Learning with Horses


Animals communicate in ways similar to humans, they use body language.
To understand but also to "speak" this language is the main content of this new seminars that I initiated for 2008.

Since my childhood, horses and riding have been my passion. Since the age of 4, when I first sat on a horse, I have been unable to kick this addiction.

Today I own 3 horses, am an active dressage rider, and educate both people and horses for dressage tournaments.
Now I aim to combine this experience and passion with my work as a Business Trainer.
