Nevzorov Haute Ecole

Nevzorov Haute Ecole (Translated: The High School of Newsorow) or NHE for short is a way of living together and communicating with the horse that is taught by the school of the same name.

The horse should be taught high school exercises on a voluntary basis . The school says it stands up for the well-being of the horses. For this reason it rejects the riding of the horse in general and especially tournament and racing with horses.

background

The school was founded in 2004 by Alexander Newsorov and his wife Lydia Newsorova. Lydia Newsorowa is a hippologist and claims to have the title of "Equine Thermographist". She tries to show that the weight of the rider, jumping over obstacles or using the curb can cause damage to the horse. Such studies form the basis of the Nevzorv Haute Ecole's educational system. Alexander Newsorov was a student of classical horsemanship before turning to NHE.

The school describes the horse as an intelligent living being that can solve given tasks, make decisions and pursue intentions that are beneficial to it. You don't always have to be dominant to learn new exercises with the horse.

By 2010, NHE also included horse riding. However, since this irritates the muscles and damages nerve cords (which run in the spinal canal) by squeezing the intervertebral discs, riding was removed from the NHE teaching.

The guiding principle is a quote from Rudolf G. Binding : "Your horse is the best teacher. It is closed to you if you listen to other teachings than his. Learn from the horse."

Teaching

The school teaches handicraft, floor work and mind games with the horse as well as respect for the horse. She values ​​the wellbeing, physical and mental health of the horses. The course content includes husbandry, feeding theory, anatomy as well as philosophy and ethics in equestrian sport. No pain should be inflicted on the horse. Body contact and “grooming” are part of the school. Some exercises are only possible with advanced physical maturity of the horse. Mutual understanding and communication should be learned playfully through exercises that build on one another.

The exercises and school jumps of the high school are shown without auxiliary reins . Instead, a cotton rope ( Cordeo ) is put around the horse's neck to keep contact during exercises at a distance.

The school is divided into individual levels:

1. Build friendship and attitude
2. Ethology (behavior)
3. Anatomy and communication
4. Physical fitness and illness
5. high school

According to its own information, NHE is widespread in its country of origin Russia as well as in America and Australia. The number of NHE students is also increasing in Europe.

Criticism of other equestrians

Nevzorov claims the tournament sport is brutal and the horses suffer from it. Therefore, he advocates a ban on tournament sports. In 2010 he started an action "Against Equestrian Sport Petition" which criticized the keeping of horses for slaughter and called for equestrian sport to be removed from the program of the Olympic Games.

Nezorov refuses to ride. The negative effect of the saddle and rider's weight was shown on the basis of tests. It has been proven that a simple riding crop has a negative effect on the muscles below.

NHE questions horseshoeing . With the help of thermographic images it can be proven that horseshoes can narrow the hoof mechanism and cause inflammation.

Nevzorov rejects the work of a horse on the circle, as with the join-up . He doesn't consider himself a horse whisperer .

Criticism of NHE

In 2012, Nevzorov published that the school had taught horses to read, write and understand Latin words. It is said that a horse was taught to write the names of objects and its physical needs in letters. Around 1900 Wilhelm von Osten attributed comparable "skills" to his calculating horse, Kluger Hans .
