Found the course superb and very instructive.

Mireille den HoedRevalidation and dressage trainer

The course Equine Sports Physiology has made me aware of some pitfalls and misconceptions in horse training. It has made training with a heart rate monitor into a daily practice, and that gives us a lot of useful information.

Jolien Koole

An interesting course that everyone that has to do with training horse should follow.

Marjan BroerPhysiotherapist

Marije KalshovenLecturer equine vocational education

I found it an enrichment in general knowledge of horses and training principles which is actually necessary for every equestrian! After this you should be more capable to lead and train your horse. With, as a result, a happy athlete who is able to peak at the right time. This knowledge is offered to you in a pleasant interactive way with a good and solid link between theory and daily practice.

Lilian Sim ZechaPhysiotherapist

Very educational and applicable in all disciplines and all levels. I was able to convert my humane knowledge to the concept of horse training.

Ruthi DammanPhysiotherapist

The course has taught me enough to make my own training programs and I’m now able to measure the results of the training programs by means of heart rate measurements. Also sufficient theoretical basis and pointers for further development and reading.

Marieke Brinks

Inspirational course with important information to teach you how to reach optimal performance in a horse. Useful lessons, with a clear translation to daily practice!

Zoë Pasman

I found it all very interesting. I sat on the edge of my seat the entire time! It has motivated me to want to learn much more about this. I found sad when the training was over. Very interesting and practical. In a clear but scientific way.

Very interesting and with a practical approach. Clear information but still explained with a good scientific background.
