Out with the old...
Too many personal training and rider-fitness methods are focused on consciously controlling posture, emphasizing sensory 'awareness' or strengthening 'weakness' in your body...
Without understanding that the root cause of most compensation patterns and muscle dysfunction comes from deep inside the nervous system - in the unconscious part of your BRAIN. This is why they leave you feeling temporarily better, but with unpredictable results that don't last very long.
...in with the NEW!

"This unique approach combines the deliberate motor-output (movement) and real-time sensory-input (proprioception) of voluntary pandiculation to cause your brain to rapidly change its own sub-conscious patterns, fast.
This work, rooted in the principles of basic neuroscience, is light-years beyond anything else (yes, even Feldenkrais)!"

Who is Alissa, just what exactly IS Hanna Somatics, and why should I trust her to guide me on my horse-loving journey?
(It's a great question, I'm so glad you asked!)
I've been on a quest to find the secrets to becoming a better rider, mastering Feel and riding with less pain for as long as I've been in love with horses.
I’m a super nerd, a questioner, a researcher and a learning-addicted horse-lover, and I’ve spent decades doing the work. Reading all the books. Taking all the clinics. Trying different methods, following different gurus, across oceans and continents sometimes in my quest for answers.
Call me stubborn, but I just wasn't satisfied with answers like:
"It takes a lifetime..."
"Riding correctly is supposed to hurt, you'll get used to it."
or
"One day you'll just feel it."
I’ve studied the anatomy, biomechanics, horsonality, veterinary science, classical riding, bodywork, alternative modalities, natural hoof care, a bunch of top horsemanship programs (and the knock-offs). English. Western. Dressage. Liberty. R+...
I've got a bachelors degree in Equine Science. I've taught clinics all over the world. I co-teach the only practitioner certification training program for Equine Hanna Somatics®. I’ve studied heart-math, psychology and dance, therapeutic riding, yoga, human evolution, body building, endurance training, hypnosis, physiology and neuroscience…
And what it comes down to is that we are programmed, at a very basic nervous-system-level, to be athletic, pain-free and AGE WELL. It's easier than you'd think to bring back suppleness and fluid movement so we can easily and painlessly flow with the go and feel both super-confident and 'at one' - with a horse, in your sport, and inside your own skin...
BUT FIRST we have to become more connected to our own muscles and activate of the power of our incredible brains to self-regulate and un-learn the tension and compensations we've accumulated over our lifetime! I've helped hundreds of athletes and riders discover how.
I want to help you build that bridge between that dream life you put on the shelf… to you actually living it, starting, well, how about tomorrow?
