📖 PIB e-Books
Thoughtful resources for riders who want to understand more than just what to do.
​
The PIB e-books are designed to help you develop a deeper understanding of your horse, movement, and the decision-making behind good training.
Rather than offering fixed recipes or quick solutions, each e-book explores the principles that shape thoughtful, horse-centred training. They are written to help you observe more clearly, ask better questions, and make training decisions with greater confidence and understanding.
Whether you are just discovering the PIB approach or have been following the journey for years, each e-book builds upon the previous one while also standing on its own.
Because good training is rarely about collecting more exercises.
It is about learning to see.​
🌿 Start with the Free eBook
The Art of Shaping Balance is the perfect introduction to the philosophy behind Pferde in Balance.
Inside you'll discover the ideas that shape the entire PIB approach—from balance and communication to biomechanics, self-carriage, and thoughtful guidance. It offers a gentle introduction to the way I think about horses and the principles that influence every lecture, challenge, review class, and training decision.
If you're new to PIB, this is the ideal place to begin.

🧠Continue with the PIB Compass
The PIB Compass takes these ideas a step further.
​
Across 191 pages, it brings together the theory and thinking behind the PIB approach and explores how the different pieces of training connect within the bigger developmental picture.
​
Rather than offering a step-by-step system or a collection of exercises to work through, the Compass provides a practical framework for reading your horse, understanding what may be happening underneath an exercise, and making thoughtful decisions about what comes next.
​
Built around five interconnected layers - Understanding & Motivation, Coordination, Integration, Surefootedness, and Collection - it helps you orient within training while remaining adaptable to the individual horse in front of you.
​
Because the destination is never the Compass.
​
The destination is always the horse.
