Robbi: I came to horses late in life. I was in my forties when I bought my first, having always wanted to discover the magic of connecting with horses whom I knew to be very sensitive and sentient beings. Horses will demand that you stay in the moment with them when you ride. You cannot let yourself wander off in thought because your horse will know. Horses feel every muscle in your body, your tension or lack thereof, your sadness or your joy, your confidence level, your fear, and your power.
