This site was initially conceived as an English language online presentation offering the services of Petra Beránková to a wider audience, as her long-standing domain name vycvikkone.cz is meaningless to non-speakers of Czech and other Slavic languages. However, the realization soon dawned that its potential is much wider than that. Why not make it into a hopefully useful resource for everyone interested in training and riding horses without compromising their welfare and everyone’s safety? It is also a goal of this website to present Czechia as a great destination for horse owners and horse lovers, which it most certainly is.
