Sirius Hippologic Pedagogic Competence development is a special pedagogic project for teenagers and young people with special pedagogic needs and often with psychiatric problems or diagnosis.
During training with the hose or during horseback riding, I set up frames to develop a way for a better self- consciousness, communication, conflict management and conflict solution and a new way to understand their own problems. I want to opportunities to let you develop your own personal competence and to raise the value of your life.
It is very hard to handle a diagnose alone, but with the right support and help from family, friends, school and ”Sirius” , You will be able to work with yourself, in a new and different way – by and with the horse.
I know that you already might have a horse, and that you can ride. But if you do not do horseback riding the western style, there is many new ways for development to do, which you might be able to use.
"Sirius" is adapted to persons with problems or a diagnosis as ADHD, ADD, Asperger/Autism, personality disorder, eating disorder, anxiety, stress, depression or PTSD.
By working on transferring the principles from horseback riding to everyday life, you will get a possible way for constructing personal competences through strategies, which can help you to control, handle and process problems and conflict situations.
These competences will be incorporated in a new and different way, than you are used to – by the horse. By time, the principles will work automatically, and you will use them without spending time on thinking og which principles to use.
When you visit “Sirius” for the first time, I will show you how I work and you will see Tammie, my horse. The lessons are “One to one –lessons” so you will be in center. When we have talked about how you are and what kind of help you need, you can have a chat with Tammie on your own, to see if “Sirius” is something you would like to try out.
I would like to base my riding lessons, cognitive and environment-therapy on a detailed plan for course of treatment if you have one. The treatment plans can be from your school, college, care centre, hospital or children- and youth psychiatric Centre or other treatment branch.
"Sirius" is placed just 14 km outside Aarhus, Denmark, at a small farm.
Nonverbal-communication. consciusness of your body
On this picture we are working with body language, how to read the language of the horse. We are using principles from Monty Roberts “Join Up” But instead of using a round pen, we use a riding school, so Tammie is able to use the hoe area, but she decides to stay with us.
Reward, sympathy
After having worked with communication, consciousness of own body, Tammie is rewarded for her corporation. Here the rider is having an important physical contact with the horse.
Defenses mechanism 
Here the rider is working with “letting go” of her personal defense. We are trying to ride with ling reins, but personal defense mechanisms tries to control, by using short reins
Survey, koncentration and fokus
By working with the body attitude, weight distribution, coordination
between eyes, hands, legs as well as the contact with the horse, we gets Tammie to walk along, cross, or walk between the bars.
This is giving a clear pisture of the consciousness of own body and body coordination.
Test of methods in the environment of the nature
After we have worked inside the ridingschool, with its secure frames, it is very interesting to try the methods outside in natural environment.
It is important to see and to be sure and feel safe with the methods.
The influence of the nature, cannot be trained other places than in the nature and the succes can be seen on both rider and horse
