Y/ELM+ Protection proudly presents core ambassador:Ebba Danielsson

  • Core Ambassador & Pathfinder Ebba Danielsson is a name we won't forget anytime soon. 

    Quite the opposite actually. The emerging star is making a name for herself right now and In this instant, she is on her way to leave a great mark in the world of equestrian sports. 

    From a victory at the Grand Prix in Haagen, Germany, to top placements on various competitions and just recently winning a class at Falsterbo Horse show (where she beat some of Swedens leading professionals, at the young age of 16), she has a lot to be proud of.

    Her young age, combined with an extraordinary amount of grit and eagerness to do more and be better than anyone before her caught the eye of the Y/ELM+ team early on. 

    With characteristics like that, she has already brought inspiration not only to us, but to riders all over the world. Regardless of age or orientation.

  • Y/ELM+ founder Alexandra Berhe agrees that with someone like Ebba on the team, Y/ELM+ are growing the capacity to inspire and support riders on a whole new level. An aspiration that has been in Y/ELM+s DNA from the beginning. 

    Ebba will join Team Y/ELM+ as a Pathfinder and Core Ambassador. A role we think fits her perfectly. Simultaneously with this, Ebba will do her internship at the Y/ELM+ headquarters in central Stockholm.

    We are so grateful to be able to provide a place for Ebba to deepen her skills and learnings while studying for her exams. 

    Ebba is a true game-changer and we are all about that energy.
