My approach to horse riding focuses on horse-friendly riding and combines elements of the Irwin Insights method (relaxation & harmony), Centered Riding (posture & seat), Antoine de Bodt (straightening) and classical dressage.

I adapt my dressage training to the unique combination of rider and horse. Depending on the needs, the focus can be on improving the rider's posture & seat, tackling mental challenges or strengthening the physical and emotional wellbeing of the horse. My goal is to create an environment where both rider and horse feel comfortable and supported, using methods that promote harmony and relaxation.

I use the ’scala der ausbildung’, the worldwide step-by-step plan for training horses. I pay attention to all signals from the horse, from swishing tail to grinding teeth. In my lessons there is no pulling on the mouth and no fighting with the horse. Both horse and rider are supposed enjoy the lesson, I am realistic and look at what is feasible during each lesson. The ultimate goal of my lessons is a rider and horse in balance, with the lightest possible aids. I first focus on very good basic work, and once this is mastered I move on to all exercises up to Z1 level.
