Equinethology ®
HORSE CARE
who
Hi, I am Kris Dane.
Fair chance you might be familiar with my ongoing musical feats, the music however bares a hidden gem: ever since my childhood I have been passionate about horses.
In symbiosis with the musical know-how I approach horsemanship from a different angle, providing basic horse care, practicing equine science & research as well as presenting out-of-the-box consultancy on horsemanship & welfare.
Horsemanship and songwriting share similar skills & characteristics: patience, perseverance, honesty, intuition, timing, rhythm, pace, melody, transcendence…
I am constantly on the look out to improve the physical and psychological equity, aiming for tailor-made methodologies.
Prior to being an approach, a philosophy, a practice and a teaching, equinethology ® is a way of life.
On this website you can find out more about my fields of interest, ongoing research and services in the equine world.
what
equinethology ® is a complementary horse care, beneficial to all horses: from leisure to sport horses, private to competitive horses.
On the ground, equinethology ® improves both the physical and psychological welfare, aiming for a respectable horse within a solid mindset, considering every aspect of work according to its inherent ethics, based on both ongoing experience and everlasting research.
equinethology ® works in close partnership with the Kalahari Hippogriff ®.
with
Originally rooted during my stay in the Namibian Kalahari Desert, the Kalahari Hippogriff ® is an online log,
a written record of travels, activities and thoughts on handling & research.
By sharing experiences I keep looking to improve the deeper inner connection and freedom between horse & rider, strengthening their mutual consideration and understanding, aiming for a a stronger resilience, more reliability and beneficial work ethics.
Take a look for at the highlighted quotes on so-called "equine musicology" that encompass the correlation between sound and rhythm. There is an emphasis on the human voice with its personal pitch, phrasing, intonation & breathing cadenza . Courteous, soft spoken, performed in a laid back manner... such intuitive musical approach often meliorates both human & equine wellfare, supports the act of horse training and shows to be easily applicable.
In essence, the enclosed Kalahari Hippogriff ® sprouts from random literary notes, working from the bottom-up with vivid ideas on day-to-day horse care, reflecting edgy advice on equine management & consultancy. It incorporates every aspect of unity between horse &, human within the ultimate passion we share.
