Sensitivity and firmness: the bond between women and horses
A relationship built on daily care, listening and presence — and a sport in which women and men compete side by side.
For many women, the horse is more than a sport or a hobby. It is a space of presence, where attention to another being and awareness of one’s own body go hand in hand.
A companionship that teaches
Horses respond to what we feel, not just to what we do. Living with them teaches us to combine sensitivity and firmness, clarity and patience.
Competing as equals
Equestrian sport is one of the few Olympic disciplines in which women and men contest the same events, with no gender division. What decides the result is the partnership between rider and horse.
With horses, strength has never meant imposition.
In this pillar, we gather stories and reflections about this bond, always with respect for the horse and for the women who devote part of their lives to it.
