STEVEN BLUMAN
Biography
Steven, the youngest member of the Bluman family, started his riding after the older of his cousins and brothers. As he grew older and moved to America to pursue his sport further, he realized what was most important for him. He grew to appreciate that success in the ring comes from the work and dedication at home:
“When I started riding, I started because I loved the horse as an animal. I didn’t know anything about competition or high level sport. As I grew more passionate about it, I understood that in order to be successful I had to learn from the ground up. The ground in our case is being able to properly manage your horses from what they eat to what their weekly plan is. The most important part of that weekly plan is the flat work. Without proper flat work, it’s impossible for a horse to perform at its best. Flat work is the foundation of our sport. Without it, everything crumbles.”
The way Steven leads his string of horses and team members is with close attention to management and horsemanship, since he believes it is a requirement no matter the level you aspire to be in.
Besides being a successful professional, Steven is the founder and CEO of the highly innovative mobile app, Equo (www.ridewithequo.com).
