About me
Briefly...
Everything started when I was 6 and persuaded my parents that I wanted to ride horses. It took some time, but I did eventually convince them.
There the journey began.
It started as an afterschool hobby, but overtime it grew into much more, such as my university subject. Horses follow me everywhere and vice versa, I’d follow them anywhere.
Trainer, rider, manual therapist, osteopath, aspiring equine scientist, enthusiast… I am many things, but most importantly I am a lifetime student.
I like to share my journey and everything I have learned so far on my Patreon page. If you want to support me and learn something new every now and then, visit my page on Patreon!
My philosophy:
I believe in interdisciplinary work, forming connections and co-working between professionals, owners and riders.
History, education, science and love are in my opinion things we need to act reasonably, calmly and how our horses deserve it, with respect.
Connecting different fields and views on a variety of equestrian topics brings me a lot of joy and now I would also like to share it with you all.
Enjoy the ride with me!
