Linnea Aarflot, the mindful rider, is a well renown dressage rider and trainer, who after 20 years of working at Olympic dressage stables in the US and UK among other places, now offers equestrian retreats both for the dedicated rider but also for those who wish to use the horse for personal growth.

Born in a creative Swedish family with a great love of nature, Linnéa developed her talent for art and creativity at an early age – which shines through her passion for horses. As a young rider her natural talent with horses was already apparent, and now holding 20 years’ professional experience, she has worked with a wide range of horses including Grand Prix dressage stallions, World Cup competition horses, NYPD’s horses, military horses, young dressage horses, wild horses and rescue horses. She has helped so many riders to understand, and deepen their relationship with their four legged partners - and themselves.
Today Linnea is based at Spring Hill Dressage in the south east UK, where she produces and competes client’s dressage horses. She regularly goes for clinics internationally and runs The Equestrian Retreat during spring and summer time weekends. Everything with the mission to spread her deep love and understanding for horses - and our human selves.

What's your personal definition of what it means to thrive?

To thrive is to me the moments in life when you feel fully safe, confident in your boundaries and able to express your true self, so you can allow your energy to flow in and out in balance and blossom in your unique way.

Who do you look up to ? Who has helped you the most along your teacher / retreat leader journey?

My current dressage trainer Sune Hansen at Springhill Dressage for riding. My one and only yoga- and meditation teacher, and co retreat leader, Sarah Campbell Lloyd. All the hundreds of coaches, therapist and friends who have supported me in my own personal growth the past million-something years.
