Passion and expertise at the service of your relationship with the horse
I’ve had a strong connection with horses and the natural world since I was a child. I became an equine behaviorist and ethological riding instructor, trained in a variety of approaches, including the Parelli Method.
I’ve been helping both individuals and professionals develop an effective and balanced partnership with their horses for many years.
With a rich career in polocrosse and TREC competitions, as well as expertise in shiatsu and equine podiatry, I offer you an in-depth knowledge of horses and their behavior. I firmly believe that every interaction with a horse is an opportunity to build a strong partnership, where everyone plays their part with commitment and respect.
My journey
“A trained Parelli instructor, I am also an ATE (Equestrian Tourism Guide) and an Ethological Riding Instructor.
I hold degrees from the Sorbonne, York, and Sussex Universities in Political and Social Thought and Contemporary History. I am also an equine Shiatsu practitioner trained by the ESE (School of Equine Shiatsu in France) and an equine podiatrist, a graduate of the Institute of Applied Equine Podiatry, founded by Keith Charles Lapierre in the United States.
A coach and polocrosse player since 2005, I successfully competed in two World Cups for France in 2007 and 2011. I have competed nationally in TREC and Horseball for many years, as well as recreational driving, horseback archery, and many other equestrian activities, including trail riding. I am passionate about personal development.
I undertake each new relational according to Pat Parelli’s phrase: “Engage a relational to build a partnership”.
Every relationship is
about mutual trust
