Ive been around horses since i remember myself. I started as a kid at my grandparents farm, as a 5 year old, i helped with horses and all garden works, which included saddling up the horse for pulling wain and all other things.

Before that i was schooled by one of the best brakers in our stable and i continued to brake in horses the same way. And then i bought my own horse and schooled it up to 120cm level.
