Life
Thomas Kleis comes from a family of equestrians and has been in the saddle since he was a child. He later received training as a gas and water plumber.

Subsequently, from 2005 he worked in Wendorf near Schwerin on the grounds of the castle for the Austrian Udo M. Chistée, who continues to provide horses to Kleis. At the beginning of 2011 he started his own business and founded a tournament and trading company.
