“Svante has a lot to offer, and I am confident that he can assist most riders to advance their abilities with confidence to the next level. I hope that people with young or troubled horses will observe him often, and pay close attention to his words.”
Leslie Desmond, International Trainer and Coach
“We enjoy Svante’s presentations. He was a joy to work with, patient, clear in his directions and always willing to repeat what he was saying and doing as often as he needed to until we understood. His concern for both horse and human students was obvious, as was his ability and skill. We definitely recommend him.”
Bob & Betty King, Arizona, USA, International Roper, Trainer and Coach
“the most enlightening experience of my career.”
“Svante’s coaching was the most enlightening experience of my career. I have never seen anything like this. The incredible thing I learned is that my former approach - using traditional methods that rely on brute strength – are enhanced immensely with the addition of this valuable knowledge, and feel. These new building blocks make the biggest impact of the development of our younger horses.”
David Allison, Stalker at the Grosvenor Estate, Scotland
“I have learned so much more about how to present the groundwork so the horse can easily understand what is being asked of him and how this carries over to softer, lighter ridden work. Svante was excellent at identifying what I was doing to confuse the horse and therefore giving me simple changes which made all the difference.”
“I also learned a lot about how to coach humans, from his gentle style.
Svante’s calm approach & patience with horses is reflected in his calm approach & patience with people to support them in their learning. He is with humans how he is with horses, accepting, trusting and endlessly patient. From him I learn how to be a better human, as well as a better horsewoman.”
Fiona Webb, England
“Svante is extraordinarily perceptive of not only horses but people too. You feel one hundred percent supported on your journey to understand your equine friend through feel. He is a truly inspirational teacher.”
Caroline Steven, Cumbria, England
“I was in Göteborg to attend Svante’s clinic . . . and this is just to tell you how happy my friends and I are about Svante’s way of teaching feel. He is truly a great coach. It was very, very helpful for me to have him explain what feel is, and how the smaller particles of feel can be applied to horsemanship for best results. He has a polite and precise way of dealing with horses and people. Now, we’re working to bring Svante to Norway!”
