I went a long way until I finally found to this way of riding, that I now practice, teach and continously refine full of joy since years. I love to school each of my horses step by step according to the logic principles of classic Légèreté (lightness) and in unity with his natural movements which make progress so easily accessible to horse and rider.
I enjoy to ride an eager horse, to exert bodily less but to concentrate my mind and awareness instead on fineness in my own body same as in the body of my horse. This can exert too and still I am fascinated by discovering further refinements, by optimizing and stabilizing obtained progress.

Especially I enjoy to teach these principles to other riders and be rewarded by their quick progress and success together with the new joy of their horses expressed in composed, proud and light movements when ridden this way. I aim to enable these riders to fuse with their horse and his movements until they feel like floating on clouds and at the same time being filled by an indescribable wave of joy.
