Hi everyone,

We still have places with horse for our course on coming Sunday/Monday (22-23.5.), lunging and groundwork, with Stephanie Birkeland, a student of Bent Branderup and Marius Schneider. Stajnia Olender: https://www.facebook.com/events/938970402891235/

There will be translation into Polish 😉

I met Stephanie last year during my time as a working student for Bent Branderup, and I immediately liked her way of working with horses. She has helped me very much with my own, very sensitive horse. She has agreed to come to Olender 2-3 times a year to help us build up a group of people that is interested in working horses the classical way, the way of the old masters. The method is called "Academic Art of Riding". Not very well known in Poland yet, but very popular in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Netherlands, Austria, and Belgium (maybe you have heard of Christofer Dahlgren, Jossy Reynvoet, Marius Schneider, or Monika Sanders, all students of Bent Branderup).

The cost of the course is 500pln for participants with horse per day, 1000pln for whole course. Box at Olender is 60pln per night. Listeners are still welcome, 130pln per day. Registration: biolik108@me.com, tel. 606311108.

Stajnia Olender is situated 30km north of Warszawa (ul. Promienna 11, Sady, Gmina Czosnow).

We are already a small group of people who are interested in training horses the classical way. Come and have a look, you will find relaxed people and horses!

(The method is also made more popular now by Marijke de Jong, who calls it "Straightness Training"😉

I really very much recommend this way of working with horses, a logical system of gymnastic exercises based on hundreds of years of experience and modern pedagogics 🙂 The change in my own horses is really remarkable, both physically and mentally.


Hope to see you there 😉

P.S.: We also have a course with Marius Schneider at Olender, on 2-3.07.2016: https://www.facebook.com/events/811883062280953/
