In imparting the skill of communication I enable you to have a lifelong relationship with your horse. Horse Freestyle is not a quick fix. It is the intention to enable others to also have an extraordinary experience through learning to understand horses.
Communication
We strive first of all to understand and then to be understood. We believe that in studying horses with focused intention it leads us to a deeper understanding of not only horses but, of ourselves. In exploring horses as creation in its finest form, we also learn to appreciate our own inner beauty, strength and life. We believe as we as humans grow closer to horses and nature we also grow closer to ourselves.
" Anything forced and misunderstood can never be beautiful. And to quote the words of Simon: If a dancer was forced to dance by whip and spikes, he would be no more beautiful than a horse trained under similar conditions. " - Xenophon, 400 B.C.
