Tara C Mebane, CSF, EM/MT, EEMFR

Certified saddle fitter and equine bodyworker (sports massage, myofascial release, craniosacral therapy techniques) and classically trained rider. Tara has over 250 hours of study in English Saddle Fitting and Flocking from one of the most comprehensive courses of study available. Taught by Mike Scott, a Society of Master Saddlers certified saddle fitter, who is also a human and equine massage therapist with over 25 years of experience, anatomy, and an understanding of how the horse moves, were major points of emphasis in the program. Continuing education is important, so Tara apprentices as schedule permits under Mike himself, other graduates of Mike's certification program, saddle companies, and other equine professionals (vets, chiropractors, etc). Tara is also a rider and trainer herself, and understands the need for appropriately fitting tack for both the horse and rider.

There are still some open dates so reach out if you’re area isn’t listed, some dates I’m waiting on confirmations. I will be constantly updating this list. If a date is posted and then removed, it’s because it is full:

I have been getting A LOT of requests lately to start teaching biomechanics and classical riding principles/foundation as well as training rides again, so I’m working on a way to offer that. It falls in line with my whole horse approach and utilizes all of my skill sets. I can do this in clinic formats, individual sessions, etc so if you or your barn are interested, just send me a message

Unleashed the herd into the rest of their domain today, they were getting cramped and bored in their intro paddock. There was a little galloping around but thankfully good choices were made by all 🙏👏🫣😂

This is what happens when you charge another horse on pile of hay and slip and bust your ass.

This is also why you MUST keep your horse either on a chiropractic schedule OR contact your chiropractor when you KNOW your horse has taken a fall. Horses do dumb s**t all the time, I was able to watch this happen and fortunately this was like days before her scheduled appointment. But this is why I do keep mine on a schedule, they do dumb stuff I miss and sometimes the trauma can be enough to really jam them up. This was subtle.

Glimmer made the move to La Casa de Mebane this weekend, I had to repair that fence 3 times within the first 20 min of her being here, but it made it through the night. I threatened Aztek I’d take his blanket off so he could feel the heat on the top line if he didn’t stop and he did, he loves being blanketed 😂. He and Glimmer became instant besties.

Due to the weather, my appts today (saddle fittings) were rescheduled, so I have last minute availability for bodywork or saddle fittings that are indoors/covered 😁
