Equine performance starts with a healthy horse, dm me to book your discovery call!

Stop chasing symptoms. Start addressing the system.

If something feels off in your horse's movement, it's rarely isolated. It's a breakdown in the kinetic chain, and treating one piece without seeing the whole picture is how you end up going in circles.

I'm an Equine Performance Specialist. I look at compensation patterns, soft tissue tension, and structural imbalances. Not a temporary fix. Long-term efficiency.

Client days are Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and some Saturdays *spaces are limited.

If you're seeing something you can't quite name, send me a DM. Happy to talk through the process before we start.

I didn’t get to the show ring on a trailer someone else packed.

I was a Pony Club kid who worked my lessons off. While others were hacking, I was setting jumps, hauling water, and grooming at A-rated shows just to earn my seat in the saddle.

My parents worked hard, but the ‘help’ this sport requires was out of reach—so I became the help.
I worked construction with my dad and groomed for my coaches because I refused to be left behind. I learned that Efficiency isn’t a luxury; it’s a survival skill.

That is why I created the

At Axiom Equine Performance, 10% of every session fee is sequestered into a fund for the kids who are currently setting the jumps. The ones who are grooming until their hands are raw just to get one lesson.

When you book an initial Structural intake with me, you aren’t just investing in your horse’s longevity—you are providing a ‘leg-up’ to a young rider who has the grit, but needs the gold to get to the next level.

I am looking for Vanguard Partners who believe that talent shouldn’t be sidelined by a price tag.
Let’s build a future where the hardest workers get the biggest start.

The Announcement: From Foundation to Architecture

Many of my clients over the years know by now I focus on the “one good step” as I believe one good step changes everything.

Natural Presence Equine Bodywork was my foundation. It was named after my own mare and a personal journey of trial, error, and a relentless drive to figure out how to truly help my horses—both in the saddle and on the ground.

In 2018, at just barely 18 years old, I took the leap. I balanced life as a working student and working construction with my father to fund my path toward becoming a Certified Equine Sport Therapist. During that time, I was fortunate to be mentored by a true pioneer, Dave Collins.

By 2021, that experience led me to become an Equine First Aid Instructor and partner with Equi-Health Canada, allowing me to offer disaster planning and help establish Certified Safe Facilities throughout BC.

The Present: Sequestering the Noise

Lately, I have sequestered myself in study—prioritizing education, applying new skills, and constantly refining my logic. I am currently in progress toward becoming a Certified Equine Ergonomist (CEE). Later this year, I will be offering exclusive case-study opportunities for a select number of clients as I finalize this certification.

As I aspire to solve the structural challenges facing the modern performance horse, I realized I needed a title that could grow alongside my evolving skillset. I needed a system built on precision and measurable results.

I needed Axiom.

I needed a way to sequester the noise of the industry down to what truly matters:

The horse and the partnership.

And with my ever growing love of knowledge, my title aswell.

Introducing: Axiom Equine Performance (AEP)

AEP is more than a name change; it is a commitment to the Axiom Pillars:

Ethics = Efficiency = Profitability.

The Leg-Up Initiative: I am proud to pledge 10% of all session fees to the Leg-Up Initiative—a program designed to help talented young riders participate in the sport we love. Many of us wish we’d had a "leg-up" when we started; now, every time you work with AEP, you are helping the next generation get theirs.

The Sovereign Referral Program: I believe in collective collaboration and making the right choice easy. I refuse to pay for Meta-ads. Instead, I am putting that money back into the people who believe in and support this mission. Any client who refers a peer will receive $20 (cash or credit) toward their next session.

What changes for you?

🔬 Structural Analysis: Every session is a deep dive into your horse’s biomechanics and postural efficiency.

🤝 Real Rewards: A referral program that pays you for your support.

🎗️ The Vanguard Vision: 10% of every session funds scholarships and sponsorships for the future of our industry.

We aren't just "working" on horses; we are architecting their best performance.
Welcome to the Vanguard.

To the next step,

The Work That Changed Me—Through Horses

I thought I understood bodywork.
Touch here. Stretch that. Cue sigh of relief and noble head tilt.

But something shifted.
Not in my hands.
Not in my technique.
In me.

Because this work especially with horses It doesn’t just teach you what to notice.
It teaches you how to listen to things that don’t make noise.

Like how stillness isn’t always peace.
Sometimes it’s a body holding tension like a secret it never learned how to tell.
(And wow, does that hit close to home.)

I used to hunt down tight spots like a pirate chasing buried fascia.
Now I ask:
What’s being guarded?
What’s been rehearsed so many times, the horse doesn’t even know it’s bracing anymore?

Some horses melt the second your hand lands—
like they’ve been waiting for someone who doesn’t ask too much too soon.
Others?
They read your energy like a résumé.
And if you pass the vibe check, they might offer a single breath as a peace offering.
Maybe.

And release?
It doesn’t show up like a fireworks display.
Sometimes it’s a tail that stops flicking.
Sometimes it’s the absence of something that’s always been there.

