“Deviltry of details” New Lecture
With the theme "Deviltry of details" we started our lecture series. During our clinics we talk about different subjects while showing an power-point-file. Beginning next year those lectures are also available as an online-book.
The Obituary for My Best Horse Ever
One of my students named her “Frau Professor” and that’s exactly what she was; Utina was my masterpiece. She’s the one who made me take a three-month break from the Riding Institute [von Neindorff], she was that difficult to ride. Her sensibility always got in her way. She was [...]
Pedro the Western horse
Pedro was an Appaloosa-Spanish cross. He came to me as a six year-old in 1999 for training, shortly after I bought Utina, and was supposed to be sold. He’d been ridden Western in a very sensitive and refined way, so converting him to classical dressage was no problem at [...]
Escadalo the bullfighter
Escadalo was trained in Madrid and used for bullfighting. He was severely injured during a “Corrida” when the bull stepped on his hoof and then ripped him up quite badly. Because he was such a beautiful specimen, he was rescued but then sold on cheaply to a German horse [...]
Fraggle and Bijou
Fraggle and Bijou Fraggle, a Haflinger, and Bijou, a German Riding Pony were with us during our time at the Neurod Equine Center. They were available for lessons. We trained both of them to the L Level. I remember fondly the opinion of an Austrian student who said that [...]
Walk like an Angel
Walk Like An Angel “Walk Like An Angel” by Weltmeyer, nicknamed Angie, came to us in 2004 as a three year-old. She was an eye-catcher at the competitions, but she was always a bit crazy. Nevertheless she almost always placed; her appearance was very convincing. We presented her as [...]

Poseidon Poseidon came to us as a 12-year old in 2006 when we had our teaching business at the Neurod Equine Center. He was trained to M Level and was always a gentle giant with the students. After we closed that business, he was placed with a riding student [...]
Contessa Westphalian Warmblood
Contessa by Captain came to us in 2003 as a nine-year old. We took her over from a student who had to relocate for professional reasons and no longer had enough time for her own horse. Because Contessa had spent most of her life with him, she grieved that [...]
Elfenherz by Elfengeist (Trak.)
He was sired by Elfengeist and out of Akazie from Argentina, one of the best broodmares at the Schlossaecker Stud. He came to my barn as a freshly-started three year-old. At that time, Patric started the youngstock as general riding horses and was enchanted by his calm composure and [...]
“Wotan” – how it all began
Wotan by Widukind Wotan – How It All Began Wotan by Widukind My “riding career” at the Riding Institute von Neindorff began with Wotan. I got him when I was 18 years old and was just able to afford a horse of my own. He was a Trakehner by [...]
