Report of the magazine Reiterrevue 2000:

Equine Sport Therapist Micheal Baxter An-Sc, “loose and flexible through life”

(Supporter of  the  Aegon-Team and his work on the competitions):

“…. Baxter with his mammoth program is getting supported from his partner Karin Link, his former student. “Karin is so talented and motivated that I just kept her for myself” he smiles. As he is was in Frankfurt,

Karin was looking after Beat Mänli’s horses at the World Cup in Geneva…”

 

Destiny of life

 

Failing exams can change life by chance positively. Spring 1995 I was training and getting ready for the

license to compete in medium level. Failing the dressage test with my own horse, I was looking for professional help. Finding a good professional dressage rider with experience I was well prepared and

passing with bravura. Getting invited by this professional rider to a clinic of Michael Baxter's Equine Sport Therapy, I got a smell of this fantastic world. Full of enthusiasm I studied at the Academy of Equine Sport Therapy  and in a special clinic with difficult horses coming in, I had very little problems with the horses. Michael Baxter looked at me, mentioned I have big talent for this and my life started to change.
