hosting the seminar and great to get to know so many future breeding horse trainers. |
