Three Years Among Wild Horses

Hola Everyone

Some experiences transform you forever. I spent three years living alongside herds of wild horses in the mountains of A Groba.

I wasn't there to tame them.

I was there to listen.

To observe them without interference.

To silently understand their world: their body language, their social choices, their natural movement, and their lifestyle.

During that time, I learned more about equine behavior than in all my formal studies.

I discovered the true meaning of leadership without force, of group cohesion without rigid hierarchies, of communication without words.

I learned that respect isn't demanded, it's earned. And that true understanding of horses begins with humility.

Today, I apply this profound and transformative experience to my work as a trainer, educator, and advisor.

Understanding the horse through its natural instincts is the foundation of any respectful and effective training. If you're looking to learn from this approach, you've come to the right place.

This image captures one of those moments of connection. Without ropes. No halters. No fear.
