Franziska Müller outlines professional training for horse-assisted coaches

Franziska Müller, founder of the MindMirror®-Coach Ausbildung, is highlighting the requirements and professional standards for becoming a horse-assisted coach. Based in Stuttgart, the training program focuses on combining deep coaching competence and personality development with the use of horses to facilitate change processes.

Müller emphasizes that horse-assisted coaching is distinct from riding instruction or horse training. The primary focus remains on the human client's personal or professional concerns. Horses are utilized because they react immediately to human body language, presence, and internal attitude, often making underlying issues visible more quickly than verbal discussion alone. According to Müller, a professional coach must master coaching processes rather than relying solely on horse exercises.
