Karin Rehbein , née Karin Rediske (born March 30, 1949 in Aurich ) is a German dressage rider . She achieved her greatest sporting successes with the stallion Donnerhall .
Career
Karin Rehbein was born in Aurich, East Frisia, and made her first riding experiences in Hamburg. Here they began at the age of two years, the North German and Flottbeker Riding Club, the organizer of the German Jumping and Dressage Derby , with the vaulting . Her father worked here as a forage master. According to her own statements, she had her first equestrian successes at the age of twelve, after which she specialized in dressage riding. At the age of 21 she won the Hamburg championships.
In 1971 she married Herbert Rehbein . At the age of 25 she moved to Grönwohld , where she worked on Otto Schulte-Frohlinde's Grönwohldhof. Schulte-Frohlinde, Herbert and Karin Rehbein subsequently expanded the estate into one of the leading riding and breeding centers in German equestrian sport.
In 1994 she won the German Championships , but in the absence of then favorites Nicole Uphoff-Becker , Isabell Werth and Monica Theodorescu . Because of this title, she was initially invited to the World Cup training camp, but the invitation was later withdrawn. Rehbein commented: We have known this for a number of years. We are professionals. For us life goes on. Karin Rehbein joined the team because of a hoof ulcer on Monica Theodorescu's horse Grunox . Rehbein, who has been among the top ten dressage riders in the world rankings for over ten years, represented Germany for the first time in 1994 at a championship, the World Equestrian Games in The Hague. Here she also won the individual bronze medal with Donnerhall .
After Karin Rehbein had to cope with the death of her husband in the summer of 1997 and then canceled the start at the CHIO in Aachen, she got the opportunity to start again at a championship thanks to second place at the German championships. At the European Championships in Verden, she was able to repeat her result in individual and team ratings with Donnerhall . At the end of Donnerhall's career, Rehbein was able to win team gold with him again a year later, in the individual standings they just missed a medal.
At the place where her equestrian career began, at the German Show Jumping and Dressage Derby , she won the dressage derby five times between 1982 and 1998. With the horses Miss Holstein and Cherie she won the Nuremberg Castle Cup in 2000 and 2003 .
Karin Rehbein is supported by the former show jumping and dressage rider Madeleine Winter-Schulze , with whom she has been friends for decades. Winter-Schulze made the stallion Florianus available to her, which she had leased to Rehbein until he was sold to the United States in 2008. Her current Grand Prix horse World Idol is also owned by Madeleine Winter-Schulze.
After Otto Schulte-Frohlinde's death in the early 1990s, his son took over the business, but he himself had no lasting interest in continuing the plant. He tried to sell the plant, which ultimately led to the closure of the company at the end of July 2011. Up to this point, Karin Rehbein managed the training stable at Grönwohldhof as a rider. Ultimately, the sale did not take place, the farm was only sold in January 2012.
Karin Rehbein then moved to Reinbek , where she and her student Kristy Oatley housed their horses in a stable in the Büchsenschinken district. Rehbein has been based in Großensee since December 2011 .
In an interview from 2007, she stated that success has meanwhile had a different status for her. After her husband's death from cancer and after suffering from her own back, it became clear to her that staying healthy is the most important thing.
In 2011 she said about her sporting future: I just want to have fun with the horse and ride for the top places in the Grand Prix. Riding was, is and always will be my life.
In 2014 Karin Rehbein ended her active sports career as part of the German Dressage Derby .
