Horse in training

Sending a horse in training is a big decision and requires the right match for the horse, trainer and the owner. I hope to give you an insight to the process on this page and I'll always set up a call or a visit with you before we make an agreement about working together to get to know you and your horse and to talk about goals and expectations for our time together.

My values as your trainer

My most important job as a trainer is to be able to help you and your horse to improve together. I'll always involve you in your horse's training and it's my number one goal, that you feel in control and confident about continuing the work with your horse AFTER our training program ends.

The welfare and the well-being of the horse is always going to be my priority and this is one of my values that are unshakable. My training methods are based on a holistic view and include groundwork, riding, training in different environments and working with a team of experts who can help us with any issues we might encounter on the way. I have a great group consisting of a Veterinarian, an Equine Body Worker, an Equine Dentist, a Farrier and an Equine Nutritionist who support me with their passion and experience.

I also put a lot of effort into finding the right plan for you and your horse. This includes setting the right goals, that fit both you and your horse equally. I can help with finding the right horse show schedule, the disciplines that fits you best, new methods to get back into the saddle or succeed with something that's a struggle right now. When you send your horse to training with me, you get full support with exactly what you need.

How does it work?

LONG-TERM TRAINING (2 MONTHS+)

All horses are trained 5 times a week and have a good variation in their training
The horses go on a pasture/paddock every day 10-12 hours a day. Training horses normally don't get to share a pasture with the horses who live on the farm permanently, but they always have to possibility to get a buddy to live the best possible horse life
All horses are fed with Nordic Horse products and get a personalized feeding plan at arrival
Your training period will include lessons, so we're sure, that both your horse and you're learning and that you're 100% confident about how to continue after our training period ends
While in training, you'll be able to follow your horse through Mosson app. I use this app to track progress in training, add appointments and notes on the horse. On the days when we don't meet in person, you can sit at home and read what your horse did on the given day.
I almost always include some form of theory to help you understand the key points we are working on
You'll have the possibility to attend my events, purchase extra lessons and coaching sessions at a discounted price during your training period
All practicalities (pasture, feeding, lessons, treatments) are agreed with the owner before arrival

Prices for a month start at 7000 DKK / 930 EUR with training and full board included. I offer a discount for 3 months and longer contracts.

The opportunities are endless and each training program is unique. After our first meeting/call, I'll put together a package that works best for you for the best possible outcome.

SHORT-TERM TRAINING (1 WEEK+)

All the practicalities around the care of your horse are the same, as mentioned above. Your horse will go on his own pasture about 10 hours a day and will have his own oversized stall.
Feed is not included in short-term stays, so we don't create digestive problems with changing up too much.
You can book me on a week basis, so these stays are perfect for your young horse to learn some basics or to get some more experience. It's also a great solution, if you're on holidays and you don't want your horse to stand still. I also have riders sending their horses to me a few weeks before a show to get ready and to join our team at the show. A short-term training stay is also a great option if you have a specific problem you'd like help to solve, but you need more, than a few lessons.

Prices are individual, based on how many days of training and boarding you need.

I've made a price example for a week including one lesson: Arrival on Sunday. Short session at arrival to discuss the plan and see where we are. Training by Dora Monday - Friday and a lesson with the owner on Saturday. Departure on Saturday.

Price for one week, 5 training sessions, 1 short session at arrival and one lesson before departure incl. boarding for 5 nights: 2900 kr.

I'd be happy to find a solution that fits you! Don't hesitate to contact me, I'm always available for a talk about your horse and to calculate a price for you before you make a decision.
