A Candid Conversation with Dressage Legend Emile Faurie

Join us as we sit down with the legendary Emile Faurie, a stalwart in the world of dressage, for an open and honest interview. Emile shares his incredible journey, including his recent challenges with cancer, from which he is now in remission.

In this heartfelt conversation, Emile discusses: - His training philosophy and approach with riders and horses, including updates on Tom Goode and their progress. - The challenges facing the equestrian industry today, why he believes the sport is "in real trouble," and how we can come together to support each other and the future of equestrianism. - His definition of equine welfare, which he sees as rooted in respect for the horse, and what that truly means to him. - The myth of money being the ultimate barrier to success in the equestrian world, and what really makes the difference. - Practical suggestions to better support dressage stewards and riders during competitions. - The importance of truly understanding and knowing your horse to provide them with the best care and opportunities to thrive.

We’re thrilled to announce that Emile has joined the Animalweb team as an expert, bringing his wealth of knowledge and passion to help riders and the wider equestrian community.
