About Elise Kettner

My name is Elise Kettner, Grand Prix dressage rider and a certified ORUN level 4 instructor with the Dutch equestrian sports federation (KNHS).
With my company Kettner Quality Products, founded in 2015, I develop innovative and functional products for equestrian sports.

In 2012, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in commercial sports economics from the Johan Cruyff Institute in Amsterdam, where I later also completed the International Master in Sport Management and the Master in Coaching.

Since 2007 I have been training under the guidance of Tineke and Imke Schellekens Bartels at Academy Bartels.
Additionally, I am coached by Hans Peter Minderhoud.
I also enjoy training motivated riders.

The origin of Kettner Products

In 2016, I launched my first product: the bridle numbers.
In 2017, the bridle number “The Kettner Snap Diamond” was chosen as Horses Product of the Year 2016 in the category ‘Tack Room & Other’

At the end of 2018, I introduced the Kettner Plaiting Kit to the market.
This is a handmade plaiting bag made of genuine cowhide, available in various color combinations and prints.
In 2019 & 2020, our plaiting bag was chosen as Horses Product of the Year in the category ‘’Care & Other’’.

While playing a board game on Christmas Eve, I came up with the idea for ‘ The Great Horse Knowledge Boardgame Equi Quiz’
This fun and educational board game is for all horse enthusiasts aged 12 and up.
Equi Quiz is only available in Dutch and therefore not available in our English webshop.

I have developed these products with great care and love.
I hope there is something you like and that you enjoy it!
