Background & Approach

Sarah Van Daele

Dressage Rider, Trainer & Certified Equine Bodyworker

With over a decade of experience in sport stables across France, Belgium, Germany and Luxembourg (notably alongside international dressage rider Terhi Stegars), I have had the opportunity to train and develop a wide range of horses: from young prospects and high-level sport horses competing nationally and internationally, to leisure horses and rehabilitation cases. My riding and system have also been shaped and refined through clinics and advanced training with renowned trainers (Rien van der Schaft, Morten Thomsen, Fie Christine Skarsoe, etc.).

These years in the barn and stable management, working closely with equine healthcare professionals, gave me extensive experience with varied breeds and profiles (Warmbloods, Iberians). Above all, they inspired me to take a more holistic approach to the horse : one grounded in anatomy, physiology and biomechanics.

This naturally led me to train in France with Equiphysio, where I earned my certification.

Today, I train horses, coach riders and support physical comfort through equine massage and stretching, travelling directly to your stables.
