Meet Kaylie

As a child you could often find Kaylie 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, balance and strength in their mind and bodies.

Her career started as an assistant trainer at a large dressage sales barn where she received her USDF Bronze Medal, earned scores up to 75% at 1st level and won multiple show hi-score awards. She regularly rode 8 horses a day - from just started young horses to proven FEI competitors. She discovered just how common it was for horses of all levels to struggle with physical and mental tension. She then began seeking alternative approaches and tools to address the whole horse. This includes barefoot hoof trimming, equine bodywork, classical in-hand work and breathwork.

This journey includes:

• 3 yr live in apprenticeship with Alexis Martin-Vegue - a USDF gold medalist, “r” judge and rider biomechanics coach

• 200 hour trauma informed yoga teacher training in Costa Rica

• 1 yr apprenticeship for The Balance Through Movement Method

• Certification in Equine Bodywork through Equinology.
