“Madison isn15 and has autism. She was a wonderful student, a real natural. Shown with Patience, a mare who was supposed to be euthanized at 9 in the morning on Sat. It’s a long dramatic story but there was an intervention and the mare was not only saved but was one of our superstar demo ponies all weekend at the clinic then given to this girl as a present. The whole story just melted our hearts. So I share with you because you’re part of it.”

I have just completed the weekend course and loved every minute. Jim and his team explained everything so clearly, we had lovely horses to work with and everything was so well organised. There was a perfect balance of theory, demonstration, and practice under supervision. Having seen some of Jim’s videos and read the beyond horse massage book prior, the weekend course definitely filled in many of my missing pieces and gave the opportunity to ask lots of questions to the real experts. It allowed me to cement my learning by clarifying different areas which in turn built my confidence. The Masterson team are great and really fun to work with yet so knowledgeable and competent. I’d highly recommend and can’t wait to move onto the next stage of learning as I can see that there’s still to much to discover and perfect! Most of all it’s so enjoyable to be able to give something back to the horses and see them responding to this light gentle yet powerful technique.
