Training is available for all riders and horses no matter the size or skill level. We can focus on riding rising trot in balance or work on the piaffe-passage transitions. All horses are equal and the most important goal of the training is finding the harmony and joy of moving together.

During my career with horses I have ridden a wide variety of horses from finnhorses to icelandics and ex-trotters to top level dressage horses, so we can certainly find the best exercises for you and your horse no matter what your goals are.

During training we always move forward depending on your goals and skill level, always taking care of the horses wellbeing and focus on finding a harmony through good seat and light aids.

You can work with a horse in many ways from the ground. This training is for you if you need help or want to get better with for example working with different yelds to exercise your horse, lunging, handwalking or riding exercises from the ground.

Have you always wanted to grow and develop together with your horse, or are there missing parts in your horses education, and you wish you could solve the issues you face by yourself? Would you like to teach your horse some fun tricks? Are you hoping to better the trust between you and your horse by teaching them how to act in difficult or scary situations? In this training we can focus on how your horse learns, and if you want you can do all the training steps yourself no matter what your goals are, as I’m there to guide and help you.

For horses of all ages and skill levels, all the way to Grand Prix exercises. I am too tall to ride small ponies, but other than that the size doesn’t matter either. Both one time correctional riding as well as long term and goal oriented training.

Riding always includes groundwork as well with no added expenses.

For horses of all skill levels, for example basic training for young foals, preparing for riding, lunging.

Is your horse scared of loud noises, flying plastic or water puddles? Could their confidence and therefore safety in traffic be improved upon? Does trailer loading always take hours of your time? Are there issues with tacking up or is handwalking always a battle? Will your horse not stand still while you are trying to get on?

Not to worry, I can help. There are solutions for these and many other issues that can make your day to day life more stressful than it has to be. This training works best if I can work together with the people who handle the horse daily to prevent the problems coming back.
