Move Beyond Bodywork
At Prime Equine, we don’t just treat symptoms — we build foundations.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all program. This is an invitation to transform the way you and your horse train, ride, and live — starting from the inside out.
As a certified movement and postural integration trainer, competitive mounted shooter, and passionate horse advocate, I combine real arena experience with cutting-edge modalities to support horses in all western speed events and disciplines. My training and coaching integrates the Balance Through Movement Method™ (BTMM), nervous system regulation, biomechanics, fascia function, and owner education into a powerful training system designed to improve posture, protect joints, and elevate performance.
The Foundation: Balance Through Movement Method
BTMM, developed by Celeste Lazaris, is the cornerstone of my approach. It’s a revolutionary system built on three essential pillars that tone the nervous system and support spinal integrity:
Pillar 1- Relationship to Connection
-
Reduce your horse's fight or flight response
-
Improve their posture through nervous system balance
-
Release compensatory patterns
-
Teach your horse how to self regulate
-
Build topline muscle
Pillar 2 - Balance & Core Activation
-
Develop the deep muscles necessary for self carriage
-
Find core stability through relaxation
-
Further improve posture & strength
Pillar 3 - Spinal Integrity & Range of Motion
-
Reduce over-compensation of the neck and back
-
Improve spine and limb range of motion
-
Reduce excessive wear and tear on joints
Not sure if This is Right For Your Horse?
If you notice signs like:
-
Compensatory Posture (think "goat on a rock")
-
Roached lumbar or lack of topline
-
"Bum high" or disconnected movement
-
Recurring tension despite regular bodywork
-
Behavioral issues or training plateaus
-
Spookiness or gate refusal
-
General loss of spark, or speed
These aren't just quirks, they are clues. And they're fixable!
A Full-Body, Whole-Horse Approach
In-person sessions and clinics include a variety of complementary techniques tailored to your horse’s needs:
-
Sure Foot Pads to activate proprioception and create lasting neurological change
-
Class 3 Laser Therapy to support tissue repair and reduce inflammation
-
Kinesiology Taping for support and decompression of targeted areas
-
Body Wrapping to encourage proprioception and nervous system regulation
-
Craniosacral Techniques for releasing tension patterns and restoring balance
These modalities work synergistically with movement retraining to unlock postural potential, regulate the nervous system, and support your horse’s long-term wellness.
Ways to Work Together
🔹 Virtual Coaching
Start from anywhere. My 2-part Start Your Horse Off Right intake process includes posture photo mark-up, a full Zoom consult, and a follow-up training session implementing Pillar 1 of BTMM. From there, we move at your horse’s pace with milestone-based follow-up sessions.
🔹 In-Person Sessions (AZ)
Available in the Prescott Quad Cities, Phoenix Metro, and Flagstaff. These sessions may include manual techniques, movement retraining, and supportive modalities (laser, Sure Foot, craniosacral, etc.).
🔹 3-Day Clinics (USA & Canada)
For barns or riding groups ready to make a shift — clinics combine theory, education, demonstration, rider empowerment & biomechanics, and hands-on work with horses, both in hand and under saddle. Horses and their owners leave with practical tools they can apply immediately, supported with virtual follow ups!
