Australie
My Experiences with Birgitt have been none other than inspiring.
I met Birgitt when she was giving clinics throughout Australia a
few years ago. Her professionalism and no nonsense approach to training
horses was so refreshing.
She was the first instructor, who I
put all my faith in and just did what I was told. Birgitt had a way of
guiding me through a lesson without me having to question why or how. I
only had 2 lessons that year from her but the memory stayed with me always.
I also had the chance to watch Birgitt handle a very difficult student
with so much poise and class. As a coach myself, I made a
mental note to remind myself to try to handle such difficult
situations similarly. Birgitt was a true role model and ambassador for the
sport of dressage.
Birgitt is also very kind. I rang her over a
year later and asked if I could come to train with her in The Netherlands.
She remembered me and graciously invited me to stay with her. Birgitt gave
so generously of her time and allowed me to ride all her horses in
training at the time. It was special to me because in Australia you never
get to feel and try out how to ride on well trained horses.
