Natalie is a passionate and experienced horse trainer and nature lover.

In 2000 she came to Spain to expand her knowledge of how to ride and train horses, looking at a variety of possible ways and meeting many different horses & trainers.

Being open minded, eclectic and thirsty to learn allowed her to develop her own working style and her main goal still is to improve her skills each and every day, growing her consciousness and sensiblity.

She is dedicated to training horses, starting colts, working with cattle, giving riding lessons and coaching people, always adapting to the abilities of each personality, no matter if two or four legged.

Besides she adores hosting guests and giving the opportunity to others to dive into the every day routines at Rancho La Teja.

Oliver Kraft

“Whispering with Horses is good. However, the prerequisite is to listen to them.”

At the age of 5 years Oliver had his first riding lessons. He was taught dressage until he was 18 years old. It was then when he got fascinated by the American way of working with horses and he became keen to learn everything about Western horses and how to ride them. Later on he went to the United States and Canada to expand his knowledge and obtain savy from some well known trainers.

Working with cattle is when training horses really makes sense for Oliver.
This is his passion: Training ranch horses and using the rope or the garrocha when doing his cowboy job on open countrysides.
