Clinic B 8. Mai bis 10. Mai 2010 in 27389 Fintel
Experience the founder of the School of Légèreté, School of Lightness to learn more about this riding philosophy. On May 5th-10th 2010, Philippe Karl will be visiting Fintel in Northern Germany again for two 3-day advanced training courses for the licensed instructors of the School of Légèreté.
About Légèreté
The founding principle of the School of Légèreté is the absolute respect of the horse. Légèreté (French: lightness) is the philosophy of bringing together clear, effective and measurable equestrian concepts.
The philosophy of Légèreté excludes any use of force or coercive artificial aids (including side reins, draw reins, tightly closed nosebands etc.), but includes all types of horse and takes an interest in all equestrian disciplines. It provides an understandable and reliable training plan with clear principles, efficient methods and procedures that fully respect the nature of the horse.
The School of Légèreté takes its inspiration from the masters who have contributed to this equestrian philosophy like Xenophon, La Guérinière, Baucher etc. It is based on in-depth knowledge of the horse and is ready to re-analyse and improve itself with all types of progress in this respect (anatomy, physiology, locomotion, balance, psychology, ethology).
Lastly it has the aim of getting the best from any horse and fulfilling the rider through the constant search for efficiency via the minimum use of means.
