Make a better life for horses... ~𝑩𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒂 𝑩𝒐𝒍𝒔𝒆𝒏𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒆𝒌 Belinda rides dressage in a way that makes you stop and go: 'I want what she's got!'  The horses look happy, athletic, and light. She is poised, elegant, and clearly an effective rider with very subtle aids.  It's how dressage is supposed to be!  When I saw videos of Belinda riding (and hearing her chat with Manolo Mendez and Andrew Turnball), I just had to interview her on the podcast to hear more and share her horsemanship ethos with the world... Belinda Bolsenbroek is an international authority on the Art of Classical Equitation in which the historic relationship between horse and human is expressed as a spiritual connection between two beings.  Belinda harnesses the wisdom of the Old Masters, combines that wisdom with the science of biomechanics and shapes them both into a clear and defined practice that allows you to take your horsemanship to the next level. In this episode, we discuss: ⚜️ Belinda’s upbringing with horses from competitive riding on Dutch warmbloods, international competition, Olympic ambitions and her turning point towards classical dressage. ⚜️ Belinda’s healthy and holistic approach to training horses. ⚜️ The evolution of competitive dressage and why many classical riders don’t compete. ⚜️ How contact should feel when it is based on connection not force. ⚜️ Belinda’s interests in the thoracic sling, and nervous system of the horse. ⚜️ The importance of reflection and questioning in your horsemanship journey. ⚜️ Belinda’s viewpoint on contact with the reins and how it should feel.  ⚜️ Her interesting answer to the favourite horse purchase question! I think Belinda might be starting a new trend with this one! ⚜️ All the usual fun horsemanship breakthroughs questions. ⚜️ Plus so much more!

From as little as a cup of coffee a month, you can help me keep this podcast going. There are many tiers that you can choose from and if everyone who listens gave only $5 per month, it would make a massive positive difference to me.There is a tier in there for a small business subscription just like the one Peter Papp took up from Peter and the Herd, this is the one where your business gets a mention each week on the podcast. Peter works with equine behaviour and trauma recovery. Equine communication. Human and horse relationship building. Peter has had communication with my mare Gypsy, who is the mare with me in the podcast picture and he was spot on about everything so I can highly recommend his work personally. Click here to connect with Peter and the Herd.One of our small business subscribers for the podcast is the HeartHorse Box. HeartHorse was created by friends Tista and Charlotte who found a beautiful spot to place themselves in the horse world. They have created a safe online community environment outside the noisy world of social media where you can subscribe and dive in and speak openly with heart-minded conscious horse people of all disciplines and breeds. This includes live seminars and classes from equine experts from all areas of the equestrian world. They also have the beautiful HeartHorse Box Subscription, I do love this one as it is centred around you, the conscious horse person receiving nourishing gifts for you as HeartHorse understand that you are already taking amazing care of your horse and want to make sure you are doing the same for yourself.

You may even find the episode where I was a guest on their podcast talking about my life with horses and how this podcast and the conscious horse movement came about.In this episode I speak with Belinda Bolsenbroek. Belinda has been on my radar for a few years as she coaches locally and I have seen the calibre of people who have worked with her and swear by her training and have always wanted to know more.And let me tell you Belinda exceeded all of my high expectations of a wonderful interview. Belinda reminded me of so many things that I value about working with horses and these things can so easily be lost and forgotten in searching for the correct method or techniques.Belinda believes that if you are focusing on technique or methods without having looked into the horse’s eyes and connected with their soul, then your technique will not ever matter nor will it work to build true connection with your horse.This was such an enlightening conversation and such a pleasure. This is one that I personally will be going back over a few times to remind myself of the essence of working with horses.You can connect with Belinda with the following linksWebsite https://www.belindabolsenbroek.academy/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/belindabolsenbroek.academyInstagram https://www.instagram.com/belindabolsenbroekacademy/© Copyrighted
