12-Week Transformation
“Just wanted to share - vet was out to do chiro and e-stim acupuncture today and was very impressed with how good his topline is looking. She also said his flexibility has improved too. All of the exercises are paying off… We actually got a REAL belly lift today!! Of course, I didn't hit record on my phone - but there were was a witness. My friend was impressed - she said the exercises must be paying off and that he seemed stronger in his core… I feel like he's definitely carrying himself so much better!” - Meghan G.

“Yesterday he picked up the lope from a WALK. He's literally never done that under saddle… He's becoming the horse I knew he could be. Him being a barrel horse just seems SO much more possible now… It's insane, l've been through like 3 different rehab programs before and it's so frustrating because I knew something was missing! Glad I found you!!” - McKenzieMae B.

“This program is worth doing it, because you have someone who helps you on the way. That you think you have to ride every day or do really hard exercises to see results but that’s not true - it’s about the composition of exercises you do. And here you really get a good program.” Lara-Sophie L.
12-Week Transformation
“I knew her way back to riding was going to be slow and steady since she had been off for so long but I'm surprised to see how fast she progressed throughout this program. It's absolutely worth it, even if you think your horse is in shape. She has definitely gotten stronger. She doesn't trip nearly as much. The first time I rode her, I could tell the difference. She's not as choppy. She is choosing to stand more even, less with her hind right under her and her left front out in front.” - Carissa B.
12-Week Transformation
“At first I thought she just had a real bad “mare attitude” but it was her telling something was wrong and I feel like I am more in tune with her and can tell if the slightest thing is wrong. I’ve put the horse first… She is standing square on her own and she’s not dragging her hind end as much. In the saddle I can feel her using her body properly. She’s still not ready to be turning barrels and recovering from the set back but I am excited for her future!... Honestly the taping really surprised me. I didn’t realize how much it could help her out especially with her SI and stifle issues! Also the grounds poles I knew they were a training aid but didn’t realize how much body work it does for the horse… You were with me every step of the way with any questions I had and if you recommended something for her you made sure it was in a price-friendly budget. I was a little skeptical at first with it being virtual but I would definitely take the course again!” - Bri J.
12-Week Transformation
“She is standing basically perfectly square following hind end exercises… We also completed a 1.5 mile walk today all around the property with only one spook… She was overall very relaxed today, very chill, I'm gonna try to take her on longer walks” - Sidney C.
6-Week Transformation
“The Michelle Method helped me and Dolly significantly improve her movement and hind end engagement. It was the most perfect compliment to my riding lessons and training, unlocking the full potential that Dolly had. She’s 14 years old and needs some support to make sure her body is as feeling good with the new work. Previously she was not able to engage her hind end and was not balanced, especially in the canter. Her canter has completely transformed and is honestly so dreamy to sit now!... She’s way more balanced in and out of the saddle. She has more push from behind and is willing to stand square and not pop her right hind out… Definitely changed my ideas around work with her. It’s not all about riding there needs to be a level of maintenance on the ground to ensure she’s feeling 100% and ready to work… Communication in this program has been amazing! Michelle was always willing to make changes as needed and accommodate for both of us.” - Michelle H.
6-Week Transformation
“The variety in this program is great. It holds you accountable and it did help my mare feel better. It will also help motivate you to keep going through winter… The different ways you use poles blew my mind… She is standing more square and has less stiffness in her neck… I have more grace for her.” - Celsey L.
6-Week Transformation
“I’m so proud of him, we just had our best ride yet today in sooo long. He was so excited to work and he was so heavy in my hands and taking contact like a champ instead of uptight and hollow when I ride he was zooming in the 20 meter circles, he’s just really loving life… He has been a complete different horse in the saddle. We have been able to learn things and do more exercises in rides, hes just so happy… Hes finally doing belly lifts without shifting of acting uncomfortable!” - Hannah H.
4-Week Transformation
“Great explanations and visuals on exercises were great!... Understood more of what it takes to strengthen hind end and topline.” - Brianna G.
4-Week Transformation
“The chiropractor is super happy with him and overall he said he is so so much better… He is going great with exercises. I took him eventing last weekend and he was fantastic… Very excited to be out again. He felt great and was happy to take a long spot which he was struggling with before and now is better… He never gets the right lead but now he is better and he got the right strides for a double which he was also struggling with before!” - Zoe G.
4-Week Transformation
“He was great today. I tried to really work on finding the tension points in his neck and work on both sides before we rode. Primarily just tried to work on bending since he's still twisted up like a pretzel, but I'm really happy with where we are right now after being off for a week!… Canter transitions with my son today. They were great and he was super relaxed… Thanks for all your feedback, everyone keeps commenting about the improvement they're seeing!” - Tippy D.
4-Week Transformation
“He is coming along nicely!… He is standing square to eat a little snack. He normally would bend a leg and be at a diagonal… He trotted for a minute and without me asking, picked up a canter and was cantering quite well actually. It was nice to see. I also didn't see any stifle catching on either side.” - Tanya R.
