Taking the shoes off with International Israeli show jumper Daniel Bluman✨
Two years ago, Daniel began researching the advantages of going barefoot with performance horses. Over the course of the last 20 months, he has been putting his knowledge into practice by managing a group of his mounts without shoes.
“I’ve also gotten a much more intimate relationship with my horses, as I personally do the trimming for each of them,” explained Daniel. “They are constantly giving me information through the behavior of their feet. I value and respect the work done by good farriers, and expanding my knowledge about feet gives me a much better read about my horses’ health, technique, and management.
“It’s important to remember that each horse is an individual and to treat them as such as you navigate the barefoot journey with them,” continued Daniel. 🗣️

When I started back in 2016, I never anticipated the company growing beyond myself.
Had I known the evolution and expansion that was ahead, I may not have named the company after myself 🤦♀️ But I wouldn’t change a thing otherwise.
It’s definitely not just me anymore. We’re ending 2023 with a multi-faceted team—a group of kind, talented women, all active participants in equestrian sport 💪
I want to showcase them, everyone’s unique perspectives, and most importantly, the incredible individuals, farms, brands and horses with which we are working and the inspiring stories we are telling ✨
It’s long overdue, but I’ve taken the leap and separated and into separate accounts. Please give a follow to keep up with the exciting things we have happening; get fun BTS content with top industry figures and events; and help us strengthen the storytelling in the equestrian industry 🎥📸💻✍️📱🎙️🐴
This group has come together in a manner similar to this business: I was presented with an idea that was too good not to see through. And for the first time ever, we have the capacity to do more.
If you have an inspiring story, we want to tell it. If you want an all-encompassing marketing team that will help build up your brand, get creative, have fun and think outside the box 📦 we will be there in the trenches with you.
If you love horses, sport and a documentarian style, you’ve come to the right place. Thank you, sincerely for following.

, here *we* come
For the past five years, has been a one-woman band in the fast lane ⚡ and in the last two years, business has grown more than I could have anticipated. I have much for which to be grateful.
But the growing pains were seriously felt, and as I headed toward the latter end of 2022, I knew I needed to make a choice to either expand or scale down. Honestly, I wasn't sure I was ready to make a hire, even though the clients lining up were ones to which I did not want to say no.
But when the only person that I truly felt shared my vision (and who didn't already have their own amazing empire) came to me looking to make a change, everything was suddenly very clear.
I'm thrilled to officially welcome one of my very best friends, the incredibly talented to . Tori will head up a significantly expanded video division, and we're ready to make some moves this year!
To the clients that have long supported me, I am so excited to reward you with the new things coming your way in 2023. To new clients, we are so excited to work with you and thank you for believing in us. To colleagues, we can't wait to collaborate with you. To the horse show industry, thank you for building us up and giving us the most special sport to cover and showcase.
That we got to start our year working with the top class team at truly set us out on the right foot. Let's do this! 📸 🎥🎤🎙️✍️💻

When it comes to horse show eats, Magdalena’s is synonymous with @wellington_international ✨
Magdalena Santiago began her work at the horse show delivering feed and shavings in 1989. As she made her way to jump crew, her co-workers began noticing the delicious lunches she packed for herself—and asked her to make them their own 🌮
It sparked an entire restaurant business. Magdalena’s Mexican Food opened at WEF in 1997 and has only grown since.
📍Look for Magdalena’s at Ring 10 for one of the horse show’s most iconic workers.

It’s the #WEF2024 [Grand] Finale and the last five-star of the year in Wellington 🌴
What goes into setting the courses for a five-star week? It’s a lot more than “just” setting a five-star Grand Prix course. The design process starts weeks before the show starts and isn’t finalized until the day of the competition.
We caught up with FEI Level 4 Course Designer Alan Wade to learn more about what it’s like setting in the International Arena at @wellington_international.

The importance of the ingate cannot be overstated, especially at a circuit as large as #WEF2024 ✨
Brandon King—known by most as simply “BK”— is the face of Ring 10, and he’s charged with keeping the competition running smoothy with the other 12 arenas on the @wellingtoninternational_wef grounds 🗣️
He’s also become a favorite for his positive attitude and the encouragement he gives riders upon their entry into the arena. After all, as a former rider himself, he can relate to this group, and he’s seen a lot of talented riders come up the levels by way of Ring 10 over the years in Wellington.
