Are you looking for a relaxing activity, which positively contributes to your personal development at the same time? Humans and horses can learn from each other in both groundwork and riding. Cooperation and building a relation with such powerful beings like horses is based on trust, leadership and communication. While we are working with horses, we can further develop our leadership and communication skills. For natural communication with horses body language and relaxation are essential. At a higher level horses appeal to our intuition, natural power and mindfulness. Awareness of all processes happening, while being in contact with ourselves, the horses and environment, gives us opportunities to play with the available life-energy and space. Horses have the power to mirror our intentions, behavior and emotions. Working with horses in a state of awareness might bring us closer to our authentic self. This may evolve into healing experiences or processes for all of us (not in the least for horses or people with psychological problems).

Let’s start this journey together with the horses!


Your day will start with a healthy breakfast and then we will spend the morning with a workshop on communication or natural riding with horses. The workshops* consist of experience-based exercises for both groundwork and riding with horses. The first two hours we will be working out the exercises without horses. After a short break, the next two hours will be spent further exploring the exercises and our experiences with the horses. During your stay on safari, you will cover such subjects as the quality of behavior or communication, being in the now and energy flows. Exercises for grounding and moving from your centre and together with the horse, with direction and space are major topics in the workshops for natural communication with horses. We will learn about our own intentions and attention. We will explore what is the effect of steering or leading a horse. Body balance and relaxation on the horseback will be improved.

After lunch and a well deserved rest, you’ll be taken out on the horses to explore the wilderness from horseback. The exercises and experiences from the morning workshops may be further practiced, explored and developed during the horse riding safaris. Even after the Spiritual Horse Safari holidays have ended, the exercises and experiences will prove to be valuable in our contact and communication with both horses and humans in daily life.


*Experience with horses or horse riding is not required for participation in the workshops.
