NEDA Know How

Join the NEDA Know How moderators as they chat with Felicitas Hendricks on all things Young Riders/US and Europe/GP. Felicitas won the Nations Cup in Wellington in 2023 with the German team, and at the European Championships, she not only won individual gold, but also secured another gold medal with the German team. Felicita's tip for anyone who wants to be successful in this sport is to focus on yourself, your horse and the team around you. It's great to be inspired by other riders, but at the end of the day everyone has to find their own way.

Setting: Live Virtual

Dawn Mackenzie

Felicitas grew up in Düsseldorf and lived there until she was 13 years old. She then moved to Hagen in Germany, where her uncle and trainer Christoph Koschel lives, because she wanted to get more involved with horses and riding.

She had her first contact with horses as a small child at a local riding school. When she was ten years old, she fell in love with a pony who lived in an animal shelter that her parents' friends ran at the time. Felicita's parents were able to buy her this pony, and since then she can no longer imagine life without horses. Competing wasn't always her goal, she started riding because she fell in love with horses, not because she wanted to compete. When she moved to Hagen, she had countless great tournaments around the corner, for example Horses & Dreams at Hof Kasselmann. This is how she fell in love with tournament sports. She has always been fascinated by the harmony between horse and rider during the most difficult exercises in dressage tests.
