Human and animal
Every being has its own personality
Our team consists of a mother with her two daughters, their 6 horses and
7 mini ponies.
We are a family that has found a love for horses and now wants to share it with the whole world.
Horses have so much POTENTIAL for us humans, can give a lot of LOVE and JOY and you can also experience that with our horses. Simply cuddle a pony, stroke it, feel the fur, look into the eyes, touch it gently, brush it, walk with them on a rope and lead them. To experience yourself in nature with them.
Animals accept us as WE are. This is exactly what makes working with animals so special and unique. You can switch off from everyday life and just be yourself.
Each of our horses or ponies has a unique PERSONALITY that makes them special. So that you can get to know our team members a little better, we have written a short statement about each of them.

Thoroughbred Arabian gelding, born April 2010
When it rains I become a “diva”. If there are structural or emotional changes in the stable, I have to take a closer look at it immediately.
Because of my clairaudience and attentiveness, I am described as “curious”.
Hungarian warmblood gelding, born July 2005
After so many years, I finally live with a loving horse owner with a great herd. With a lot of effort and patience, I regained confidence: "I can finally just be a horse again!"

Thanks to my many experiences with children, I am a loyal, gentle soul and companion in every respect.
My calm is my strength, which I have always carried within me. Good hay is important for my well-being.

Mom of Demiro
I love being a pony mom.
I could enjoy being petted by people for hours. Otherwise, I am a very balanced and calm companion pony and like to go on tour.
Mini Shetland pony stallion, born April 2023
I come from Salzburg and immediately felt at home with my new friends. I tend to avoid arguments and do my own thing.
I find the people very interesting, and I also always have to check that there isn't anything edible hidden in my trouser pockets.
Born May 1997
After graduating from high school, I didn't really know where my path would take me. I looked at a few different types of training options.
I found out about the Lichtblick association through acquaintances and friends and then completed an internship. Here I was able to experience how carers support disabled children with animals. It was a very beautiful and intense time. After that it was clear to me that I wanted to work with children and animals.
I am currently completing my college for elementary education in Pressbaum.
My animals are my family. They are always there for me and give me strength.

Born May 1995
My calling is horses, even as a small child I always wanted to have a horse and so at the age of 9 I was allowed to look after my first riding horse. Shika, my second, gave me all her trust and calm in my hyperactive youth. The greatest gift was Shika's foal, Viddi, who always gives me a lot of support and peace. I also completed horse management training at the Spanish Riding School. I then ran a riding stable for two years and now I look after and train my horses, support friends with their horses, give riding lessons and enable people to meet horses. My job in this team is to look after the horses.

I live for my calling!
What is my calling? To share my life's journey with other people, who show the joy that we carry within us, our being.
Our horses show me my emotional world every day. Through them I have had a lot of experiences that I can now pass on, such as warmth and gentleness. Everyone should be able to have an experience with a pony/horse.
