Yoga
A practice that encourages compassion for what is, rather than what has been or what will be in the future. An opportunity to tap into Sensory Awareness for full embodiment. A practice that is just that, a practice. It is not yoga perfect. Everybody is different with their own needs and proportions; therefore every posture will look, and most importantly FEEL different for every person.
White Feather Yoga is a conscious, breath-centered, physical, and energetic alignment-based, slow flow, that provides an opportunity to listen to your inner wisdom and notice the activity of the mind. Whether you are a gentle beginner or a seasoned practitioner. The practical application of meditation is an integral part of every practice, and the foundation of a spiritual, therapeutic, and somatic practice experience.
Private Yoga Session

Whether you are healing from an injury, would like to fine-tune your practice, or have a ‘class’ designed for your practice at home. This is a wonderful way to delve deep into body alignment, mechanics, breathwork, meditation, and asana. 60-minute session/with email summary sent.
When we can be still and in the silence of the brain, there is the opportunity for Magic or Sruti, direct experience, and knowing. We just have to slow down enough to listen.

A Modern, Comprehensive Healing Platform. For you and your horse, and for non-Equestrians. What is the language of your body and mind communicating to the horse and the world? Let the Equus be your guide.
Yoga, on the Mat, and Horseback for the unique needs of the Equestrian Body and Mind, Specializing in Anxiety for Performance or Pleasure. Unifying horse and rider through awareness of energy, body, and the mind. For our Equine partners to perform at their optimum, we must be accountable for what we bring to our horses in our bodies and minds. Be balanced, strong, supple, and calm.
Meditation with the Equus, be inspired by the Language of the Equus. Advanced energy medicine, Women’s Women’s Circles, Holistic Horsemanship, and Consciousness practices in Energy Accountability for horse handlers and for those wishing to learn more about themselves.
Supporting difficult transitions, perhaps you are wondering if it is time for your horse or pet to cross over or you are grieving the loss of a pet. Let me help you through this heartbreaking experience.
Equine Assisted Women’s Wisdom Circle
The Equus are alchemists. They provide a supportive energetic container as we come together to allow ones’ wisdom to shine. The mission of the Wisdom Circle is to invite one back to their place of knowing.
Along the way, we have been distracted by life. By doing, producing, and working. This Circle is the time to step back from DOing and into Being within a community. Part workshop, part introspective, partly led, we will spend our time together in non-judgment…..as we find compassion for the parts of ourselves that have kept us from being fully home. Gifting ourselves time to reflect, move, wonder, and receive the gifts that nature, stillness, and community have to offer and empower us to find our hOMe within.
With Conscious Movement, Meditation, Philosophy, Self Reflection, Nature, Advanced Energy Healing Practices, Shamanism, and inspired by the Equus we return. Participants will experience, and receive tools to help them live in harmony with themselves.
YOGA: On Horseback
Postures and breath work to help you connect to your horse in the saddle. This curriculum improves riders' coordination, communication, and increases core and upper back strength to stay ‘light in the saddle’. Increases flexibility in the spine and pelvis to keep the body strong, and supple. If we lack flexibility in our hips and spine, this limits the fluid movement in our horse. Postures will bring a deeper connection in your seat and a deeper awareness of your horse. Techniques to reduce stress in the body and mind, benefit trail rides or competition, but most importantly your equine partner, as when you reduce anxiety and calm your mental chatter, your horse will be able to hear your whispers. Your Equine partner will have fuller movement. A more relaxed demeanor and your body will no longer be dictating their imbalance. If we have any tension in our minds, this energy translates to our bodies. This tension will affect your horse. Perhaps head shaking, chomping at the bit, jogging, lack of fluidity, spooking, or perhaps your transitions could use some work. When we are out of balance, our horse is as well.
No yoga experience is necessary. All riding disciplines are welcome. 45 and 90-minute sessions are available to meet your individual needs. Package and group rates are available. Our horse is our partner and is not used as a tool to perform acrobatic postures, but an opportunity to apply postures to deepen our connection, both physically and mentally.
YOGA: on the MAT
A comprehensive practice created for the unique needs of the Equestrian Body and Mind. Postures bring strength, flexibility, and fluidity to the body to prepare you for your rides and to help you stay healthy for the long run. -No Yoga experience necessary. 4 Class series-Upper/lower body/Full body/the Mind-On-demand Video Library
“I have to tell you that I used the breathing technique for downward canter transitions in my lesson this week. The wonderful schoolmaster I rode SO appreciated the subtle cue instead of closing my fingers. Woo hoo!!!!” KR Life long Equestrian

ADVANCED & Shamanic ENERGY MEDICINE-For your Horse
A healing session for your amazing horse. Often times horses will communicate that they need some energy healing. Perhaps no matter what you have done, something is still not right. Perhaps there is a spot that aches, that is stuck, or that they need something different from you…. Our horses have things to say, they have needs and are angels and deserve the best we can give them. Traditional horsemanship ways are being questioned for good reason. Many ‘ways’ are about bullying the horse into submission. Bigger bits, spurs, and tighter nosebands. How can you work with your horse to get the most out of your experience with them? Can you let me listen to what they have to say? Perhaps it is an energetic adjustment that needs to happen….And how can you help them? The session combines intuitive communication, hands-on energy healing, stretching, and massage. 50/80 min sessions- In person or virtual.

