Basic steps how to guide a horse from stress to calmness. (Matthias Geysen)

These images show step by step how I make contact with a horse. In the beginning of the movie you see me riding Maya in the condition that she was brought to me: stressed, mistrusting the environment, showing the urge to flee from any dangers. A normal pace is difficult to achieve and there is no way I can keep her still for a moment. Normally I would never ride a horse in this condition. These images are only made to show you the state she was in before I started to work with her. Maya’s history is that she was bred to become a jumper, but due to her sensitive character and the inappropriate treatment for this type of horse she had many negative experiences that made her lose her calm and her trust in human beings. She was conditioned to think that every human approach meant that something was expected from her. She had developed an extreme consciousness that noticed the slightest signal and even enlarged it. The problem is now the man who sends too many signals to the horse without actually realising it. One can say that the cause of the problem is constantly nourished unconsciously, which always creates new conflicts. In order to deal with Maya’s fears and nervousness towards us, I had to start from scratch. She is now allowed to experience all the steps that were skipped in her first training, regaining her trust, in herself and human beings. Now she can discover the world with a fresh pair of eyes, explore and enjoy it together with man.
