Speaker – Susanne Frank

Susanne has a degree in agriculture and a lifetime working with horses. She started her own livery yard in the mid 1980’s, eventually having 30 horses in her care: from thoroughbreds to cobs and everything in between. In this environment she had endless opportunities to observe different vets and practitioners at work and, importantly, to ride, teach and rehabilitate the horses being treated. This enabled Susanne to assess the results and ponder on the inter reaction of various modalities; to learn how to best help the horse and how to integrate her strengthening and suppling work with the treatments available. Susanne observed Masterson Method in use and was immediately drawn to this way of very softly working with the horses’ body language and responses to release tension throughout the body. This led her to training with Jim Masterson and becoming a practitioner in 2014.
