KEVIN KOHMANN FACES OF DRESSAGE
Kevin Kohmann grew up around horses in Germany. His success started with ponies, where in 2002, he won the pony regional championships. After that, Kohmann was regarded as a talented young professional and recruited to the U.S. to work under top trainers. This gave him the opportunity to ride more difficult horses. It was soon apparent that Kohmann could take even the most difficult horses and turn them into successful and willing partners. During this time, he managed to show several horses at the Grand Prix level. Kohmann joined the Diamante Farms training team in 2014, and he remains based in Wellington. He was part of the winning German team in the 2021 AGDF Nations Cup CDIO3*. Now an American citizen, he plans to ride for the U.S. in the future.
