For many years we've been offering our popular course for Equine Assisted Coaches and Trainers in Austria. After all this time and with all the experiences we have gained, we have designed an online course for you: location independency, free time management and with everything you need to get started.
There is always something happening at Mareike Ahrend's farm. On her "horse bridge" everything revolves around coaching, training and meaningful encounters between people and animals. But for some horse lovers, the farm as a training location in Wernersdorf, Austria is too far away.
We therefore asked ourselves how we could make Mareike's Horse Assisted Training & Coaching course accessible to as many people as possible who are looking for high-quality, hands-on training for their hearts and minds and who want to fulfill their dream of working with horses.
The result? A colourful online course that brings the feeling and learning experience of live training to your living room.
