Imagine looking back a year from now and saying…

✅ I qualified as an Equine Sports Massage Therapist.
✅ I built a career that fits around my life, not the other way around.
✅ I finally did something for me.

Because that version of you? They’re not a fantasy. They’re waiting, one small decision away.

We’ve seen it happen time and time again. Students from every background, parents balancing school runs, full-time workers squeezing study around long days, horse owners who thought they didn’t have the time or confidence to start, all finding their rhythm, finding their confidence, and building something incredible.

This course was designed for real people. People with muddy boots, busy lives, and buckets of passion.

We know you don’t want to give up your horses, your job, or your family time, and you don’t have to.

💬 You can study flexibly, fitting your learning around your current routine.
💬 You’ll be guided every step of the way by supportive tutors who get it.
💬 You’ll graduate with a qualification that opens doors, whether that’s a full-time equine business, a part-time income alongside your job, or simply the ability to care for your own horses in a deeper way.

And right now, you can book your 2026 course at 2025 prices before our price increase.

That’s one more reason not to wait.

Because a year from now, you’ll either be wishing you’d started, or you’ll be living the life you dreamed of.

So, what’s it going to be?

New Horses Owners we were all there at one time yet often people judge rather than offer a helping hand
We all get things wrong, worry about not knowing, and often when we have been on a journey of learning we forget to give grace to those who are travelling the same path at a different time.

We often forget that there is always a whole new world that is opening to someone owning a horse for the first time, knowledge we take for granted is often new for someone else

I do not know about you but I can remember learning bandaging a tail for the first time and even struggling to wrap it up the correct way so the next time we used it, it unrolled correctly, I also learned at a time when we were still using needle and thread to put plaits in and elastic bands were frowned upon

And yes there are new things now but still having a basic knowledge of how to do things when all is calm is often knowledge that is remembered when an emergency hits, learning to apply a poultice to a foot is much easier when a horse is not in pain than trying to learn when a horse is reluctant to give you his foot due to a painful abscess

Learning the normal temperature, respiration and pulse of the horse is crucial as often you might have to check the temp if it is late at night and your vet may want to know as they cannot be there due to another emergency, but how many people may take temp without knowing to hold tight due to the action of a sphincter muscle or to place the probe slightly off centre as not to take the temp of faeces' rather than the body, or taking the pulse and knowing you can compress the artery against a bone to feel the beat and that will guide you as to where you can take it and a simple thing like do not place your thumb on the area or else you are feeling your own pulse and yes I know it may sound mudane to a more experienced person but we have all had to be corrected at some point

What brushes are used where and how, we all have raised our eyebrows at someone using a curry comb on the horses face yet who comes across and helps the new owner and show them their horse wincing at every stroke, we only know what we know and often new owners feel stupid or have worries about who do they ask but we all have been there at some point

Having the basic understanding of how tack fits is crucial for your horse's well-being, we often spend thousands on a saddle without considering how important girth and bridle fit is,

Having basic first aid knowledge for your horse is often the catalyst in how you react in an emergency or even to know whether it’s a vet call or can you handle it, I think there is not one horse owner that has seen their horse having choke and ringing the vet in a panic having a meltdown despite the vet reassuring you and only to find the horse is fine by the time the vet comes

Feed according to work, weight, age, etc

Behaviour and how to be safe in a situation where you once calm horse may be behaving out of character, complacency often leads to owner injury, so simple things like tying your horse up while applying a poultice may save you from getting knocked over if the horse moves, or having a competent handler who is aware of both you and your horses safety

Listen I am the most calm person you will meet if you and your horse needs help but as my vet will tell you I am an absolute neurotic mess when dealing with my own, apparently I thought I was talking to him normal but his version was probably a gibbering wreck on the end of the phone, so we all have those moments that is completely normal

The biggest issue is why people do not ask questions is because of fear of looking stupid or being judged but we were all there once and we are still there in the now, often when I do webinars I ask does anyone have a question and a wall of silence is reciprocated and I know people have questions because I always do but often hold back in case I get It wrong but no question is a stupid question and I love it when someone asks something and often if I don’t know it sends me on that learning curve

So, if you have a question ask it, go and do a first aid course so you learn in a calm environment to help you in a crisis moment remain calm and in control, know your horses normal and trust your gut and do not be dissuaded from what you feel

Learning the basics is not dumbing down its that first step into a whole new world

Learning should be just as enjoyable as achieving the goal, and those who are teaching must always remember they were once a student xx

And yes i wrote 7 bines Instead of 7 bones but just goes to show we all make mistakes 🤣

Does this sound familiar?

You’re endlessly caring for your horses, but forget to do something for yourself.

You say, “maybe next year,” every year.

But what if next year could be the year you finally invest in yourself, and your future?

You deserve that.

❗ Don’t forget you can save £200 off the cost of your course if you book NOW! The courses won’t be the same price again so this is the perfect time to finally say yes ❗

What sets our training apart? 💬

It’s not just another equine course, it’s a pathway that’s been carefully designed around real lives and real people.

Because we know that most of our students aren’t 18-year-olds with unlimited time.

They’re horse owners, parents, business owners, full-time workers, people who already juggle a lot but still have that spark inside them that says “I want more.”

💫 Small group learning: You’ll never feel like just another face in the room. Every session is personal, with tailored feedback and space to grow your confidence.

💫 Tailored teaching: We celebrate the fact that everyone learns differently. Whether you’re a visual learner, hands-on, neurodiverse, or somewhere in between, we meet you where you are.

💫 Flexibility: Life happens. Kids get sick, horses lose shoes, work runs late. Our course is built to bend with you, not break your schedule.

💫 Support for the long haul: You’re not just supported while you study. We offer guidance before, during and after qualification, whether that’s finding your first clients, setting up a business, or just a bit of reassurance when imposter syndrome creeps in.

It’s more than a course. It’s a community, one that believes in inclusivity, in encouragement, and in helping you build a future that truly fits your life.

Whether you want to grow your equine business, start a brand-new career, or simply help your own horses feel their best, we’ll help you make it happen.
