Courses on the ground
I like the possibility of modern Teknik! I am now collecting material for these TEMA courses.
When you attending  the course below, you will get an introduction to the content and practical examples of the classes. You can come here with your horse  or borrow a school horse from the farm to work in praxis.
 You can also make it online via zoom or video from your home stable. Just perfect design for timesaving and the benefit of your horse! Less stress with everything!
​Here you will find the courses from the Ground to compose your education well! Warmly welcome:
