"Give your horse positive feedback so that he can be proud of his work. It is important that he feels comfortable and enjoys working with us."
Dorothee Schneider
DOROTHEE SCHNEIDER
Until the end of 2022, Corinna and Robinson as a rider at the St. Stephan stud farm by ReitmeisterinDorothee Schneider(current Olympic team champion, world team champion and European vice-champion in individual events).
We find your sensitive and precise way of riding and training horses gently in the spirit of classical riding to be absolutely admirable and exemplary. For you, horses are partners whose well-being and motivation are always at the forefront of your daily work.
Benefiting from her incomparable training philosophy every day in order to get a little better ourselves every day was something very special for us. We are very happy and grateful for the educational time with such a unique trainer and personality!
"The horse’s greatest enemy is the rider’s impatience"
Klaus Balkenhol
KLAUS BALKENHOL
At the beginning of 2019, Robinson met the Balkenhol family at the K&K Cup in Münster and was given the opportunity to train there permanently. Anabel and Klaus Balkenhol, both Olympic champions and internationally recognized instructors of classical riding, are impressive personalities and true horse people. Their calmness and fairness in dealing with the horses, coupled with consistent, horse-friendly training, impressively shows how important relaxedness and correct self-carriage are - principles that we apply every day.
"A loose and relaxed horse is the basis for good dressage work. Only when the horse can stretch and let go is it ready for collection. It is much easier to collect a horse when it is already stretched and loose, because then a light sit and a little push is enough to collect it."
Hubertus Schmidt
HUBERTUS SCHMIDT
From 2007 to 2012, Robinson had the great honor of being able to train regularly in Hubertus Schmidt's stables. Hubertus Schmidt, Olympic team champion as well as world and European champion, impresses with his delicate, sensitive and always fair work with the horses. His calm, sensitive manner and his impressive ability to train horses with patience and ease have had a lasting impact on Robinson. He still benefits today from the valuable tips and inspiring work of such an outstanding horse person.
