Our offering to horsepeople
Horse people know better than anyone that horses possess a unique gift. They instinctively sense the energy you radiate, the intention behind your actions, and they respond not to what you say, but to what you embody. Whether your ambition is to coach people with the help of horses or to build a genuine partnership with your own horse, everything starts from the same foundation: a person who stands firmly in their own HorsePower®.
Inspired by this vision, we have developed three unique learning pathways. Each has its own focus, yet all are built upon the same foundation: a profound understanding of equine psychology, natural leadership, and mutual trust.
HorsePower® Practitioner
The HorsePower® Practitioner programme is designed for coaches, HR professionals, trainers, and facilitators who want to integrate the HorsePower® model into their professional practice. You will learn how to work with the HorsePower® behavioural model and guide both individual and team development programmes. Beyond mastering the methodology, you will also grow personally in natural leadership, communication, and emotional intelligence.
HorsePower® Equine Coach
The HorsePower® Equine Coach programme is intended for those who wish to coach people through the unique interaction between humans and horses. You will discover how horses naturally reveal emotions, beliefs, and behavioural patterns, and how to translate these insights into meaningful and lasting personal growth. Along the way, you will deepen your understanding of equine psychology and the HorsePower® methodology, enabling you to guide both people and horses with confidence, respect, and professionalism.
HorsePower® Horse Whisperer
The HorsePower® Horse Whisperer programme is not a course in liberty dressage. Instead, it provides the foundations that make true liberty work possible. You will gain a deeper understanding of the horse's natural language and develop the skills to build a lasting partnership with your horse through trust, intention, and Fluid Leadership. By combining profound insights into equine psychology with a deeper awareness of your own HorsePower®, you will discover how subtle energy, clear communication, and mutual respect create a partnership in which movement is no longer the result of command, but of shared choice. This foundation opens the door to everything that follows—from liberty work to an exceptional relationship between horse and human.
Dr. Tom Mariën - Founder Equitom
"As an equine surgeon, I have learned that horses never lie. They do not respond to words, but to energy, intention, and authenticity. Ilse has a remarkable ability to bring human leadership back to its essence—creating safety, providing clarity, and transforming these principles into authentic and practical interactions with horses."

“The power of horses has given me more insight into my own strength, which was hidden under many layers of thinking, instead of feeling. It also helped me gain more confidence in dealing with these big gentle giants. And with it more confidence in life and everything that presents itself. Working with horses in this way, in such a beautiful place, is extremely valuable and unique!”

Ingrid from Herent
“ My motivation at work was completely gone. I have a tendency to make myself small. The workshop made me better understand the importance of good communication. I now feel stronger and I dare to speak my mind. Yes, this also improves the bond with colleagues. It was a nice day. Thanks Rommersum, Ingrid. ”

As a construction company, we’re used to working with hard materials, tight deadlines, and clear structures. But during our team event at Horse Act, we discovered something completely different: the gentle power of connection. Under the guidance of Ilse and her horses, we experienced how our communication, energy, and collaboration were quite literally reflected in the behavior of a horse. No masks, no hierarchy — just real interaction. It was both confronting and enlightening.
What struck us most? That true connection isn’t about control, but about trust and alignment. That realization was an eye-opener — not only for us as a team but also as leaders. The session with Lander, the wise leader of the herd, showed us how subtle leadership can be when it comes from a place of calm and respect. It’s an experience that will stay with us for a long time — on our worksites and in our meetings alike.
A unique and powerful day that brought us closer together as a team — and to ourselves. Highly recommended.

“Lander really triggered something in me today. What an empathetic, wise soul. I have a feeling he still has a lot to teach me — so much. What a gift.”

“ I wanted to let you know how wonderful the workshop was and what beautiful reflections I received. Due to my enthusiasm it may not have been so clearly noticeable, but I am at a turning point in my life and starting yoga classes is a start of that. This comes with the necessary moments of doubt and uncertainty. I realize that I may not have stated this clearly, but at least your horses have responded to this 😊. I am very grateful that with all the information I see more pieces of the puzzle and can move a little further on my way..."

“They hit the nail on the head — the observations, comments, and insights my horse coach noted during the scan session. They perfectly captured how I felt in that moment, who I am, and where I still have some room to grow. And that report afterwards… I have no words for it. How is that even possible?”
Heidi, Caitlin and Meaghan
“Dear Els and Ilse,
Thanks for the 3 cool back to basics days. It was a great awakening between the horses, birds and swallows. Dissined with a nice breakfast and fresh eggs. We found it a very nice and educational workshop with Ilse and we will definitely try to continue. Good luck to you. Greetings, Heidi, Caitlin and Meaghan”

“I have already followed various coaching programs, but that was not horse coaching. With Ilse I was really surprised by her approach. Everything has been very well thought out from start to finish. The beautiful surroundings are an oasis of peace, back to basics! For me, who lives in the center of Brussels, this is truly an incredible relief. I will definitely come back.”
