Biography Nina Fagerström - Finca Horses

Biography

Nina started riding at an early age. Her mother is a passionate horsewoman and that guided Nina’s path.  She had the possibility to ride in riding schools and compete in small competitions with friend’s horses until the age of 14. 
 
She then got an opportunity to ride and compete the horses of Finnish showjumping Olympian, Christopher Wegelius. That led her to be part of the junior showjumping team and to compete in GP level when she was only 15 years old. 
 
After four successful years with Christopher, it was time for Nina to spread her wings and move to Belgium to work for Stephan Conter. 
 
The ten years that Nina spent training, producing and competing hundreds of horses was an amazing learning process. In the end of those years Nina was successful riding the horses of Stephex Stables and Eric Lamaze up to 5* level and was highest ranked as nr 46th in the FEI ranking for international showjumping riders.
 
In 2011 Nina started her own company Finca Horses with Alexander Rohling. Together they first established a stable in Europe before spending three years in USA and Canada. In 2017 Nina moved back to Belgium to continue the story of Finca, doing what she loves most:
Producing, training, and competing quality show jumpers and coaching riders from all around the world.
