My name is Katie and I’m the head coach, naturopath, and buteyko breathing practitioner. I guide nervous system healing and authentic connection through breathwork, nature-based practices, and the wisdom of horses and plants.

Now that might sound a bit hippy for those of you that just came for riding lessons! But our work is steeped in the sciences of nervous system regulation, social engagement system activation, and movement and breath as medicine. Our horses gently guide you back to your inner sanctuary along with working with breath and our plant allies.

Through our riding academy, we support riders from their first lesson through to horse ownership, competition, or professional accreditation. Our approach emphasizes communication, rider balance, clear cues, and developing a harmonious partnership. From first rides to professional goals, we support equestrians in developing a joyful, balanced partnership working with horses, where riding becomes a shared language of connection through movement, breath and communication.

Sanctuary is our holistic health coaching program. We specialize in nervous system support including managing mood, concentration sleep, and neurodiverse support. Stress can take its toll and ravage our bodies leaving little for us to give in our family network and work life.

Combining naturopathy, buteyko breathing and connection work with our equine friends creates a unique environment to develop strategies to manage the inevitable stressors of life and provide the body with the nutraceuticals to maintain peak mental, physical, and emotional wellness. I do love myself a little biohacking.
