About HHM
Aka the Holistic Horse Membership
Why the Holistic Horse?
The Holistic Horse was born out of a need for a community for compassionate horse owners who value kindness, education and personal growth.
It is not about pushing a particular method, but about bringing in insights and knowledge from a range of disciplines, professionals and experiences in a way that is truly cohesive and supportive.
More than that, it is a space where kindness is the guiding principle. Kindness to the horse, to ourselves and to each other.
The membership itself is primarily an educational space, but less of a “cult” and more of an open conversation. There is a tendency in the horse world to either get stuck in “echo chambers” (a state where we are either for or against something in a purely black and white way) or find ourselves completely lost and overwhelmed with all the conflicting ideas and opinions! The Holistic Horse is about finding the middle ground, where concepts and ideas are explored in an open and curious way. The idea is not to indoctrinate you, nor is it to confuse you. The idea is to share ideas and open up new possibilities without going down endless rabbit holes about very specific ideas and areas that seem never ending and all seem like the most important thing!
The membership is a place where you can learn from industry experts while being surrounded by a like-minded and like-hearted community!
The Facebook group is built around those values; kindness and curiosity. When you join the group, you agree to act in accordance to these values. Everyone in the group agrees to act and speak (type!) with kindness to the other members, but also themselves. We agree to be open minded and curious about different ways of doing things, even if they seem to contradict our own understanding. This is an integral part to the mission. The equestrian world is not known for it’s inclusiveity. It is known for conflicting ideas that are vehemently enforced and a tendency to tear down other riders in the name of “education”.
Within the membership you receive two live training calls per month, one live Q+A call per month, and access to the recordings of all previous calls. There’s also a vault of all online trainings I have ever run in the past… let’s just say there’s a lot there if you wish to explore, or if that’s too much you can simply enjoy the live calls! Plus of course the sense of community within the group.
