About
our journey to HorseDream
Karin and I had been self-employed since 1983
in the IT-world, working around the clock. In 1989 we decided to go on a
riding holiday. I was nearly 40 years old, when I climbed a horse for the
first time, and since then, I have not looked back.
We bought our
first horse three months later and then the second one. We went through the
so called normal German riding education for one year and eventually left
this scene because of the treatment of the horses. We continued learning on
our own for the next two years.
We read Linda Tellington-Jones, Sally Swift and
in 1993 Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling's „Dancing with Horses“. This book was the
key to everything that happened afterwards. We bought two more horses (for
our children) and learned more.
The priorities in our daily life had completely
changed. Our IT-business- customers were interested in what we did with the
horses, too, and instead of inviting them for dinner, we invited them to the
horses.
At the end of 1995 one of our employees
suffered from stress hormons and wanted to leave the company. We offered her
a six months sabbatical, but asked her to come with us to the horses once a
week. She agreed, worked with us once a week, without a concrete concept,
and three months later she felt fine again to get back into IT-business.
This experience was the reason to develop a horse assisted program for
corporates.
We started with test seminars with our business
friends and their families and went to open market in the beginning of 1998.
From the very first beginning we did nearly everything on our
own - with the help of lots of books and with the help of the horses. We did not visit any of the established horse
people, not Parelli, not Roberts, not Hempfling (after years of practice we
met him twice at his workshops in Denmark, where he collaborated with our
partners in Roskilde).
The name of our educational product HorseDream
stands for two facets of leadership, management, and personal development:
The Horse is a very present being, very real,
living always in the here and now. That makes people, working with horses in
Horse Assisted Seminars, learn about 100 % presence, responsibility, self
confidence, awareness, and all that is necessary to develop leadership
skills.
But the Horse, with its historical and mystical
background, is also a Dream. It opens horizons, changes belief systems,
empowers people to step out of the box.
So HorseDream means exactly what is needed in
modern business life: reality and vision – both concepts are incorporated in
this name. Today we and our partners live this dream: to establish Horse
Assisted Education as a normal way of further education in companies,
organizations and for personal purposes.
