Videos of Sjoerd from
IFSHA Friesian World Championships
2011 IFSHA World Champion
Friesian Liberty Stallion
Watch until the end of the
video, when Sjoerd's music begins to replay after the Champion roses have
been placed on his back, I LOVE what the gentleman at the end of the video
does. Standing to his feet, he raises his hands in praise and honor of God.
I do not know this man, nor did I see him do that at the time. It was not
until I purchased this video from the show videographer and saw the man
drawn to praise God at that moment, it absolutely moved my soul. It made the
long haul from southern CA to Virginia with 6 horses and 3 teenage girls;
the days, weeks and months of preparation and training; the thousands of
dollars we had to raise for the trip and the sacrifices made in order to to
compete at the 2011 World Champions COMPLETELY and utterly worth it! Whether
he was the only one or whether there were others, touching his life alone is
priceless to us. We hope you watch this video and are blessed!

Sjoerd Is The Most Highly Decorated Friesian In North America
and the #1 Friesian Sire in the USA for
2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015!
Sjoerd - The Stallion Of A Lifetime
Sjoerd (pronounced like Short but with a "d" on the end) is a gift from God and we hope
you are blessed and touched by his pages of videos and photos! Sjoerd
is an elegant Purebred Friesian who is a Triple Ster (Star) First Premie, High Merit stallion,
imported from the Netherlands. He is elegant,
absolutely captivating and the
phenomenal quality of this exceptional stallion is simply
undeniable.
Sjoerd has been DNA tested by UC
Davis to be Homozygous for black, you will never get a chestnut foal
out of Sjoerd. He is the only breeding stallion in the U.S. sired
by TSJALKE 397. A GREAT outcross stallion for the heavily in-bred
U.S. lines.
Sjoerd is truly a *one-of-a-kind* Friesian
stallion. His disposition, unique conformation, and incredible
movement: elevation and impulsion WITH extension not only garnered
him 74 IFSHA Friesian World Champion Friesian Titles
but he consistently wins over the hearts of spectators and judges! Sjoerd is a CHAMPION in multiple disciplines: In-Hand, Saddle
Seat, Show Hack, Liberty, Equitation, Dressage, Driving, In-Hand Trail, Walk/Trot,
Ridden Trail, Hunter, Junior Equitation, Western and Costume. He is an INCREDIBLE VERSATILE athlete.
The
Friesian Heritage Horse (HH), the German (FPZV) and the Dutch (KFPS) registries
ALL awarded him the coveted (and not easily
earned!) STAR (ster) status the first time he was presented for it making
him a rare TRIPLE STAR STALLION. He was then
bestowed the extreme honor of achieving a near PERFECT score at his
2009 FPZV Inspection and he was "Highly Recommended" for the FPZV Stallion Performance Testing at just 4 years old!
In 2011 he went through a very thorough official FEIT Inspection
through the Friesian Heritage Horse Registry (HH) and he was awarded
Star, First Premie, High Merit and the highest scoring horse in his
category in the history of the registry! All of Sjoerd's Purebred
Friesian and Part-bred Friesian foals are eligible for registration
through Friesian Heritage Horse, IFSHA and USEF.

with his FEIT
High Merit ribbon and FEIT 1st Premie ribbon awarded through the
Friesian Heritage Horse Registry (HH). Sjoerd's Purebred Friesian
and Part-bred Friesian foals are eligible for inspection
and registration through multiple registries and have
full showing and breeding rights throughout the USA!
Sjoerd has a short, strong
back, short coupling, and deep, strong hip give him a natural ability to collect under himself
and his extremely laid back shoulder and perfectly set neck make him an
incredible ride at any gait.
Feel free to come meet Sjoerd in person and be
prepared to FALL IN LOVE! Sjoerd is a different kind of
Friesian! Sjoerd
LOVES people and his willing heart an attitude make every thing we
do with him a sheer pleasure. He has greatly blessed our lives and
we hope to share him with you through his pages of photos and
videos.
Sjoerd is simply an amazing stallion, beyond description or
comprehension; truly a horse of a lifetime!
He has superior conformation, an incredible
disposition, extreme athleticism, unparalleled versatility with exceptional beauty. He also
passes these traits consistently on to his foals.
Sjoerd possesses phenomenal athletic talent
and he has a presence about him that is indescribable. If you like
him in his photos and videos, you will love him in person.

He is an amazing and special stallion with a huge heart, extreme presence and
talent
unlike any you have ever seen.

SJOERD'S USEF HORSE OF THE YEAR
AWARD
Sjoerd is the only Friesian stallion
in history to achieve this prestigious award
Sjoerd's
2011 United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) Horse Of The Year
trophy
Sjoerd,
Tynan and Anaiah are highly trained and highly skilled. They have been
BEAUTIFULLY captured by the incredible photographer Kevin Kidder. We
have spend years training our beautiful Friesian stallion Sjoerd. Tynan and Anaiah
have been riding their entire lives and they work very hard to be able
to achieve such an exceptional level of riding to perform the things you
see in these photos.
PLEASE appreciate the photos for the hard work, talent and years of
training that went into creating them. If in doubt, you may contact
Kevin Kidder and he can provide detailed information on the photos for
those who just cannot accept that the photos are all real. If you STILL
doubt, come on out and see SJOERD for yourselves, he will blow you away!
Typically we keep articles on Sjoerd on his
Sjoerd
Press Releases Page. However, this Feb 2012 issue of the
California Horsetrader was too incredible an experience to not share here on Sjoerd's
main page. We are extremely thankful and grateful to the California Horsetrader
for giving us the opportunity to share Sjoerd's story.
I am very touched and honored Warren Wilson chose to do this
