I highly recommend this course for any experienced or amateur rider, and even for people wishing to discover horses. I would have liked to have been taught this smaller approach, today I see things differently thanks to ethology applied to horse riding. Thank you for this experience and for the quality of this internship

Great course. Method to discover absolutely for horse enthusiasts, riders or not. A more coherent approach that combines with the rest of our habits to transform our relationship with the horse. Expect to want to do the next course!

I found the internship very enriching. It was a good learning experience to dissect the horse's approach and to think about how to communicate. Before, I focused on the voice but the course taught me to be aware of body language and use it in my interactions with horses. The course made me want to do a set-up course to progress with the same method.

The course was very balanced, a good mix of theory and practice.
Chloé is gentle, educational and always very constructive in her comments. We immediately felt confident and progress with my horse who did not respect my personal space was seen within 24 hours.
Thanks for all.

I learned a lot during this course, especially since I had the chance to participate with my mare. This allowed me to correct my bad reflexes and progress in the education of my mare.

A good ratio between theory and practice, clear explanations, a friendly facilitator who answers everything.
You learn a lot about horses and you have a solid foundation after this course to explore or resolve certain problems with your horse.
It was very interesting ! I recommend the Haras de la Cense.
