Holiday is over 🌟 Back to learning, growing, and sharing!

What does it mean to be an NCSAH Instructor of and ?

The 12 Commandments of the NCSAH Instructor reflect the knowledge, skills, and mindset developed during the program.

They are more than just guidelines, they represent a way of teaching that contributes to the well-being, joy, and positive development of both horse and rider. 🐴✨

As instructors, we carry these values into every lesson and training, creating an environment of:
📚 Knowledge
🤝 Connection
💫 Growth

Because true horsemanship isn’t only about technique, it’s about guiding both horse and human towards balance, trust, and harmony.

✨ Growth never stops ✨

A few months ago, I started the Dressage on Equal Terms program of NCSAH at with . What. An. Eye-opener 🫶🏻

At Raio de Luz Stables, I work with horses every day, but this course brings so many new insights into training, communication, and teaching.

📚 Seeing differently
🐴 Listening better
🧠 Understanding deeper

Everything I’m learning is already influencing my daily work with the horses.

And in the future… I hope to guide riders too, in a way that truly fits both horse and human.

Learning, feeling, applying. Every single day.
With lightness, trust, and love for the horses 🤍

Yesterday was a great day of learning ❤️
Gained some new insights again.
Biomechanics so important we as riders know how the body of our horse works ✅

Biomechanica in beweging – letterlijk! 🐎💡

Wat een waardevolle dag op DRDC, waar theorie en praktijk samenkomen tijdens de Biomechanica-dag van de NCSAH instructeursopleiding.

Onze studenten doken vol enthousiasme de praktijk in:
van longeren en werk aan de hand tot lessen in het zadel.
Yindi reed met Milky om het wijken verder uit te werken – met mooie verfijning in de communicatie.
Bas sloot af op Justiciero en liet een aantal hogere oefeningen zien – een krachtig voorbeeld van biomechanica in harmonie.
En we zijn ook trots op Janne Linde met haar paard Next, één van onze studenten, die onder begeleiding van Bas een waardevolle training liet zien. Mooi om hun samenwerking en ontwikkeling te volgen!

📌 “Nu is de theoriemap nog waardevoller, omdat alles samenkomt.” – aldus een student
📌 Theorie wordt voelbaar in de praktijk – met directe koppeling naar het rijden en trainen
📌 Een veilige leeromgeving met veel ruimte voor vragen, interactie en verdieping
📌 Respect voor het paard staat centraal – biomechanica en welzijn gaan hand in hand
📌 Samen groeien als instructeur én als paardentrainer

We zijn trots op deze groep en dankbaar dat we dit unieke stuk onderwijs mogen delen.

Daily life of the youngsters ✨ That consists of eating, sleeping and playing outside, tough life they have 😉

A bit of a struggle for this little one 🥰 The grass is a little too low for his long legs, but he insists on eating grass 💙

Selling a horse is about finding the right partnership 💛 We take the time to match each horse with a rider who truly suits them, ensuring a future of success and happiness for both. Because the best partnerships are built on trust 🫶🏻

Good training isn’t about control, it’s about communication. 🐴✨

At Raio de Luz, we follow the principles of “dressage on equal footing,” where fairness, balance, and respect guide everything we do. The result? Confident horses that trust their riders and enjoy their work. 💛
