Sarah Rob
Who am I & what do I do? My name is Sarah Rob, I am a horse and human trainer and human body coach and have been self-employed for over 25 years.
If you would like to find out more about me, you can find more information on my homepage , Facebook page or Instagram profile.
I have my own training stable in Hanover and have been helping various horse-human couples for over 20 years. My work is based on my body coaching for people.
In horse training, I mainly use the French art of riding and the Horse-Focus Training concept from Natural Classic.
How and for what I use the PADDLE
I use the paddle every day for my own horses and also for my riding and school horses. I use it for dressage riding, riding out, teaching, breaking in and seat training.
What I love most about the PADDLE!
The paddle is super comfortable to sit on and super easy to adjust for all types of horses. The horses really like it because it is very flexible and light and the rider's weight is well distributed.
The paddle is a good first/quick solution, especially for new students without suitable and good equipment. I always have something with which I and my students can start riding straight away. Many then go on to buy their own paddle.
The paddle is also a very good way to get to know Signum Sattelservice and then to buy a high-quality Signum saddle with saddle tree. The price-performance ratio is extremely good. There is nothing comparable on the market.
To whom I would recommend the PADDLE
The paddle is really something for anyone who wants to do something good for their seat and their horse. I would also recommend it as a good first step if someone wants/needs to save up for a high-quality, more expensive saddle with a fixed saddle tree. I wouldn't use the paddle for trail riding or for extremely long rides. But the most important thing is always to ask the horse and all the horses that have tried my paddle have been very happy and relaxed with it.
