In Easier Movement, Happier Life: For You, Your Horses & Dogs, Feldenkrais® teacher, international clinician, and bestselling author Mary Debono shares insights, tips, and techniques to help you improve movement, mindset, and connection for yourself and your animals.
Each week, we explore topics like body awareness, flexibility, and balance, focusing on how these elements impact both you and your horse or dog.
