Gina & Roman

German Warmblood
"When I first started with my young horse Roman, she barely could bend left and going to the right, she was so bent that it was difficult for her to go straight. After the time spent with her doing ST, she almost bends better left and has pretty close muscle development on both sides. She is supple, more balanced and getting stronger and stronger each day! Thank you ST!!!!"

Brazilian Sport Horse
From stiffness to suppleness. From 'a horse with a long 'cucumber' frame to a 'tomato'. From a challenge to real change.

Alida & Goldy

Baroque Cross
"ST is amazing! I feel like I've got my power back. I was telling myself so many things about my horse and her health and it made me feel terrible and scared, paralyzed, and stopped me from taking any actions. It's changed now and I totally enjoy spending time with my horse now! And it's just the beginning! Thank you Marijke de Jong. I feel so grateful and so empowered!"

""As an owner of an Akhal-Teke, I loved to hear this: "Maybe there’s no carrying ability in the hind legs yet, but there is a lot of POSSIBILITY". Be a possibility partner!!!" "

"This obstacle in our riding journey has transformed into a valuable learning opportunity. I feel it in every cell of my body now: Straightness Training truly is the path to keeping horses healthy, balanced and happy, also when ridden."

Natalie & Gÿoztes

Thoroughbred
"ST totally changed my whole life. Struggles or so called problems are no longer frightening me, they are just obstacles which I can overcome or challenges which are there to let me and myself grow. My work with the horses has changed in that way that there is no frustration anymore. Without the frustration the horses changed to absolutely motivated horses and our progress is absolutley visible."

Adiva & El Sonador

Andalusian
"Straightness training can be seen as a kind of ‘horse Yoga’ or ‘horse Pilates’ that consists of logical systematic movements that develop the horse symmetrically in body and limbs. Anatomically disadvantaged horses with poor conformation and even lameness can be corrected by training for straightness."

Bartha & Syb

Lippizaner
"I could not ride Syb without risk. He started running out of the blue and threw me off often. I found Marijke de Jong, explaining that horses of all breeds have a natural asymmetry and that we need to rebalance the horse before we can ride them. A new world opened up and I learned about Straightness Training  and started riding my horse without conflicts and with increasing joy every day."

Maarten & Pocholo

Baroque Horse
"My horse told me that he was not up to the things I asked of him,  and I was not educated enough to understand him. He was very obedient but also shut down and never gained muscles. Above all it is a beautiful horse which moved very very stiff and not how such a horse should move... Now, I work him every day with ST and see how he improves. He has gained muscles a lot and is relaxed and happy."

Ivana & Tesstino

OTTB
"When I decided to buy an ex-race Thoroughbred, Tesstino,  I was quite sure there is just one way for us: ST. It

has helped me immensely. I can see and feel so many changes in myself and my horse. If I hadn´t chosen this path, we would probably be struggling with his physical issues and misunderstanding."

Michelle & River

Miniature Horse
"When he was 3, he began to lock up in his hind legs and was diagnosed by the vet with “upward fixating patellas.” The condition worsened and I decided I needed to make a concerted effort to strengthen his quadriceps. What better way than to use the systematic progressive exercises of ST. I am in awe of how well it has worked for my horse, and Iam proud of the progress I have made with River."

Nicole & Pluto

PRE
"Before starting my ST journey, I often felt like I am not good enough. I struggled to ride Pluto, and felt fearful, because two riders fell off him and got injured badly. I really was on a plateau, not knowing how to help my horse and myself out of this downward spiral. Through ST,  Pluto and I feel more confident and trust each other. He is more relaxed and moving in a better healthy posture!"

Sharon & Luna

Thoroughbred

"Luna was an online impulse buy, so I bought her sight unseen. She was fairly fresh off-the-track, so I thought she couldn't be in too bad of condition. Little did I realize... Because of her, I have learned so much. I thought liberty was going to be a challenging pillar, but I didn't realize how much fun it would be! Of course we don't do just liberty, but ST at liberty!"

Kadri & Lemmi

Tori Horse
"When I started riding, I felt that she was tensed, unbalanced. And as I had previously some quite bad falls from horses, this made me quite insecure. Then I heard  about a method that is horse-friendly and focuses on their natural asymmetry: Straightness Training. There are not enough words to describe how grateful I am that I got this challenging horse, who guided me onto this new road of my life!"

Ivana & Spotty Doc Chex

Paint
""I bought Spotty for trail riding when he was 4,5 years old. After two years, I felt neither me or the horse was happy. Spotty was spooky, not able to trot or canter straight in the countryside. ST has brought me to many disclosures. I know for sure it is the right direction. Thank you, ST, for helping me so much with my horse training and for making my days bright!"

""Without ST, our horses would still be unbalanced, muscled in the wrong places, developing navicular disease  – but most of all without ST, I wouldn’t have been able to develop myself as much as I did." "

Straightness Training

Hi, I'm Marijke

Over the last 20+ years, I've been sharing all of my Straightness Training secrets in front of thousands of riders from all backgrounds at my in-person and online events.

I helped my horse Maestro go from "Impossible" to "I'm possible", and since then, I've been on a mission to help riders just like you do the same.

Each of these journeys has proven that with the right guidance, every horse and rider can achieve balance and true harmony.
