The Horses Who Made Me - by Alizee Froment

Want to know more about Alizée and her journey? 

How she found her way from competing in international dressage at the highest level to the world of liberty work, and how her horses shaped her into who she is today? Then her beautiful book is absolutely worth a read.

It connects so beautifully with the Liberty course she's created in collaboration with TRT Method. Because to truly understand where her approach comes from, knowing her story makes everything click.

"In my eyes," says former French international dressage competitor Alizée Froment, "dressage is the journey to perfect communication and absolute harmony between horse and rider."

In her deeply personal and strikingly beautiful book, Froment traces her evolution as a horsewoman, a dressage competitor, and now a world-renowned performer and liberty trainer. Readers meet the ponies she learned on, and the challenging mounts that helped her grow as a junior rider. There were horses she immediately loved and horses she had to work to connect with, and eventually there were Mistral and Sultan, who she calls her "yin and yang," and who elevated her aspirations both beside and on the back of a horse. It is with these two special souls that Froment further explored riding the Grand Prix movements with only a neck rope, no bridle or bit, and often bareback as well, demonstrating to the world the potential that is there for all riders to enjoy, if they are open to the experience and are willing to take the time for it to evolve.
