Holistic Horse–Human School
Learning with Horses – Riding as One Part of a Greater Whole
Our Horse–Human School offers a comprehensive, non-therapeutic education with horses.
The focus is on understanding, responsibility, and respectful interaction between humans and horses.
Riding is an important element of our work —
but it is not the sole focus and not taught in isolation.
What We Mean by Horse–Human School
This is not a classical riding school focused purely on technique or performance.
We understand learning with horses as a holistic educational process that includes:
- Learning how horses perceive and communicate
- Understanding horse behavior, needs, and boundaries
- Developing responsibility, clarity, and consistency
- Groundwork, observation, and daily horse care
- Riding as a natural extension of relationship and readiness
The goal is to educate competent, respectful, and mindful horse people — not just riders.
Riding as Part of the Whole
In our Horse–Human School, riding grows out of:
- Trust and mutual respect
- Clear communication
- Physical and mental readiness of horse and human
We do not rush riding.
We introduce it when the foundations are in place.
Riding is not the starting point —
it is one expression of a well-developed relationship.
Clear Boundary: No Therapy
Our Horse–Human School is an educational and recreational offering.
- It is not therapy
- It does not replace medical, psychological, or psychotherapeutic treatment
- It is not intended for therapeutic indications
Participants looking for therapeutic support with horses are asked to book equine-assisted therapy sessions separately, you can find our therapeutic program here.
This clear separation ensures transparency, safety, and appropriate expectations for everyone involved.
