Feel free to have a look around, to find out more about my way of working with horses, my background as a horse trainer and my contact details and services.
I offer horse boarding spots at my location in Almere, NL - for permanent boarding clients or long-term training horses.
Horse Training
I specialise in starting young horses under saddle and helping horses with trauma to find trust and fun in working with their owners.
Clipping Service
Throughout the year you can book me to clip your horse as prepartion for work in winter or for any health related reasons.
Lessons with your horse
I offer lessons for horse owners, specialized in groundwork, double lunging, desensitization, resensitization and how to improve your partnership with your horse.
My philosophy
"Trust the process, and focus more on the trust rather than the process! Once the foundation of trust is built, the process will come all by itself". The past years, I was privileged to work with many different horses. My observation over and over proved, that nothing is more important than trust. I barely ever experience the problems that horse owners decribe, as I actively listen to the horses micro signals and act before there is a need for the horse to explode.
I'm originally from Berlin, DE, and moved to the Netherlands in 2019 with the goal of exploring all facettes of life! Magically I ended up exactly where I always dreamed to be: Surrounded by nature and animals! Incredibly enough I was privileged to get to work with many privately owned horses, and also worked at a jumping horse breeding, selling and training stable for roughly a year, which taught me a lot of alternative methods on starting young horses under saddle! What a journey, and it has just started..

Ana is begonnen met mijn 4 jarige merrie Mirza om haar zadelmak te maken. Ik had nogal wat wensen, bitloos, rustig tempo zodat ze goed uit kon groeien en vooral een positieve benadering. Mijn merrie is nu 6 jaar, is volkomen zadelmak, bitloos nog steeds en ziet door de training van Ana het rijden als iets leuks. Ana luisterde goed naar mij maar kijkt vooral goed naar wat het paard aankan. Mijn paard heeft hierdoor de perfecte training gehad en een goede basis voor de rest van haar leven.

Ana is fantastisch met alle paarden. Ze weet al snel wat jouw paard nodig heeft en past haar training volledig aan , aan de behoefte van het paard. Of het nu een jong paard is die nog helemaal fris onder het zadel is of het helpen trainen van jou samen met je paard, Ana doet met het met veel geduld en respect voor ruiter en paard.

FAQs
Can I visit your location?
This is possible per appointment! Please always arrange an appointment with me first, as the property is private and shared!
Do you speak Dutch?
Ik versta nederlands en kan wel in het nederlands communiceren, maar het gaat op dit moment sneller (en foutloos) in het Engels! Het is helemaal geen probleem als je nederlands tegen mij spreek! Dit doe ik met de meeste klanten! :)
Do you offer lessons on your own horses?
Generally I don't offer lessons on my own horses. Only in very special occasions my own horses help training horses or owners that are on my location with specific problems (mainly trauma and insecurities).
How long is your waiting list?
During low season (autumn, winter) I usually have spots available at my own location all 1-3 months. In summer, the waiting list is usually slightly longer. For training on location, waiting times vary per month. Best is to contact me to ask about the current waiting times!
