Workshops

From time to time, I offer small, in-person learning experiences for horse guardians and professionals who want a deeper understanding of gentle, horse-centered bodywork and presence-based interaction.

These workshops are grounded in observation, respect for the horse’s responses, and practical skills that can be integrated thoughtfully and safely.

Workshops are offered selectively and may vary by location, setting, and availability.

When offered, workshops may include:

• Introduction to gentle equine bodywork and touch
• Observation-based assessment and listening skills
• Supporting relaxation, comfort, and mobility
• Horse consent, boundaries, and pacing
• Integrating bodywork principles into daily horse care

Workshops emphasize learning with the horse, not performing techniques or achieving outcomes.

• Small group settings
• Hands-on and observational learning
• Emphasis on safety, consent, and presence
• Appropriate for horse guardians and equine professionals  

No prior bodywork experience is required unless noted.

Foundational workbooks and learning materials may be made available to support workshops or independent study. These materials are intended to complement—not replace—hands-on guidance and professional care.

Availability may be limited.

Workshops are not offered on a fixed schedule.

If you are interested in future learning opportunities, you are welcome to reach out or express interest. When offerings become available, details will be shared directly.
