The Gap Between the Gap™ — where stress softens and clarity returns, in and out of the saddle this season.

training & certifications

the foundation behind my work

This work is built upon over three decades of embodied study, professional training, and lived experience across breathwork, neuroscience, meditation, yoga therapy, trauma-informed care, somatic healing, longevity systems, and end-of-life support.
Each lineage and certification contributes a different strand of wisdom — forming the multidimensional approach I bring to riders, athletes, elders, and anyone crossing thresholds of change.

why this foundation matters

Each certification, practice, and lineage reflects a different way of understanding the body, the breath, the nervous system, and the human experience. This foundation allows me to meet every client — rider, athlete, elder, or seeker — with depth, precision, and attunement to their inner landscape.

Whether supporting trauma release, regulating the nervous system, enhancing rider–horse coherence, or navigating life transitions, this training ensures that every session is held with integrity, compassion, and the intention to help you return to your most coherent, grounded self.

For over three decades, my work has evolved at the intersection of breathwork, neuroscience, somatic healing, and embodied inner practice. Alongside my formal certifications, my approach has been shaped by years of disciplined study under the guidance of a living master — training that refined my capacity to listen beneath the surface, regulate energy with precision, and support clients through profound nervous-system transitions. Every session I offer is grounded in integrated knowledge, cellular attunement, and a foundation of lineage, science, and lived experience.
