   Horse riding

Man & horses, tradition & the search for a new sense of balance.
The main object of the way we manage our horse riding is to attempt to communicate with the horses with understanding & psychology instead of intimidation: self confidence in the saddle comes from feeling at one with the horse. We don’t use riding crops, bits, spurs, & instead use kindness & firmness. The results are good, not only from the ethical point of view, but also for the continuing relationship between Man & Animal, indispensable when one rides in the wild. Horses are not only for riding, & likewise, knowing how to mount a horse isn’t all that it takes to know horses. Only by having respect for how a horse’s mind works, its instinct for living with the herd & defending itself against predators, only then does one become a true horseman, or woman, 6 be sure to enjoy oneself, not just using the horse as a way of getting around, but also as a traveling companion.

EQUIHARMONY

Our programme is to combine people and horses, enjoyment, balance, harmony, health and adventure. We propose that horse riding be thought of as a game, a study in psychology, to be together both unmounted or riding bareback. The programme takes place both in the field or on nature trails. The length of each programme varies according to prior arrangement. Equiharmony is an emotional experience for both horse, and man or woman, young or old.
