George Stubbs' Painting of 1763 might explain more than one may conclude at first sight.
You're the One Who Asked for the Dance.
Don't forget; You brought the horse into your world of people, so it's basically you who will have to manage and take the lead in making it work. So, you will have to take the initiative, because you as a predator asked the horse -a prey animal- to dance.
You asked the horse and you should be the advocate of the horse within the relationship because the horse just answers your skills, your personality, and your... limits too.
The concept of Integrated Horsemanship is about you. It's about your skill to find specific answers, your specific path to the horse and the common achievement that lay ahead of both of you.
It's indeed all about you, doing it your way, but for sure... doing it. Instilling the balance in an enduring relationship. For that purpose, we developed Integrated Horsemanship.

This international foundation has been founded by Nicole Zoet-Oostermeyer as a center of study and philosophy dedicated to integrated horsemanship, beyond the constraints of equine cultures, riding styles, equine usage, disciplines and types of horsemanship.
