Lorre is currently working on a new
certification in the Masterson Method –
Intergrated Equine Performance
Bodywork. This bodywork was developed by
Jim
Masterson, who has used this proven method on horses of all kinds, from
horses in our
backyards to those competing in the Nation’s and World Cups. In 2006 and 2008, Jim was
invited to the World Equestrian games with the U.S. Endurance Team. Jim teaches seminars
and clinics all over the
States and even abroad. Jim was invited
in 2008 to present at
Equitana Asia Pacific and also the Equine Affaire in
2009. To learn more about Jim Masterson
and the Masterson Method please visit www.mastersonmethod.com.
Lorre started this arduous process in Nov ’09
with a weekend seminar and realized she really wanted to learn more. The next step was certification. She attended a 5-day intensive certification
class in Mar ’10. Currently Lorre is
working on her required 40 case studies. She will head to Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA in early September
for another 5-day class and God willing – final certification in the Masterson
Method.
For
Lorre, discovering the Masterson Method has solidified her equine
bodywork. By recognizing and following a
horse’s neurological response to touch, the
Masterson Method focuses on releasing tension in key junctures of the
horse’s body that most affect performance.
Lorre has intergrated the Masterson Method into her current bodywork regimen,
achieving a highly effective bodywork session.
A key for Lorre with the Masterson Method has been focusing on the
horse’s response and discovering she is purely the fascilitator. She helps the horse find the release. Another key has been that with this work the
lightest of touch sometimes elicits the biggest releases.
Lorre hopes, upon completion of her
certification, to stay connected in some way to the Masterson Method crew,
possibly doing some teaching with them in the future. Discovering the Masterson Metthod has served
to increase my knowledge, my compassion, and my connection to these incredibly
intuitive creatures.
Thank
you Jim and the entire Masterson Method crew!!!
