Symbiosis is founded upon the belief that the relationship with our horses should not only make them sounder of mind and body, but facilitates our personal growth as well. This does not come at the cost of performance, it improves performance.
“Symbiosis: A mutually beneficial relationship between two organisms”

Meet Kaylie Hanson
As a child you could often find her asking her parents two things - to spend more time at the barn and “Why?” about nearly everything. Her inquisitive nature and passion for helping horses and humans has led her to a holistic approach to training. She is passionate about helping horses and riders find softness, relaxation and balance in their mind and bodies. Her career started as an assistant trainer at a large dressage sales barn, where she discovered how many horses struggled with physical and mental tension. She then began seeking alternative approaches and tools. Her journey includes a two year apprenticeship with a USDF gold medalist and rider biomechanics coach; a trauma informed 200 hour yoga teacher training in Costa Rica; and a certification in Equine Bodywork through Equinology.
