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.
