Straightness Training

20/11/2025

Yesterday, life asked something of me again.

As you know, earlier this year I said goodbye to Maestro, the horse that is the very reason Straightness Training exists.

And yesterday, I had to say goodbye to another soul who walked a purposeful path with me.

Our beloved Coddi 🐶 passed away. Her name Coddi means:

“To travel purposefully toward an as-yet-unknown destination.”

And that's exactly what she did.

Five years ago she walked into our home with an open tumor and a few months to live… yet she lived five more years, full of sea walks, pack life, safety, love, and purpose. And yesterday, she reached her destination, peacefully and naturally.

Because of this, as you can imagine, we lost a day of momentum with the Legacy Launch, because yesterday simply belonged to Coddi.❤️

But something important happened while I was with her:

Way over 100 people enrolled in Maestro’s Legacy...
and because we weren’t monitoring, many believed they were within the “first 100” receiving the Touchstone bonus.

And when I realized this, it was immediate clear:

We are not taking that away from you.
Not after what happened yesterday.
Not after the messages Maestro and Coddi gave us.

Maestro’s message was:
“Make ST available and accessible to every rider who needs it.”

And Coddi’s final act (her coddiwomple) reminded me again:
"Keep moving purposefully forward."

No barriers.
No limitations.
No restrictions.

So here is what we are doing so you and your horse can keep moving purposefully forward:

🦄 Get EVERYTHING Maestro and I created over 24 years with 98% OFF, so you, too, can move forward with purpose, progress, and finally create the results you're looking for.

🐶 And in Coddi’s honor, you have a few more hours to benefit from the extra bonuses, and EVERYONE receives all 3 bonuses.

When you least expect it,
life throws you a challenge…
To test your courage,
and your willingness to change.
In that moment,
🙈 there’s no point pretending nothing is happening,
🙉 or telling yourself you’re not ready.
The challenge won’t wait.
Life doesn’t look back.
🙊 It’s been 24 years…
People will feel sad about it.
And that’s true.
Because a chapter is ending.
But sometimes things have to end
so something bigger can begin.
One moment is all it takes
to make a choice:
🧭 To accept your destiny,
🔒 or not.
And right now…
I’m still wondering if this is really the right choice.
But deep down,
I know it is.
More on Sunday.
Something BIG is coming:

🌺 For those who may not have seen it yet, I shared a personal post about Maestro (1994-2025), the horse who shaped Straightness Training. You can read it here:

Maestro, my soul mate and the horse who is the reason that Straightness Training exists, has passed away at age 31.

He came into my life as a tor-mentor, but he was a gift in disguise and turned out to be a true master, living up to his name: Maestro.

For 24 years we learned and grew together, and our journey was filled with discoveries, opportunities, possibilities, and joy.

I wrote a personal post to honor him, his lessons, and the impact he's had on thousands of riders around the world.

🌺 https://www.straightnesstraining.com/horse-blog/maestro/

Maestro can rest in peace. All is well. He lived the beST life, lives on in our hearts and memories, and now he's on to universing.💫

Does your horse feel stiff, resistant, or unmotivated?

Does some days just feels like nothing works?

🚨 Your horse leans on one rein.
🚨 Won’t bend.
🚨 Resists the bit.
🚨 Or feels stressed.

You try harder, but the more you push, the more your horse pushes back.

I’ve been there too.

With my horse Maestro 🦄, every ride used to feel like a struggle.

So you’re not alone.

And let me tell you, it’s not your fault.

The real problem isn’t your horse’s attitude…

There's a hidden force that is innocently working against you.

Once I understood that, everything changed.

In this free masterclass, I’ll show you exactly what I learned:

⚠️ The 5 biggest mistakes I made with Maestro
💡 The 3 secrets that changed everything
🦄 How you can create the same transformation with your horse

Discover how to make it possible — even if your horse feels impossible to train!

Does this sound like your horse:

⚠️ Difficult to turn
⚠️ Difficult to ride in a round frame
⚠️ Hard in the mouth
⚠️ Taking the rein on one side
⚠️ Impossible to do sitting trot
⚠️ Underneck
⚠️ Hollow back
⚠️ Stubborn

These are all symptoms of natural asymmetry.

And it's tempting to fight these symptoms with special bridles or gadgets...

But that only makes things worse.

In my new video, you’ll discover:

- Why fighting the symptoms backfires
- How it puts your horse's health and longevity at risk
- What to do instead to address the root cause

When I met Maestro 🦄, I started using my horse for dressage, instead of using dressage for my horse.

I had forgotten who my horse really was: a war horse.

Back in the day, knights and kings trained their horses for man-to-man fights ⚔️ and to be prompt, precise, polite partners in the most intense situations.

Today, we no longer prepare them for war…

But we do want the same qualities:

⚔️ Flexibility
⚔️ Mobility
⚔️ Agility
⚔️ Cool
⚔️ Calm
⚔️ Collected
⚔️ Courage

Want to know more about how to do this?
