1:1 EQUINE BODYWORKER MENTORSHIP

Facilitating equine transformations for clients is incredibly rewarding… but mentoring fellow equine bodyworkers is an ultimate win. 🙌🐴

These before and afters are from our FIRST mentorship session. My client has a solid background and understanding and wanted to further their skill set by weaving in a few more concepts into their approach.

The environment you create with your energy matters, this is one of my secrets to success.

As your bodywork mentor my goal is to advance the skills you already possess and bring your innate gifts forward. This is not a course — it’s an addition to what you already offer, regardless of your modality.

Ready to fast track your results by amplifying your ability to unlock posture shifts with ease? DM for more information, I can’t wait to hear from you.

1:1 MENTORSHIP FOR EQUINE BODYWORKERS

Look at these results!!! 🙌🐴

My client is a skilled bodyworker who was coming up against a wall with supporting her own personal horse. I’ve been there myself and I’m certain our horses are in our lives with a unique set of challenges to further our personal evolution. It’s certainly been my experience and now the experience of a client whom I’ve yet to meet in person!

equimotion_sports_massage is in the UK and our sessions are soley over zoom - we don’t have service in the field so our sessions are done purely off of photos between sessions.

She already has techniques, what I’m teaching her is how to hold her energy and work with the frequency.

Her mare has held this tension and compensation patterns for years and suddenly with the shift of approach is able to unwind her layers.

I attribute the success in her owners willingness to try something different and embody an approach that compliments her style of work. Your energy plays a huge role in the success of your bodywork. Your presence, your focus, your breath.

We are only 3 weeks in and I’m just in love with these changes she has been able to facilitate.

Offering bodywork brings me joy, helping others take their skills to the next level (and support their own heart horses) is a level of success I hadn’t even dreamt of.

Equine bodyworkers, if you’re looking add another layer to your results DM or comment BODYWORK and I’ll send you more information. This work is a game changer!

1:1 MENTORSHIP FOR EQUINE BODYWORKERS

You’re an equine bodyworker who gets results but you’d love to expand your approach and techniques. You’re looking for an additional set of eyes to cover some cases with you while enhancing your skill set. You have an idea of posture patterns and would love to connect a few more dots. You’re not looking for a course, but to hone in your area of expertise and get even greater results.

1:1 MENTORSHIP 4 EQUINE BODYWORKERS is what you’ve been looking for.

My client is already an educated and skilled bodyworker. She had hit a bit of a roadblock with her mare and reached out to see if I could help.

We are only in our first week of her mentorship and these are her results so far 🙌🐴

These beautiful changes are courtesy of who is an absolute natural at equine bodywork. Her commitment to continuing education and embodiment of her work is remarkable and I’m so honoured to have her as a client. If you live near her, I highly recommend her services!

This is not a course or program. I simply teach you my approach and how I achieve the results I do. I see the potential in you and help you bring it forward. We work with your energy, your breath and your attention before we offer our services to the horse. Their level of receptivity is half of the equation.

Did I mention she’s in the UK! This mentorship is available no matter where you live. 🌎🐴

If you’re an equine bodyworker who’d love some support from someone with over 20+ years and over 7 certifications in equine bodywork modalities, 20+ years as a professional saddle fitter, breathwork facilitator and background in applied neuroscience, I’d love to work with you.

DM let’s have a free discovery call.

SADDLE ASSESSMENT CLUB - WHERE POSTURE MEETS FIT !

Tonight 7pm EST (replay included) link to join in comments

"I really enjoyed the session. Your personal interaction with participants really made the session feel welcoming and a true learning environment.

My biggest take away was the need to really look at your horse’s posture, especially from behind, to see what imbalances might exist and then to think about what is needed to improve that imbalance.

Your focus on the horse first, rather than saddles and tools (eg your beloved shims) was refreshing.

Thank you again for sharing."

We desperately need a paradigm shift in our industry. Thank you Yasmin Stuart Equine Physio for your ever clear articulation once again. Love your work!

When your horse extends through their AO joint [the articulation between the base of the skull and C1], their lower jaw retracts - you can feel this yourself if you point your nose to the sky, notice how your bottom jaw glides back.

When your horse flexes through their AO joint, their lower jaw protracts - you can feel this yourself if you press your chin to your chest, notice how your bottom jaw glides forwards.

When your horse flexes through their AO joint, their laryngeal diameter decreases - you can feel this by pressing your chin to your chest and taking a deep breath in, notice how much harder that is.

If your horse has tension in their jaw, they lose range of motion through their AO joint - you can feel this yourself if you clamp your jaw shut, notice how much harder it is to point your nose to the sky or point your chin to your chest - your neck feels tight and immobile.

And the same can be said if your horse has tension through their AO joint or neck, they will lose range of motion through their jaw.

-

Now do all of those movements again and notice how, when you drop your chin to your chest:

It's difficult to inflate your ribs to breathe,

It's hard to round your back,

Your hips tighten up.

This is because you've impinged your deep ventral line.

We do this to horses when we ride with a rein length/tension that doesn't accomodate and support their anatomy.

So if we compress their jaw and neck, we compromise their ability to:

Breathe

Lift their back to carry a rider

Activate their hindlimb.
..Gives us quite a lot to think about with how many horses are ridden and trained, doesn't it?

✨PREMIUM EQUINE CONSULTING✨

Yesterday I had the honour of working with the most lovely horse and rider combo one could ask for 🙌🐴

This was an especially exciting case as this mare had multiple complex compensation patterns that were difficult to release due to a primary restriction in her hoof! Initially she presented toed in LF, increased intra-abdominal pressure, evidence of pull back injury in face and poll as well as general body tension & asymmetry, lack of sling engagement and spinal integrity.

The first step was locating the primary restriction as her tissues held tight and were resistant to letting go of tension. Once we located the primary restriction (she’s no longer toed in LF 🙌) everything began to unwind and unravel. Keep in mind this is a complex case and we are no where near finished. We examined the saddle fit to horse and rider and found ways to support both. The gameplan is to hold off riding while we reorganize and rewire her posture and movement patterns.

This was such an interesting and rewarding case and she offered the sweetest kisses at the end of her session.

I have 2 premium consultations available this August, DM to see if this service is a fit for you and your horse.
