The horse’s role in human civilization is complex and unmistakable.
Although we in the developed world no longer require equine labor,
our love of horsemanship shows remarkable resilience. The
transformation of the human relationship with horses has precedents
with domestic animals, once practical contributors to the household but
today little more than personal accessories. In recent years it has become
common for frustrated or overwrought owners to jettison unwanted pets in pounds, where, companionless and rejected, they often take their last,
lonely breath. Much the same is happening with horses, which are
neglected and abandoned in similar ways. If our experience with
domestic animals is any indication of where we are heading (or where
we might already be), it is imperative that we take a hard look at the
nature of our connection with the equine species.

At Windhorse International, we are creating a space where the interdependence of horse and human is acknowledged and appreciated. Boarding, core training, and breeding, when pursued mindfully, can be of mutual benefit to man and animal. If purposeful attention is given to
process as well as result, opportunities arise for mutual respect and appreciation. The reinvigoration of the equine/human connection depends
on clarity and self-awareness, and we offer physical and mental training to nurture these qualities in both animal and person. Please contact us
about our services or to join the discussion about how the relationship
between horses and humans can be cultivated for our common
enlightenment.
