Holistic Horse Membership

a space for those who want to take a holistic approach to their horse

does any of this sound like you?

• I really want to ride and train my horse, but I’m constantly afraid of doing the wrong thing.

• I want to be kind to my horses, but I don’t want them to be spoiled.

• I want to ride, but I’m constantly worried that I may be causing my horse pain.

• I want to ride but I get so anxious that sometimes I don’t even get on.

• Sometimes I think I should ask questions on Facebook groups, but the comments are just so vicious they make me feel worse than ever.

• I want to make sure my horse has the best life possible, but sometimes all the information out there seems so overwhelming and disjointed!

• I read about kissing spine, and thoracic sling, and hoof angles and track systems and they’re all so important, but there’s so many contradictory ideas…. I can’t get my head around how to put them together.

• I’m never sure if my horse’s behaviour is from pain, or training, or totally normal, or what!

• I want to know what I’m looking at, I want to be able to do something for myself and my horse without always having to call in someone else and have them tell me what to do.

• I want to learn about so many things, but it feels like I’m just joining endless groups, classes, courses and methodologies… one for my horse’s behaviour, then their body, then my body… then once I do that I’m left trying to put them together on my own.

• I just want to be surrounded by people who lift each other up. No drama, or competition or judgement. I want that supportive friend group that I’ve always dreamed of.

what’s included:

• Access to a private, supportive group of like-minded horse lovers who are trying to do the right thing by their horses and who can ask and answer questions in a supportive, non-judgemental way.

• Monthly live trainings, from Keira Byrnes on all sorts of topics - you can request future topics!

• Monthly trainings from special guests - the first is Dr Lucy, a holistic vet from Sunshine Coast Veterinary Acupuncture, others include farriers, bodyworkers, dressage trainers, positive reinforcement trainers etc. Members may also request guests they would like to learn from!

• Monthly live Q+A calls where you can ask questions specific to you, your horse, something you’ve recently heard, or “ask for a friend”. Questions can be live on the call, but they can also be submitted prior (even anonymously) if that’s best for you.

• A training library of Keira’s past masterclasses and programmes (well over $500 in value!) as well as all recordings of our live calls.

• Access to special events, trainings, and discounts (sometimes even free tickets) to other programmes and classes.

• Monthly prizes of products or services drawn during each live training call!

your mentor:

Hey, my name is Keira Byrnes!

My whole life has revolved around horses, and over the years my ideas, methods and modalities have shifted as I’ve learned new things, and been mentored by new people. I pride myself on my ability to take in vastly different perspectives and integrate them into something more cohesive.

At the moment my focus is upon holistic equine rehabilitation, bodywork and consulting for well-being and performance. This looks like private sessions both in person and remotely, as well as in-house rehab options. This is in addition to retraining racehorses, competing my own horses and I’m currently studying to become a veterinarian.

All of this means that my in-person rider coaching and mentorship is taking a back seat. Hence, this membership. I still want to be able to mentor the humans - because we all know they are truly the key to the horses’ wellbeing - but in a more time-efficient way. But, if you don’t know me, it begs the question… why would you want me as a mentor or coach anyway?!

Amongst other things, here are the cliff notes about me:

• Competed in many disciplines (below) but my “claim to fame” was competing at CCI5***** level at the Australian International Three Day Event four years in a row on my OTTB, “Fox Hill” with a 5th and 7th placing.

  • Also competed in GP showjumping, medium level dressage, showing, 40km endurance rides, pony club events to zone levels in all disciplines and state level eventing

• QOTT Acknowledged Retrainer of horses retiring from racing - and having done this for many years prior to this programme!

• Coaching riders of all ages, levels and ambitions (from 3 year olds in a riding school, to EAL, to adult riders, to ambitious young riders, to FEI level competitors) for 22 years.

• Qualified as a human chiropractor with the ambition of becoming an equine chiropractor, specialising in rider biomechanics and injury rehab.

• Completed a Masters of Research with a thesis studying the efficacy of my own functional movement programme. Also have two other research studies published in peer-reviewed journals.

• Qualified in many equine (and human!) bodywork modalities including therapeutic acupuncture, craniosacral and biodynamic craniosacral therapy, Reiki, dynamic neuromuscular stabilisation, TTouch, bush flower remedies and others.

• Qualified in holistic counselling, EFT technique, meditation teacher, and completing yoga teacher training.

All of this is to say that I truly sit on “all” sides of the fence. I believe that everything has it’s place - the science, the “woo woo”, the body, mind, spirit, the horse-human connection… all of it! Hence Synergy and Freedom - the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and when we harmonise those, we create freedom.
