THE PEOPLE, VALUES AND PLACES THAT BRING ALTERRENO CENTRE TO LIFE
Deep connection is a way of living and working with horses at one of Italy’s premier equestrian centres. From our philosophy to the BHS certified professionals who embody it, from our unique approach to classical riding and ethical care, to the Tuscan estate near Peccioli that holds it all-every element exists to support conscious horsemanship and meaningful transformation for both horses and humans.
A trained architect, horsewoman by calling and human guide by nature, Angelika has over 30 years of professional equestrian expertise. She is drawn to the innate wisdom of horses and her passion is sharing this gift with others. With Angelika, the horse becomes a teacher, never a tool. Every interaction between person and horse is guided by her deep understanding and mindful attention.
Our teachers bring diverse skills and unique voices, all sharing a deep commitment to presence, respect and authentic connection. Together, they create a learning space where horse and rider grow in harmony through classical principles and ethical training. Discover the passionate professionals shaping our world-class programmes.
