The Project Team:<br />

The <strong>Kraft</strong> Water <strong>Walker</strong> is a combined development<br />

of 4 experts, each with a different specialization.<br />

Claudio Voncinin, founder of the <strong>Horse</strong>wellness<br />

Company and race horse farm owner from Italy as<br />

well as Uwe <strong>Kraft</strong>, owner of the Uwe <strong>Kraft</strong> Company<br />

and breeder from Germany deserve special mention.<br />

Claudio Voncini<br />

from Undine, Italy is a<br />

passionate race horse owner<br />

and also owns a construction<br />

company. He has spent many<br />

years researching the<br />

combination of horses and<br />

water.<br />

Speaking with Experts:<br />

Uwe <strong>Kraft</strong><br />

Reitsportgeräte & Metallbau GmbH<br />

Riedwasen 10<br />

D-74586 Frankenhardt - Honhardt<br />

Andrea Menegaldo, farrier from<br />

Italy and co-developer of the<br />

Water <strong>Walker</strong>.<br />

Question: You are familiar with<br />

the first water walkers. How do<br />

you describe your experience?<br />

Answer: The training results are amazing. Even more<br />

fascinating is the joy of the horses when entering the<br />

pool and especially the even temper they show<br />

before and after training. Individual training and<br />

therapy programs can be implemented for a number<br />

of horses at the same time. This greatly reduces the<br />

work load of a horse farm.<br />

Question: As veterinarian and manager of an<br />

equine practice, you have decided to install a <strong>Kraft</strong><br />

Water <strong>Walker</strong>. What moved you to this decision?<br />

Answer: The great freedom of movement with which<br />

the horses walked in the water walker convinced me.<br />

This team developed the <strong>Kraft</strong> Water <strong>Walker</strong>, System<br />

Voncini in approximately 5 years; from the initial<br />

blueprint to the start of production.<br />

The specialized knowledge of these 4 experts was<br />

combined to produce the best product for therapy,<br />

training and the general wellness of horses.<br />

Uwe <strong>Kraft</strong><br />

from Baden-Württemberg,<br />

Germany and holds a Master’s<br />

degree in Metal Construction.<br />

He founded the Uwe <strong>Kraft</strong><br />

Company when he was 25<br />

years old and this company is<br />

now a leading manufacturer of<br />

horse walkers in the world. He is also owner of a<br />

breeding and boarding farm.<br />

Hermann Josef Hackenesch,<br />

Riding and boarding farm in<br />

Munster, Germany.<br />

Question: <strong>Your</strong> farm received<br />

the first <strong>Kraft</strong> Water <strong>Walker</strong> in<br />

Germany. Why did you decide on<br />

a water walker?<br />

Answer: We had been researching this option for a<br />

long time. We cannot offer natural bodies of water<br />

such as a lake or river to our horse owners and<br />

that is why we were searching for an adequate<br />

alternative. <strong><strong>Horse</strong>s</strong> should not only have fun but<br />

also have physical and therapeutic benefits.<br />

That was the first thing that impressed me when I<br />

visited the Hackenesch’s water walker. Every horse<br />

can freely choose its own rhythm and gait. That<br />

loosens the muscular system and encourages stress<br />

free movement. The visibility through the walker’s<br />

fences also adds to this freedom. I also feel that the<br />

oval shape ideally balances the weight-bearing load<br />

on the joints.<br />
