The Philosophy
Anna Jantscher is an Austrian classical dressage trainer, riding instructor, clinician, and horse rehabilitation specialist. She is the founder of Hof Jantscher in St. Georgen am Walde, Upper Austria, where she specializes in horse-friendly, biomechanically sound training that integrates classical dressage with tensegrity principles, fascia training, and rehabilitation.
Biography
Anna has worked professionally with horses from an early age and chose to pursue an alternative path to traditional competitive riding. Rather than following the standard Austrian/German trainer system, she sought education under internationally respected classical dressage masters. She spent nearly five years training with Anja Beran in Bavaria, riding a wide variety of horses—from young horses and rehabilitation cases to highly trained dressage horses—and assisting with clinics, seminars, and demonstrations.
Today she operates Hof Jantscher, where she trains horses, teaches riders, and hosts clinics and educational programs both in Austria and internationally.
