Equine Bodywork Professional Certification Bundle
The Equine Bodywork Professional Certification Bundle is designed for students who want to build a strong, diverse foundation in professional equine bodywork rather than learning just one modality.
This comprehensive program brings together six complementary courses—Equine Massage, Equine Craniosacral Therapy, Equine Kinesiology Taping, Animal Neuromyofascial Release (ANMR), Creating Flow, and Business 101—to help you develop both your hands-on skills and the professional foundation needed to work with clients.
Build a Broader Professional Toolbox
Throughout your training, you’ll explore equine anatomy, palpation, massage and soft-tissue techniques, craniosacral work, kinesiology taping, neuromyofascial techniques, movement and body awareness, practitioner-animal connection, and professional practice.
Most importantly, you’ll begin learning to look beyond a single technique and consider the individual horse in front of you.
Flexible Online Learning with Hands-On Experience
The program combines online, self-paced education with hands-on practical work, assignments, case studies, and instructor feedback, allowing you to develop your skills while working with real horses.
Earn Multiple Professional Certifications
Rather than receiving only a general certificate for completing a bundle, you will work toward the individual professional certifications included in the program, giving you multiple credentials and a versatile toolbox of complementary modalities.
Whether you're preparing for a new career in equine bodywork or expanding an existing animal wellness practice, this bundle provides a comprehensive pathway for developing your knowledge, practical skills, confidence, and professional foundation.
Six courses. Multiple professional certifications. One comprehensive equine bodywork education.
Six Courses. Multiple Professional Certifications.
Your $3,400 tuition includes six complementary courses designed to help you build a broader professional foundation in equine bodywork, practitioner development, and business.
Equine Massage Certification
Build your foundation in professional equine bodywork through anatomy, palpation, assessment, and hands-on massage techniques. Learn how to evaluate the horse, work with major muscle groups, and structure a thoughtful massage session.
Equine Craniosacral Therapy Certification
Explore a gentler approach to bodywork through craniosacral and fascial techniques, assessment, subtle palpation, and release work. Develop greater sensitivity to the horse's responses and the interconnected nature of the body.
Equine Kinesiology Taping Certification
Learn taping principles, practical applications, safety, preparation, and technique. Discover how kinesiology tape can complement hands-on bodywork and provide support beyond the session itself.
Animal Neuromyofascial Release (ANMR) Certification
Learn Dr. Angel's specialized Animal Neuromyofascial Release technique, developed to address soft-tissue and neuromyofascial patterns while considering compensation, movement, and the animal as a whole.
Creating Flow
Develop greater practitioner awareness, observation, connection, and responsiveness. Learn to work with the individual animal rather than simply following a rigid sequence of techniques.
Business 101
Learn how to begin turning your education into a professional practice through business foundations, client management, documentation, marketing, and professional considerations.
This is more than a collection of individual courses.
Together, these six programs help you develop a broader toolbox, stronger hands-on skills, and a more complete professional foundation for working with horses and their owners.
How One Horse Turned Into Eight
See how Anna Keever used her equine bodywork education to help horses, build trust, and begin growing her professional practice.
In this student testimonial, Anna Keever shares how her training in Equine Massage, Equine Kinesiology Taping, and Equine Craniosacral Therapy helped transform not only the way she works with horses, but also the opportunities she began receiving as a practitioner.
After Anna began applying her new skills with one horse at a local barn, the horse's owner was pleased with the experience and word began to spread.
What began with one horse grew into eight regular equine clients at the same barn.
Anna's experience illustrates something important about building an equine bodywork practice: developing your hands-on skills is only part of the journey. When horse owners see the care you put into your work and value the experience you provide their horses, those relationships can lead to referrals and new opportunities.
Why Anna's Story Matters
Anna didn't limit her education to a single technique. By studying massage, kinesiology taping, and craniosacral therapy, she began developing a broader bodywork toolbox that allows her to approach each horse as an individual.
That same philosophy is at the heart of the Equine Bodywork Professional Certification Bundle: giving students exposure to complementary modalities while developing the knowledge, practical skills, and professional foundation needed to begin working with horses and their owners.
Your first horse may be the beginning of something much bigger.
Build your skills. Gain hands-on experience. Develop your professional toolbox.
