Claus Hansen
I am Claus Hansen, member of the WBFSH
Department of Breeding.
Since 2008 I have been a Danish
Warmblood judge, and in 2011 I joined the breeding
management of the federation and later became
spokesperson. In 2024 I was appointed managing
director of the Danish Warmblood breeding society.
My passion for breeding originates
from my parents as they were successful breeders of
Danish Warmblood horses. My wife Annette Bugge and I
continue my parents stud name “Åtoften” and today we
breed on five dam-lines.
My aim is to use my experience as a
breeder and a judge to be the voice of the breeders
in WBFSH and in corporation with knowable and
passionate colleagues in the Breeding Department
facilitate a modern forward-thinking breeding
policy.
