Hi, I am Marijke de Jong
Nice to meet you!
I helped my horse go from 'Impossible' to 'I'm possible'—and now I teach riders how to do the same.
You, too, can make it possible—and I'm here to guide you every STep of the way.

Meet Maestro
Born in 1994
Between 2001 and 2003, I was struggling with my horse Maestro with no idea how to move forward.
He was always running, rearing or resisting my guidance.
I felt frustrated, stuck, and started to doubt myself.
I thought it was impossible to find balance and harmony—but I proved myself wrong...
The Missing Piece
From Impossible to "I'm Possible"
Thanks to Maestro, I discovered how to balance a horse in body, mind, heart and soul—and called it Straightness Training.
I found the missing piece—and that changed everything!
Now, I want to help you overcome the struggles with your own ‘Maestro’—and maybe prove yourself wrong, too.

3 STages
Straightness Training helps your horse to go from Impossible to "I'm possible"

01.
From a 'Problem' Horse
When your horse is out of balance, your face all kinds of challenges, such as running, rearing and resisting.

02.
To a 'Normal' Horse
When your horse is back on track, you can do all the normal things together—like a ride in the forest.

03.
To a 'Talented' Horse
When nothing is holding you back anymore, then what once was used against you, will start working for you.
