About Mary
The short version...
I’m a movement and mindset coach who loves helping horse and dog enthusiasts improve physical ability, emotional resilience and quality of connection between themselves and their animal companions.
I know first-hand what it's like to live with pain and limitation. I remember when it hurt to ride, hike, run or even sit.
Needless to say, I was often stressed and tired.
With the help of the Feldenkrais Method®, I stopped hurting and started really living. As my body improved, so did my thinking.
I gained confidence and made BIG decisions to create the life I dreamed of.
That's why I'm passionate about helping others feel good too. For over 30 years, I've been teaching people how to feel better than ever. In body and mind.
🐴And showing them how to help their horses, dogs and cats move easier and feel better too.🐶😺
As a Certified Feldenkrais® Practitioner and NLP Practitioner, I'm uniquely qualified to help you achieve mastery in your movement AND mindset, so you can live the life you've dreamed of.
As a best-selling, award-winning author and international clinician, I've been a featured presenter at equine and canine conferences, including Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA), Holistic Pet Health, Progressive Hoof Care Practitioners (PHCP), The Feldenkrais Summit and PATH Int'l.
On a personal note...
My husband Gary, our rescue dog Tony 🐶 and I live in a sweet little home near San Diego, California. Fun fact: hubby is a Feldenkrais® Practitioner too!
I had so much fun hiking and running with my bay quarter horse Breeze. You can read about our shenanigans here. Breeze came into my life as a badly abused rescue. We built an incredible bond of trust and connection through R+ liberty play. You can watch another short video of Breeze and me playing here.
Breeze learned how to hold a whip in his mouth and chase me with it in the span of 5 minutes. Yes, he was that smart! Sadly, my beloved Breeze passed away in June 2023. I miss him so much and I'm incredibly grateful for the 18 wonderful years we had together. ❤️🐴
