GET STARTED NOWThe world needs more caring hands and hearts.
Horses need us humans to catch up to what they already understand on a deep and meaningful level. Equine bodyworkers are becoming more and more in high demand as horse owners and trainers begin to comprehend how extremely beneficial this intimate hands-on work is for the body, mind, and spirit.
Equine massage and bodywork is SO much more than just a technique to sooth musculoskeletal tension. It brings about connection, is a witness to trauma on an intimate basis, and can help a horse live fully in her body.
If you have a desire for this work ~ The equine world is waiting for you! JOIN US to start your amazing journey and make a difference for horses and their humans!"

"When I was researching the program I took the "life-changing" comments with a grain of salt but I know what they mean now. Not only do I feel like I have so much more knowledge as a professional and an amazing education after the course I am a healthier, happier and more centered person and I feel like I have a much more clear grasp on my goals and priorities as a person. Thank you so much for building this wonderful journey and being there for all of us as we go through it, my life won't ever be the same in the best possible way."
Madi, Lexington, KY / New Orleans, LA
I really loved this program. Working at my own pace was tough because I'm a procrastinator, but as soon as I opened a module, I couldn't stop because they were all so interesting!
My coaches were so informative and helpful! Couldn't ask for better!!
-Lisa, British Columbia, Canada
"The months going through this course of study with School AIT have been life changing for me. The online option gave me the incredible opportunity and ability to go through top level training and education when I would not otherwise be able to attend in person for this level of training.
Not only do I have a solid foundation of education and understanding of all the intricacies of our beloved equines, it is combined with a invaluable dive into a plethora of key modalities and principals that provide critical skill sets in the journey of providing top quality equine bodywork. All of that, combined with amazing teaching and support all along the way, makes this a 5 star, highly recommended school in my experience.
-Shana, Texas
Overall I found this program to be effective and highly educational. It was well organized and I had support throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend this program to anyone interested in equine bodywork!"
-JoAnn, Kansas
"This course was wonderful and the instructors did a fabulous job of answering questions and concerns as they arose in a very timely way. I originally picked this course after listening to Kim speak on a few podcasts. The immediate energy connection and feeling of “home” to me was unlike any other. I looked at a lot of other schools and listened to a lot of other instructors…School AIT just felt like where I belonged and I’m so grateful for this amazing experience."
-Jamie, Washington State
This journey has been so affirming to my decision to peruse a career in the horse world. I have learnt so much and truly enjoyed every moment. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity and I am so happy that I got to meet the incredible Kim!
-Lydia, South Africa

We are here to help you achieve your dream career in Equine Massage & Bodywork!
I read once that if you want to write a book, you should write the book you want to read. Taking this advice, I have spent over ten years creating the equine bodywork course(s) I would want to take while keeping within rigorous standards. All this information and training was not available in any one program when I first imagined such a gratifying career and there were few coaches to guide me.
When I am performing bodywork on horses, there is SO much more going on with them than I could possibly put into categories, theories, or techniques. Although I always feel an awesome surge of validation when a horse awards me with what we call a “release” (yawning, stretching, licking and chewing), I somehow know that isn’t the full story. When I am deeply tuned in to the energy, I almost sense the horse will offer the “release” just to help me through the energetic moment; as if to encourage me along. So, I went deeper, learning from every avenue I could – especially the horse. In developing this program, my goal is to help students learn how to “feel”, gain empathy, and mostly to believe in themselves. I want to bring out that deep childlike depth and conviction which, to me feels like the same space that horses hold (and they are just waiting for us to catch up). This space has no rules or validation because it is nothing more than the present moment being shared between two souls. This is where magic happens.
The scientific approach to bodywork often felt cold and emotionally void to me; while the excited, “look she’s yawning” as the end answer to what is going on felt very shallow. I wanted to offer a deeply rich and intuitive experience while still teaching the scientific basics of anatomy, physiology, kinesiology and pathology.
For a long time, I was afraid people would take what I have to offer as too “Woo-Woo”. Fortunately, my faith and an incredible business coach prevailed and The School of Applied Integrative Therapy ~ Equine essentially birthed itself. This program is not only nationally and Internationally approved, but weaves itself around stories from my own truly incredible journey with learning, growing, and intimately experiencing bodywork, natural and ancient healing practices, horses, and spiritual and personal development. Students not only gain knowledge, but also inner growth, depth of connection, and hopefully, a renewed belief in themselves and the world of equine. I would love to share this knowledge and deep experience with anyone wishing for such a valued and rewarding career or addition to their horsemanship journey. - Kim