You feel it in your own breath before you see it in theirs.
(Unless you’re holding your breath too. Ask me how I know.)

I used to think bodywork was about doing something to a horse.
Now I’m convinced most of the time, they’re working on me.
Subtle. Quiet. Incredibly patient teachers in 1,200-pound bodies.

This isn’t about fixing.
It’s about permission.
It’s about showing up so calm they stop checking for danger
and so honest they don’t mistake you for it.

Stillness, I’ve learned, isn’t something you give a horse.
It’s what they give you when they decide you’re not interrupting the conversation they’re having with their own body.

And sometimes, they wait you out.
Not because they’re stubborn because they’re smart.
They’ve seen us coming in hot with good intentions and busy minds.
And they know better.

Every session now feels like a conversation in a language I’m only starting to understand.
The muscle shifts, the weight transfers, the blink that lasts half a second too long it all means something.
You just have to shut up long enough to notice.

And sometimes…
I forget that.
Still try to rush the moment. Still mistake quiet for progress.
And then the horse blinks slowly like, “You done?”
I never am. But I try.

So I’ll leave you with this:

When was the last time your horse let go... before you asked them to?

Did you feel it?
Or were you too busy narrating your own good intentions to feel the grace already unfolding beside you?

Starting “Natural Presence Equine Therapy” at 18 years old while still in college working on my certification in 2019 was no small feat—it was a leap fueled by passion and a vision to help people help animals. The original logo reflected that simplicity and purpose. Fast-forward to today, and “Natural Presence Equine Bodywork”represents a bold evolution of that dream, blending care, connection, and sophistication.

It’s been an intense journey. Behind the scenes, there’s sponsorships, rebranding, and admin work that could rival the most complex puzzle—not to mention the constant urge to feel like my brain’s on the verge of falling out. But every piece of this whirlwind is building toward something far bigger than I could have imagined back then.

One thing I want to improve on is capturing more photos of myself working. My posts often stem from firsthand experiences, so showing those moments feels important—it’s time to bring that story to life visually.

My ultimate goal remains the same: helping people help animals. The business is growing in new and exciting ways, and while staying focused through all my excitement is a challenge, it’s special to see things finally falling into place after years of setbacks, challenges and failures. Timing may not always be on my side—especially in this economy—but I’ve learned it’s less about perfect timing and more about creating opportunities that align with the big picture I’ve always envisioned.

This has been a long time coming, and I’m truly proud of what I’ve built so far. There’s so much more in the works, and I’m *so close* to sharing it all. For now, here’s to perseverance, growth, and the extraordinary possibilities ahead.

🐴Horse Enthusiasts!🐴
I’m exploring the idea of offering a course on how to help keep your horse’s back healthy. It would be a few hours packed with practical techniques and insights to support your horse’s well-being.

✨ If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, let me know! I’d love to hear your thoughts and see if there’s enough interest to bring this course to life.

I’ve been doing a ton in the backend including putting a reference manual together so it would be great to see some interest. I am also updating my website aswell so I will be more present on here and on Facebook again.

What do all of these equine professionals have in common?

02/09/2025

A quick inquiry, as I am working on a workshop for massaging your horses back with tips and tricks to help your horse!

Who would be interested in participating? It will include a take home manual to refer.

What's in a name?
That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet

- William Shakespeare

The inherent presence of a horse evokes feelings of awe and serenity. Standing tall and elegant, their powerful yet gentle nature captivates all attention. The gentle swaying of their mane and the rhythmic tapping of their hooves form a calming symphony that harmonizes with the environment.

Being near a horse, you can sense an unmistakable energy—a fusion of strength and tranquillity—that permeates the air. Their large, expressive eyes seem to carry ancient wisdom, reflecting a profound bond with nature and their surroundings. The warmth of their body and the scent of their coat provides a comforting familiarity as if they embody the very essence of the wild.

In their company, time appears to stand still. The stresses of the day fade away, replaced by a soothing sense of connection. Whether they are galloping freely across an expansive field or quietly resting in a paddock, horses radiate a natural elegance that commands admiration and respect. It’s a feeling that reminds us of life's beauty and the special bond we share with these extraordinary beings.

I've always wanted to describe where the name came from.

Natural Presence Equine Bodywork

My mare Virago turned out to be the inspiration

(one of the two four legged reasons I persued my education)

Her registered name is Natural Presence

There was a deeper satisfaction that I wasn't able to place my finger on.

Back in 2018 I mulled over the name for what felt like ages. I wanted something unique and bold but memorable.

I spent hours searching the internet to find the perfect name but they were all so gimmicky. I still made lists of some of my favourites, however.

Until one night I couldn't sleep.

It finally hit me.

The name was grazing out in the back field, it always felt like it embodied something more than me, something greater then I understood initially.

When I told my dad at 18 that this was going to be the name with such certainty I could feel it deep down in my core, it felt very cheesy to admit it though.

Now after all this time it still captivates the feeling I hope to achieve with all the horses-reigniting their presence, empowering their non-verbal voice and help them naturally reach their greatness.
