About this course
This course offers a comprehensive, experience-based approach to caring for horses through holistic and natural methods. Designed for horse owners, caretakers, and equine enthusiasts, it focuses on building long-term health, resilience, and wellbeing by addressing the whole horse—body, mind, and environment.
Across seven focused classes, learners will explore essential areas of equine care:
Nutrition – Understanding balanced diets, gut health, and natural supplementation to support immunity and vitality.
Hoof Care – Promoting strong, healthy hooves through proper maintenance and nutrition.
Dental – Maintaining dental health to ensure proper digestion and overall wellbeing.
Skeletal – Supporting structural health, movement, and injury prevention.
House Keeping for Horse Keeping – Creating a clean, safe, and stress-free living environment.
Alternative Healing – Exploring natural therapies and non-invasive approaches to health and recovery.
Heart Math & EASE – Fostering emotional balance, connection, and calmness between horse and handler.
By the end of this course, participants will have practical knowledge and tools to support their horse’s health naturally, prevent common issues, and promote a longer, healthier life.

Who this course is for
The course is designed for horse owners, caretakers and equine enthusiasts who want a whole-horse view of daily care — body, mind and environment. It is pitched at an intermediate level, so it assumes you already spend time around horses and are comfortable with the basics of handling and daily routines.
It is not a veterinary, farrier or dental qualification, and it is not a substitute for your own care professionals. If you are looking for a certification to practise on other people's horses, or for live coaching and feedback on your own horse, this is not that course.
