In this video Karen answers questions from students about Moving Massage. Includes discussion about how this relates to high and low energy horses, how to do it while riding, how to use your intention during it, and more. You’ll also see an update with Quora.

Moving Massage Is such an important tool to have in your toolbox.

In the video Karen mentions the Dressage Naturally Audiobook. You can get that here: https://dressagenaturally.net/audiobook
