welcome to our web site, which is still a work in progress but which aims to inform you about the purposes and activities of the „XENOPHON - Society for the Culture of Classical Riding“. Here you'll find news and seminar suggestions, and our online libary will provide you with thought-provoking essays and tips to help you with the daily training of your horse.
Only those who respect the nature of the horse in its physical and spiritual form and who step away from the categories of 'dominating' will acquire a partner who can make a human truly happy in the saddle. This happiness is not defined by public recognition but by the feeling of being one with a horse in total harmony. A rider's art is not measured by the degree of difficulty of a movement, but rather by the degree of harmony between horse and rider and by its visible expression. The way to get there is clearly marked, and you don't have to be a master rider to follow it. It is derived from a wealth of experience in the saddle that goes back centuries - correct, true and effective to this day. And this wealth must not be lost or forgotten. Therefore: Maintain and support the culture of classical riding.
