  • Interview with Carla Bauchmueller

Holding her Master's Degree in Economics in hand, 29 years ago, Carla decided to go back to her childhood dream of working with horses and riders. She's had countless hours in riding horses and training students since, and thousands of hours studying firsthand in world renowned programs such as Sally Swift’s Centered Riding® and The Classical German Training System.

She is a certified meditation and yoga practitioner, leading and facilitating worldwide. This unique combination and expertise led her to create The Intuitive Rider. In in-person and online programs, she helps riders from all over the world to be more balanced, safer and more connected in the saddle, and also deeply work on the emotional and mental side of being a horse person.

  • Interview with Stella James
    In this Episode I'll be interviewing Riding Coach, Stella James.
    Stella is passionate about horses, with over forty years experience and is a qualified instructor and stable manager with the British Horse Society. She has also owned and run her own riding school and livery yard. She takes an active interest in researching and learning about different holistic approaches in the horse industry in order to increase her knowledge and understanding of the best ways to keep her horses healthy and to improve her interactions with them. She has a keen interest in both classical dressage and natural horsemanship and loves how their principles and philosophies share similarities and often dovetail together. As a fully qualified Equine Bowen Therapist and a Bowen Technique Therapist (with over 15 years experience) she is able to treat both horse and rider. Her own experience, and qualification in Huna, NLP & Hypnosis for nearly 20 years, means she is able to deal with any psychological issues which may arise in relation to riding and/or performance goals such as fear, lack of confidence and anxiety, or equestrian bullying. In recent years, it was only once she began her own yoga practice that she realized that the principles of yoga were very compatible with riding and it could help riders improve their core strength and stamina, flexibility, balance and breathing as well as coordination. Keen to learn more, she studied for a number of years whilst at the same time improving her own practice and subsequently qualifying as a Yoga Teacher. Following on from there, she undertook further study and qualified as a Yoga Sports Coach.

    • Giving up Control

      In this episode we are going to be talking about the power of giving up your need to control everything both with your horse and in your life. In life and with horses we will encounter many things that we can’t control. You have the choice to try to fight them or to fear them, or you can let go and trust in yourself and in your horse to get you through.

    About Lessons from a Horse

    From the publisher's feed

    If you've spent any length of time around horses you may have realized that horses have just as much, if not more to teach us, as we have to teach them. And many of those lessons go beyond our horse…
