Antoni Chłapowski
Antoni Chłapowski, a descendant of Dezydery Chłapowski, is the founder and owner of the Jaszkowo Horse Riding Centre.
The first professional sport practised by Antoni Chłapowski was Ford formula racing, which brought him Denmark champion title, a Sweden vice-champion title, a Benelux vice-champion title and a 2nd place in the final qualifying round of the 1972 World Championship.
After a few years of his racing career, Antoni Chłapowski switched from machines to horses. He graduated from the famous Swedish National Equestrian Centre in Strömsholm, where he obtained the highest training degree RIK III. He continued his career as an excellent rider, representing Sweden in equestrian sports.
For many years, Antoni Chłapowski trained in the most famous stables of Europe – with Jan Mathausen, Thomas and Markus Fuchs, Willy Melligera, Stanny van Paesschen, Helena and Peter Weinberg. Currently, he is a consummate trainer, a promoter of pony riding for children and youth, a professional horseshoer. It is thanks to his all-round activity that the Riding Centre has a riding club, a horseshoe fitting school, and a horse trainer school project has been initiated. In 2003, Antoni Chłapowski was distinguished by the Wielkopolskie Voivodship Marshal with an honorary award for his merits for the Wielkopolskie Voivodship.
