In this episode of the Curious Equestrian podcast, Anna Louise Claydon warmly welcomes the esteemed horseman Bernd Hackl, known affectionately as Bernie. With over three decades of experience, Bernie shares his wisdom on the deep connection between horses and humans. He advocates for empathy, understanding, and a return to traditional, hands-on horsemanship. Bernie's philosophy is rooted in self-awareness and the pursuit of a genuine bond with our equine companions. Listeners are invited to reflect on their approach to horse training, inspired by Bernie's dedication to changing the equestrian world through kindness and mutual respect.Learn more about Bernd: berndhackl.deFor more information about UK clinics with Bernie: https://www.facebook.com/BlackfordGlen/[email protected]Horsemanship Journal produces the Curious Equestrian Podcast.
