Light Equitation Light EquitationBuilding Deeper Connections Between Riders and Horses I specialize in behavioral horse training that focuses on both groundwork and in-saddle techniques. My approach integrates modern, science-based methods with an emphasis on correct biomechanics and a deep understanding of equine behavior. This holistic method not only enhances communication between horse and rider but also ensures that the training is logical, clear, and easy for the horse to understand. In my work, I teach riders how to build a trusting and respectful partnership with their horses. My training sessions are designed to motivate the horse while ensuring it remains relaxed and engaged both mentally and emotionally. It’s important that the rider is aware of the challenges ahead and that they communicate openly about any concerns, allowing us to tailor the training plan accordingly. I also guide horse owners on how to ensure their horse’s well-being, covering topics such as safe transportation, proper equipment selection, and basic health care. In my experience, I often encounter horses labeled as 'difficult’ or 'dangerous.’ These are usually misunderstood animals, often trained in ways that don’t align with their mental or physical predispositions. My goal is to chart a new path for both horse and rider, helping them form a harmonious and effective partnership. During training, I work closely with horse-rider pairs to ensure that all movements are in line with proper biomechanics, whether on the ground or in the saddle. This approach helps build not only the horse’s physical condition but also its mental well-being. I believe that the key to success is a balanced and responsible partnership between rider and horse, based on mutual trust and understanding. Ola Najman fot. Cecylia Łęszczak
