Bradley Bockrath says:

"Jean Luc approaches his challenge drawing on the wisdom of the traditional masters, especially de la Gueriniere, combined with a deep understanding of the functional anatomy of the horse given by more modern scientific investigations.  The anatomical illustrations are especially noteworthy for their clarity.  These illustrations are combined with high quality video clips of horses in motion.  Seeing them together is what really makes clear the connection between the horse’s skeletal alignment while in motion and either a balanced, supple gait or a strained, damaging gait."

Caroyln Sanchez says:

"I just finished reading your new CD for the second time and want to thank you for it.  Though it gives a great deal of meaty science-based material, the excellent anatomical renderings really help to illustrate the text.  Finally, a book to bring it all together: the science, the training, for the good of the horse.  Your unique sense of humor and  cartoons were appreciated, as were the photos of you riding.  I have to assume that there are other books on the way, and will look for them on your website."

Dear Helyn and Jean Luc.

"I am emailing you to thank you for the much inspiration I’ve been getting through your website and for the great job you both do in educating people and enabling them to improve soundness and welfare for their horses. I again really want to thank you for the great work that you do and let you know that you inspire many many riders and horse trainers around the world. The horses truly need people like you and I hope to be able to participate in a clinic and meet you at some point."

"Not only did Mac learn how to use his body properly, he has become even more than the horse I hoped he could be.  His talent and athletic ability has blossomed and continues to develop.  A horse that rejected moving and any hint of collection, now enjoys exploring his abilities and embraces high collection.  Those rides of harmony and incredible expression – when you are in “the zone” - aren't unpredictable gifts from heaven but occur almost every day.  Without Jean Luc's knowledge, ability and, just as important, willingness to share that knowledge and skill, Mac and I would not have found the window.  I look forward to returning to the show ring with my “new” partner who enjoys his work and is a joy to ride."
