Learn the RIB Method
We've split our former two-day course into two separate one-day events, so you can choose the pace that suits you best.

The introduction to the RIB method begins with two engaging lectures by Maria Terese and Håvard Engell, where they share fascinating insights into how the body works and what it takes to become a better rider. After that, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch at Finnskogtoppen Spa and Wellness Hotel, before moving into the gym for a practical demonstration of training without a horse. The day ends at Kalneset with a live demonstration featuring horse and rider.
