Private lessons tailored to your specific needs (for children and adults, beginners and advanced)
We are dedicated to working with horses. Ever since childhood days, we have been fascinated by horses. A horse’s sensitivity and honesty are hard to comprehend. Literature on the subject often describes the incredible harmony between horse and rider, but not how to get to that stage. Further training is an absolute must for every horse lover.
Horses expect clear behaviour, honesty, patience, endurance and fairness from us. Ethical principles state that "People who go in for sport with horses must ensure that both they themselves and the horse entrusted to them undergo training. The aim of such training is achieving the greatest possible harmony between the rider and horse".
With us at the Pilsachhof you can learn how to treat horses in general, live together with them and ride in harmony. An in-depth knowledge of handling horses will also help you to manage difficult situations resolutely and consistently in your everyday life. Horses accept everyone at face value, regardless of who or what they are, judging the person alone. They can therefore teach us a lot about life in many areas.
Riding our five good-natured and well-schooled horses will help you to revitalise and get to know yourself better.
