When you’re supposed to be the distinguished senior statesman of the barn, but the visor fits too well…

Meet Skip: Heart & Soul’s official Chief Entertainment Officer (and resident 25-year-old comedian).

Behind all the science-based care, biomechanics, and bodywork we do here, moments like this are what it’s all about—keeping our horses feeling happy, comfortable, and feeling young enough at heart to pull faces for the camera.

Supporting senior horses so they can thrive (and stay this wonderfully silly!) will always be one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

Looking to help your own senior (or young!) horse feel their absolute best? Send me a direct message here to set up a bodywork or PEMF session!

At the end of the day, when you strip away all the noise of the human world, the barn is meant to be a place of sanctuary, healing, and absolute focus.

My work through Heart & Soul Horse Care has always been built on a simple, non-negotiable principle: the horse always comes first. Every session, every touch, and every training moment is dedicated entirely to their well-being, their comfort, and their voice.

People, opinions, and background chatter will come and go, but the horses don't care about any of that. They care about presence. They care about patience. They care about who shows up for them with consistency, integrity, and respect.

Holding myself to that standard isn't just my job—it's my priority. I’m so grateful for the incredible owners, veterinary colleagues, and clients who share this same dedication to force-free, welfare-centered care.

Back to work doing what I love most.

True partnership doesn't require a loud voice or a heavy hand.

River completely beat me to the punch today—running up from the pasture before I could even whistle or call him in. When we focus on choice, clarity, and building a genuine bond based on positive reinforcement, our horses actively choose to be with us. They aren't moving out of obligation or fear; they’re moving out of shared connection.

What does your horse's greeting tell you about your partnership?

Is your horse holding onto hidden tension?

As horse owners, we know when something feels just a little bit off. Maybe it’s a sudden stiffness under saddle, a change in behavior, or a subtle hitch in their stride that you can’t quite put your finger on.

Force is never the answer—understanding is.

Whether you are down the road from me here in Central Oregon or halfway across the country, I am opening up a brand-new way to get professional, gentle, and biomechanically-backed eyes on your horse.

Introducing Heart & Soul’s Custom Movement & Tension Assessments—available both In-Person (Central Oregon) and Virtually (Worldwide via Zoom).

Here is how the Virtual Option works:

You Film: You send me a few short video clips of your horse moving on the ground or under saddle.

We Analyze: We jump on a live, 1-on-1 Zoom call together from my digital office space.

The Blueprint: I walk you through exactly where your horse is bracing, what their biomechanics are telling us, and give you a step-by-step roadmap of gentle, targeted exercises to help them release that tension.

THE BONUS: Every assessment booking includes an exclusive, discounted access pass to our comprehensive Equine Science & Foundations Course, allowing you to dive even deeper into your horse’s anatomy and biomechanics at your own pace.

Stop guessing, start listening, and give your horse the mentor they deserve.

Spaces are limited for August. Send a DM or comment "ASSESSMENT" below to get pricing details and grab your spot!

BIG NEWS & NEW OFFERINGS!
You might have noticed a tiny change to our name recently... Heart & Soul Horse Care is officially Heart & Soul Horse Care LLC!

As we grow, our mission remains exactly the same: prioritizing your horse’s physical and mental well-being to build a lasting partnership rooted in mutual understanding and long-term soundness. To celebrate this next chapter, we are officially opening up slots for our Virtual Training Lessons & Biomechanical Evaluations!

You don’t have to be local to Central Oregon to get a dedicated, investigative eye on your horse's movement and behavior. Whether you are dealing with a training roadblock or suspect a physical discomfort is affecting your ride, we can work together from anywhere in the world.

What we can tackle virtually:
- Biomechanical & Movement Evaluations: Let’s look at your horse's posture, symmetry, and movement patterns to identify where tension or weakness might be hiding.
- Behavioral & Groundwork Consultation: Moving away from traditional force, we use positive reinforcement and force-free methods to address behavioral challenges by looking at the why behind them.
- Owner Foundation Coaching: Learn how to read your horse's subtle body language, evaluate their daily comfort, and support their structural longevity.

How it works:
It’s incredibly simple. You send over videos of your horse (under saddle, on the ground, or during specific movements), and we dive deep during a live, interactive video consultation to build a customized roadmap tailored to your horse's specific needs.

Every "disobedience" is a conversation about comfort, strength, or trust. Let’s figure out what your horse is trying to tell you. Drop a comment below or send us a DM to check availability and book your virtual slot!
