Saxon Alexandra - Actuality Equine
I have been caring for horses and asking questions about the world we live in from a young age. When I left my research projects and my biochemistry neuroscience undergraduate program, I knew that I was making more space for horses and sunlight in my life. After spending four years working on the eventing circuit, I witnessed the pitfalls of training shortcuts and equipment misuse firsthand. Through my academic studies and my personal interest in dressage theory and biomechanics, I discovered an effective and long-lasting manual bodywork modality called Structural Integration which reorganizes connective tissues and promotes the restoration of healthy movement patterns. As an advanced Equine Fascial Integration Therapy (EFIT) practitioner, I am able to combine my love for horses with my pursuit for scientific truths in equine anatomy, biomechanics, behavior, and sports performance.
I have moved through my own structural integration series and into post-series focused work with a handful of professionals who each have a unique approach. The changes in my riding, my balance, and my relationship with my body have been profound. I realized early in my series that if I was going to make lasting changes in the experience of equine athletes, then their humans would need the same attention.
