Floor has been an inspector for the KWPN since March 2017. After completing her HBO Equestrian training at NHB Deurne, Floor started working in education. She has been employed by the former National Equestrian College in Deurne for eight years and has, among other things, fulfilled the position of educational coordinator. She then transferred to another branch, where she worked as team leader of the Animal- and Equine management course.

Floor was no stranger to the KWPN when she started, as she was a training rider for several years in the Stallion Performance test. When the EPTM tests were still held in Deurne, she also was a test rider there. Being a rider for these tests, sparked Floor’s interest in breeding.

Floor currently runs a small breeding program at home, including her 13 year old Bretton Woods mare Hera, which she bred out of the top mare Astrid Sollenburg by OO Seven x Metall. Floor rode Astrid from EPTM all the way to Grand Prix. Floor has regularly sat in the judge’s booth at competitions as well, as she is certified to judge up to the Small Tour.

Floor’s main tasks as senior Inspector for the KWPN include assessing horses and advising breeders. She judges the Pavo Cup, Stallion Competition and is involved in the Stallion Selection committee. Floor is deployed Internationally as well and since the last three years, she is part of the judging team on the North American inspection Tour and the North American Stallion Sport test.
