Karen Rohlf: Not Missing The Forest

Here the goal is to help our horses realize what they can do in their bodies that will enable them to carry us firstly without pain, and secondly so their physical potential is unleashed.

Welcome to the Horses For LIFE blog!

After publishing our magazine for years, and creating an incredible repository of information, we came to realize that we had created – a monster!

A monster of information, that for our new readers might simply be overwhelming. And in our busy hectic lives of today not everybody has the time to read the magazine from cover to cover. Especially since Horses For LIFE is uniquely so incredibly content rich. In depth articles, engrossing and revealing interviews and our tendency to just making each issue more content rich than the one before, means that each issue is in essence the same as sitting down and reading an entire book!

So for our new readers and for our existing readers we wanted to help out. Hence the Horses For LIFE blog, where we will be sharing tidbits from various articles through the years. Each blog piece short and to the point that hopefully will give you some equestrian tidbit to ponder or to help you with your horse that day, short enough to be helpful even on a busy day. But might also remind you of the article that you just must read.

We will be sure to let you know as well those articles that are free to all registered users. Registration of course being free. We are here first and foremost for the horses.
