Brady Jandreau：与马同行的生命律动

马年寓示着一种全新的节奏——奋进不息、活力澎湃，更怀揣奔赴新境的热切渴望。这份特质，与马的天性浑然契合，更与以马为业的人们有着高度共鸣：神秘的牛仔、桀骜不驯的竞技选手，以及技艺精湛的驯马师。

Brady Jandreau在南达科他州长大，从小与马为伴——他之所以能成为名副其实的驯马师，并非天赋使然，而是源于他三岁起就在牧场和竞技场中不断努力的成果。

“马陪伴我度过了人生中的许多难关，”他说。“小时候，我一直在寻找人生的意义。但当我策马时，反而能得心应手，因为我不会给自己施加任何必须做好的压力。”

“当马匹给予你信任时，这份情感远远超越了忠诚。那是一种纯粹的联结，让你与它真正的融为一体。”

A near-fatal rodeo accident at age twenty could have changed everything. Instead, when Jandreau got back in the saddle, his transcendent connection with horses—and struggle to recover from his injury—was immortalized in the 2018 film The Rider. “For people, it's very hard to commit fully to something because we are constantly questioning, critiquing or fearing,” he says. “But a horse, once it learns and knows that it can trust who is in control, they commit fully.”
