Bodywork for Horse + Rider
Feel empowered with the tools and knowledge to embody mindful horsemanship.
Our Services: Elevate Your Horse’s Care
At Rhythm Equine, we’re here to support equestrians who are ready to take their partnership with their horses to new levels of health, trust, and performance. Our services provide expert guidance and tailored care to meet the unique needs of each horse and rider, allowing you to make informed, empowered decisions for your horse’s well-being.
Our targeted bodywork sessions go beyond surface-level relief, focusing on easing deep-rooted tension, improving mobility, and supporting overall physical recovery. Through techniques grounded in biomechanics and an understanding of each horse’s unique needs, we help address imbalances and restrictions in the body that may be holding your horse back. Each session is customized, whether your horse needs relaxation, increased flexibility, or support recovering from stress or injury.
When it comes to competitions, we understand the unique demands placed on both horse and rider. Our horse show support services provide tailored pre- and post-competition bodywork that prepares your horse to perform at their best and aids in their recovery afterward. We work with you to ensure your horse feels comfortable, balanced, and at ease, setting them up for peak performance and a smooth transition back to regular training. With each session, we support your horse’s well-being in the high-energy, often stressful environment of shows.
Our full-service packages provide continuous care for horses and riders, allowing us to monitor progress, address evolving needs, and provide a deeper, sustained impact. These packages are designed for equestrians seeking a holistic, long-term approach to wellness that considers both physical and emotional health. By offering combined services for horses and riders in customized bundles, we provide comprehensive, ongoing support that helps maintain harmony and well-being, ensuring you and your horse thrive together.
“Bodywork is more than just manipulating the muscles. It's about guiding the nervous system and mind into a more balanced state of being.
Sometimes the most change we can make to the body is simply not manipulating, but holding space for them to be exactly who they are in that moment.”
- Samantha Friesen

Our approach blends communication, empathy, and expertise to ensure both you and your horse feel seen, respected, and supported.

Hey, I’m Samantha!
THERAPIST + FOUNDER OF RHYTHM EQUINE
10 years ago I dove into my own journey towards mindful horsemanship. After many ups, downs, successes, and frustrations, I knew it was time to reach out a hand and support others along this journey.
I traded my life as a stay-at-home mama to help equestrians just like you who are seeking to develop a deep bond with their horse but are struggling with the process.
Focusing on self-awareness, biomechanics, and the mind-body connection, I help you build a consensual, working relationship with your horse.
