Miriam Sherman
Personal Coach for horseman and horse
Dear visitor
A very warm welcome to you and thank you for taking the time to visit my website.
My name is Miriam Sherman and I am a certified Straightness Training Instructor by Marijke de Jong and Seat Instructor by Hanna Engström. I call myself a coach rather than a trainer as my approach is very individual.
My services
The 5 elements
In my training I like to combine the different elements of Groundwork, Longeing, Work in hand, Riding and Liberty. Sometimes all of them add onto each other, support each other and are often a puzzle piece into the next step.
Seat Lessons by Hanna Engström
Most rider’s biggest dream and main goal in terms of riding is to become one with the horse. Therefore, it is essential to train our body awareness in best case before we mount our horse. I am a certified Instructor of Hanna Engström’s special developed Seat program for riders.
Onlinecoaching
The internet makes it possible to meet & greet, to study & learn from each other no matter where you are in the world. I offer you online coaching tailored to your individual needs. Either on a regular base, intensive days in a row or individual single sessions. Whatever you wish, you decide.
My lessons
Private one-to-one lessons
I offer you to be coached on your situation and requirements at regular intervals, before ‘bad habits’ can creep in or to simply get new impulses based on the current status.
Day and weekend courses
Workshops are a great opportunity to dive intensively into training, to get to know each other and to exchange experience with like-minded horse people.
Teamwork makes the dream work
Staying over
Would you like to enjoy private lessons in a familiar and cozy atmosphere? Then you are very welcome to our little private yard in Balingen-Stockenhausen submontane the beautiful Swabian Alb.
About me
I grew up with ponies as a young child. My parents, who were quite inexperienced with horses, bought my older sister a Welsh pony, and the second followed very soon, as one cannot keep one alone, of course.
My father built a nice little open stable behind our house and asked neighboring farmers for a few meadows. We quickly learned how to keep and care for horses properly, but how to train or ride horses appropriately was still in the stars for us.