Spiritual Alchemy
Discover Your Truth | Live in Freedom
We are Energy. Thought is Energy. Our body is Energy. Our body holds the energy of our thoughts and traumas. Trauma becomes ‘stored’ and ‘collected’ in our organs and tissue. A true road map of our lives’ events energetically projecting out to the world. If uncleared, either verbally or energetically, can result in dis-ease (anxiety, depression, and perhaps something physical). Our energy projection (thoughts/physical energy) is what we think and feel. Often times more of the same finds us in thoughts and actions, other people and situations. Our ancestral and karmic past is also stored in our cellular memory. Often dictating our unconscious actions. Advanced Energy Healing is a powerful practice supported by seen and unseen energy, firmly rooted in deep tradition and evolutionary practices. Release the energy that no longer serves you, so that you can move forward in liberation, strength, clarity, and passion to be fully you. Sessions are private in the sanctuary of our home studio or barn.

Equine Assisted AEH
The energy of the Horse just is. There is no hiding. They see things as they are. They will show you things about yourself if you are willing to listen and move forward with the courage to be open to change. We are here to assist.
A previous Wild Mustang’s energy is some of the purest energy you will ever be gifted to be with. If you have ever been in the presence of a horse, you know that they are special. Perhaps you don’t have words. Most people don’t. To quote Winston Churchill, “There is something about the outside of a Horse that is good for the inside of a man.” (or woman) There is a magic balm with a horse that makes everything better. Everything seems to fade away and one finds truth in being present with and around horses. One of the most unique things about a horse is the size of their heart. The energy field of a horse extends 7 to 8 times around the diameter of their body. So when you are in that field, your body can energetically sense the heartbeat of the horse and begin to attune. This is called Heart coherence. A horse doesn’t lie, especially Belle. She will show me exactly where the energy in your body is holding on even if you ‘say’ otherwise. She will show me certain behavioral clues that have meaning. Sometimes being in the presence of a non-critical, objective, pure being allows one to open up more fully, to allow healing to take place. The walls come down for an experience of shedding, releasing and bliss to be held by Belle, the energy alchemist.
Advanced Energy Healing with Belle & Mojave
Bring balance to the energetic systems in the body. Allow Belle, Co-facilitator, to help you bring awareness to sensations in your body and thoughts in your mind. Horses are mirrors to our own energy which allows us to see with clarity and authenticity. Horses are a little bit of magic and when we can exhale and feel supported in their presence our edges begin to dissolve. You are held by the herd in safety and truth.
Advanced Energy Healing Sessions will vary and be based on meeting the individual needs of the client and may include but are not limited to; Chakra clearing, Energy Clearing and balancing, Chord Cutting, Soul Retrieval, Journeys, Divine and Angelic Healing, Life Coaching, Nutrition. We will work directly with Belle in the paddock.
Creativity Workshops
Discover/Inspire/CreateWorkshops are designed to help one uncover and discover what lies beneath the surface when tapping into a creative source. An opportunity to express our truths, in a safe and nurturing environment, with out inhibitions, in a format that invites uninhibited expression. Meditation tools and journal writing are the catalyst to creativity. This is an opportunity to work with multiple mediums while learning about the principles of art and design and specific techniques to allow your work to be an external expression of your inner landscape.
Art and Creativity have been a part of every ancient culture. They were inexplicably interwoven into everyday life. The line between function and creativity blurred. In our modern world we rarely allow ourselves to create. When we allow ourselves to create we tap into space in the brain that is different than our mundane lists and left-brained organizing. Often times we tell ourselves that we are not ‘good’ enough, ‘creative’ enough or have been scared off of even trying to create, as often the reply that I hear is ‘I can’t draw.’ Creating is about just that. Creating. Not the product.
These workshops are designed to help one uncover and discover what lies beneath the surface when one experiences liberation to tap into their creative source. A different way to access the deep spaces in the brain that hold our truths. With out inhibitions. Through gentle guidance and in a sacred, supportive container, meditation tools and journal writing are the catalyst to creativity. Regardless of medium, one is able to learn a new form of expression and creative outlet with a variety of mediums. This is a wonderful practice for the experienced artist who needs some inspiration or for the emerging artist within.
