"This unique approach combines the deliberate motor-output (movement) and real-time sensory-input (proprioception) of voluntary pandiculation to cause your brain to rapidly change its own sub-conscious patterns, fast.
This work, rooted in the principles of basic neuroscience, is light-years beyond anything else (yes, even Feldenkrais)!"

I've been on a quest to find the secrets to becoming a better rider, mastering Feel and riding with less pain for as long as I've been in love with horses.
I’m a super nerd, a questioner, a researcher and a learning-addicted horse-lover, and I’ve spent decades doing the work. Reading all the books. Taking all the clinics. Trying different methods, following different gurus, across oceans and continents (sometimes) in my quest for answers.
Call me stubborn, but I just wasn't satisfied with answers like:
"It takes a lifetime..."
"Riding correctly is supposed to hurt, you'll get used to it." -or-
"One day you'll just feel it." 🤷♀️
I’ve studied the anatomy, biomechanics, horsonality, veterinary science, classical riding, bodywork, alternative modalities, natural hoof care, a bunch of top horsemanship programs (and the knock-offs). English. Western. Dressage. Liberty. R+...
I've got a bachelors degree in Equine Science. I've taught clinics all over the world. I own and direct the only practitioner certification training program for Equine Hanna Somatics®. I’ve studied heart-math, psychology and dance, therapeutic riding, yoga, human evolution, body building, endurance training, hypnosis, physiology and neuroscience…
And what it comes down to is this:
We are programmed, at a very basic nervous-system-level, to be athletic, pain-free and to AGE WELL.
It's easier than you'd think to bring back suppleness and fluid movement so you can effortlessly flow with the go and feel both super-confident and 'at one' - with a horse, in your sport, and inside your own skin...
BUT FIRST we have to become more connected to our own muscles and activate of the power of our incredible brains to self-regulate and un-learn the tension and compensations we've accumulated over our lifetime! I've helped hundreds of athletes and riders discover how.
I want to help you build that bridge between that dream life you put on the shelf… to you actually living it, starting, well, how about tomorrow?
If you jump into the course and don't like what you see let us know. Because you get immediate access to the training and downloads you will need to show us that you went through the training and it didn't work for you in order to get a refund. We want to make sure you have an amazing experience and we think you will love this video course.
If you already have a maintenance or treatment plan for yourself, HS is a wonderful compliment that will make your body easier to 'adjust' and help the results of other therapies to last longer. You may even find that you will need need fewer and fewer sessions or treatments (of any type) to stay supple and moving comfortably.
If you are in rehab from an injury or have a chronic condition, you can still benefit greatly from the exercises in this course. All of the HS exercises and movements are gentle enough for anyone to do once you are out of the acute injury stage. So, as long as your medical professional has given you permission to begin physical therapy, you can safely modify these Hanna Somatics exercises for your soma.
