Imke Spilker

We are still here…

…and we are patient. We have been waiting for a very long time for humans to truly read a book like ours. 30 years ago, we compelled Imke to write about what she learned from us. And what you can learn when we truly work together. Instead, you prefer dreaming of a harmony that only exists because we no longer fight back. Please, just listen:

We are not sports equipment or playthings; we are living beings. (Just like you, by the way!). It is time for you to seek us as teachers, not as tools. We do like your treats, but we prefer helping you learn how to become useful friends instead of trainers of your horses.

Sovereign at all times simply – HORSE.

And since we have our noses out front and play the lead roles here, the same applies to the photo: HORSES ONLY! (Perfectly put into focus by the photographer Elena S., the horse-text freely translated from the horses' digital sanctuary: imkespilker.)
