Pia Virginia Fortmüller: Horse Hero Interview...

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME....

I grew up in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and will therefore always be a Canadian cowgirl at heart. After I graduated from high school I moved to Germany for a year where I lived and worked at Gestuet Tasdorf. I then returned to Canada to continue my education and moved to Vancouver British Columbia, I lived there for five years, where I trained full time with Canadian Olympian, Leslie Reid, during this time I finished my Bachelor of Psychology with a minor in early childhood education at Simon Fraser University. Upon completing my BA degree I made the decision to give my dressage career my full dedication. As of September 2009 I moved to Germany, to live, work and train towards my dream of representing Canada internationally. For the first 6 months of my move to Germany I trained with Canadian Olympian Leonie Bramall, who also works closely with German Olympian, Heike Kemmer, and as a result the opportunity presented itself for me to move to Amselhof Walle, where I lived for 4 years and trained full time with Heike Kemmer. During this time I also worked closely with the renowned German trainer, Jonny Hilberath. In the fall of 2013 I made the decision to work full time with Jonny Hilberath and I boarded at his stable in Abbendorf for most of 2014. Then in the fall of 2014 I moved my horses to Gestuet Famos which then lead me to my current home base which is a beautiful barn in Kirchewalsede. As of to date I train with both Anna Sophie Fibelkorn and her long time trainer Hans Heinrich Meyer Zu Strohen.

This is a blog which I have set up to to share my thoughts, interesting stories, motivational quotes and inspirational ideas.
