Training Academy
All students are welcome to study with me for a period of 1, 2 OR 3 years. ( 1 year is approx. 9 months)
You do not have to want to become an instructor to attend the Training Academy.
To become an instructor you are required to attend all 3 years and to supplement your education, can join my master classes 2 days per year every year there after. ( 1 year is 12 months)
There is no limit to what you can achieve when you study in your own time and follow the work set-out for you.
My school is designed to set-you up for success and is
registered with and audited by the CRKBO.
We are a family and take care of each other...
Instructors can graduate and already start teaching in year 2.
With continued education they can earn additional titles called ‘Accreditations’
which also shows their specialist subjects.
It is possible for experienced students or current instructors to fast-track and join in year 2 (this is discussed on a 1-2-1 basis).
A GGWH Graduate Instructor can freely use their given title but are responsible for their own character, reputation, liability & insurance.
See bottom of this page for GGWH official complaints procedure.

Never worry you are not doing enough...
When you join my Academy, unlike other educations, we help take care of you and your horsemanship.
As a Trainee Instructor we encourage you to spread your wings and find your special sauce.
Continued education...
I believe it is possible for everyone to learn how to get good without relying on or waiting for influential professionals...
'' All instructors are trained in groundwork & riding
including specialist subjects like problem solving
& what I call - Trailer Load-IN ''
It was always my dream to create an international school where people could learn how to get good with their own horses and if they wanted to, could also learn how to teach that to others.
Besides that, and as a full time Horse Professional & Instructor one of the downsides was not having a good and reliable resource to send my students too.
That is pretty much how all of this began.
As of 2024 the Academy will spread it's wings and be available at various locations in The Netherlands.
It is also my dream to expand to other countries should appropriate locations arise.
As I look back and see what I have created so far, I am very excited for you, for me and for the horses.
From mind to paper...
March 2020 - First year 1 began with educational materials provided in handouts and playlist on YouTube
February 2021 - First year 2 began with a continued mega expansion on materials
During your 3 year training you will learn how to:
Get good at training horses using psychology & communication
Get good at staying inspired & motivated
Get good at things like Liberty, Bridleless riding, Trailer-Load-IN
Intake is beginner to advanced from the age of 21 years old...
As a long time dressage rider...
...I can honestly say Zoë enriches my knowledge about the art of riding and horses in general.

...to have so much educational information shared by someone with so much passion and love for horses.
