Heart 2 Horse

Welcome to my page! I teach dressage lessons and groundwork lessons. My passion is to connect people and horses. I make people aware of horse language, and I teach them to send the right signals to strengthen the connection with their horses. While riding, I ensure clear and gentle communication, which keeps the horse open to learn and cooperate. To enrich my dressage lessons, I also specialized in the Centered Riding method. This greatly improves harmony while riding. Both on the ground and while riding, I am all about cooperation, harmony and balance.

happy rider, happy horse
Lucie is knowledgeable, driven, helpful and enthusiastic. She teaches me how to understand the body language of my horse better and how my own body language influences our communication. I notice that I can handle difficult situations with ‘undesirable’ behavior faster and better, in a horse-friendly way. In addition, Lucie gives riding- and groundwork lessons with a lot of enthusiasm. Her lessons are stimulating and fun, and helped me and my horse grow in a short period of time. I’m very grateful for Lucie’s help, without her, Harold and I wouldn’t have gotten this far!

Before I met Lucie, I was pretty stuck with my 17-year-old horse. Lucie just struck the right chord with us to achieve our goals and has a lot of patience. Every week, I saw an upward development, and my horse started participating and became active again. In addition, I also learn a lot from her as an instructor (especially about my posture and sitting on the horse, riding while supporting the horse in the correct way with perseverance and giving clear signals). I can always count on her. In short: I highly recommend Lucie if you are looking for someone to make progress with your horse in a friendly and respectful way.

Lucie is amazing. Since I’ve started taking lessons from her, my horse and I have made such great strides forward, beyond my wildest dreams. Her way of teaching is full of passion and dedication, and it is contagious. With her professional eye, she looks at what the rider as well as the horse can handle and handles this fantastically. I’ll never look for another instructor again!

“My mission is to constantly challenge myself to get closer to the essence of ‘being’ with horses. I strive to let my clients experience the connection from ‘heart to heart’ with their horse.”
