According to Wikipedia, the first taming of a horse could go back to the end of the Upper Paleolithic, that is to say 8000 years before Jesus Christ. The first archaeological evidence of domestication of a horse dates back to 3,500 BC, in the steppes of northern Kazakhstan.
For me, whatever the species, when the human being speaks of domestication; he speaks of SUBMISSION TO THE HUMAN BEING ...
Human beings still have this need to dominate, even over their own kind. So, what I decided to present to humans and horses, through this project that I will call: "THE CREATION OF THE NEW FOAL AND THE NEW HORSE"; is a whole new concept that you won't find in any equestrian book ... I offer you, through my new concept, an opportunity to get in touch and in relation with the horse.
This approach is going to be something completely new for the traditional equestrian world, an approach which can even be disturbing - even very disturbing - and even diametrically opposed to what is taught in the traditional equestrian world to this day.
My goal with this project is not to show the other – i.e., the traditional equestrian world - that they are not doing it “RIGHT"; but to bring "TO MAN AND HORSE, A COMPLEMENTARITY TO THE EXISTING EQUESTRIAN WORLD"!
This means concretely that, for those who decide - or who make the choice - to REALLY get out of their comfort zone and their traditional framework; that I bring them easy, gentle, and powerful tools to enrich the relationship between horse-rider, horse-owner, horse-human being.
As in everything I do in life, at all levels, I always respect "FREE WILL, BE IT TOWARDS HUMAN BEING AND ALSO TOWARDS ANIMALS". So, the one who decides - for the choice which is his - to remain "IN HIS FRAME OF PERCEPTION OF REALITY"; I will always respect his choice. But, I will also always make him aware of the responsibility for his choice.
The "MAN-HORSE" relation is for me a "SACRED, DIVINE" relation which carries with it a gigantic opportunity to enrich the human being very strongly in HIS BEING.
And so, I developed this project to implement this new man-horse philosophy in the current structures.
Those who, to this day, have "ventured" into my teachings; were able to see and were "mesmerized" by the gentleness, the respect, the love, and the effectiveness of my teachings. And it is for them that I invest myself, and of course also for all the horses, to offer them this enrichment.
What always makes me smile during those teachings is that even the most motivated pupils still manage to exclaim: "but it is incredible what I have just seen, and yet, I see that it has actually really and truly happened... "
It shows me that even the most motivated human, even when he sees it with his own eyes - and it goes out of his comfort zone - that he can't immediately believe it ...
So be very aware that I AM NOT HERE TO PROVE SOMETHING TO YOU, NOR TO CONVINCE YOU OF SOMETHING. I AM JUST HERE TO OFFER YOU A MAGNIFICENT OPPORTUNITY, A MAGNIFICENT GIFT, TO HELP YOU GROW THROUGH THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE HORSE.
I wish you a beautiful discovery, and a beautiful journey in this wonderful world ... and very probably unknown to you...
From the bottom of my heart,
