Retabout

In the middle of France on 60 Acres lived a beautiful herd of Arabians. I was lucky enough Lucia let me work with them. They were all handled, but never ridden, and some had only been haltered and trimmed. But none of these horses had a bad experience with humans, and after so much trauma I saw in Holland, this was just amazing.  In the short time I had, I taught them to trust me on their back and walk a little bit. With their permission, without stress, bitless and with a bareback pad. Just how I would do it with my own horses. Padmo the leader of the herd became a friend, and I loved spending time with them together in the valley. I took one of my students with me and Nikki de Kerf, an amazing photographer. The result of that you can see in these beautiful photos!
