Testimonials
“It's been instrumental having Shelley join our team. I've struggled over the years finding physio that helped my horses and actually benefited them long-term. After having Shelley join our team, I can see a huge difference in the core strength of my horses and flexibility. Riding is one key part of building flexibility and strength, but having Shelley help develop exercises for each of my horses has been a game changer.”

“Shelley has been an integral part of my team for many years now. Her ability to monitor my horse's movement, performance, and fitness gives me comfort in knowing that we are being proactive in maintaining sound performance horses. Shelley's biomechanics program is also extremely important to both myself and my clients' ability to maintain fitness and strength in the saddle. I refer clients all the time to Shelley for the pure fact that Shelley and her team help me do my job better. Happy healthy horses and riders all around.”

“I am utterly thrilled, exhausted and amazed after my ride today! Maya is now at a place where I don’t have to spend all my energy and focus on her and her attitude and frame. We can start just having fun. So I decided to focus on me more in the saddle. Amazing!!! I am amazed at how much taller I am in the saddle, how much longer my leg, how much less I need to do to influence Maya and how she responds in kind in her body.”
