PILLAR ONE:
RELATIONSHIP TO CONNECTION
At BTMM, we emphasize the importance of a horse’s nervous system in how it relates to their relationship to connection as the foundation for their overall well-being.
This principle is our top priority in all aspects of our work.
PILLAR TWO:
CENTER OF BALANCE
Taking the relaxation and gentle activation found in Pillar One into finding core stability and developing the muscles necessary for self-carriage from the thoracic sling down through the hind end.
PILLAR THREE:
SPINAL INTEGRITY
Many horses tend to over-rely on their neck and back due to inadequate range of motion (ROM) in their limbs. This overcompensation can lead to a myriad of issues, including nerve dysfunction and dural torque resulting from compromised spinal integrity, as well as excessive wear and tear on joints, so this last pillar is focused on restoring just that.
Introducing...
The Balance Through Movement Methodâ„¢ Pathway
The horse world is filled with exercises, opinions, and training programs.
​
What has been missing is a clear pathway that captures development from a whole horse approach, and provides a structured, progressive system for both horse and handler to succeed.
​
The BTMM Pathway bridges the gap for equestrians from all walks of life. Through our proprietary system, we empower horse owners to cultivate a deeper understanding of how the equine body naturally organizes and develops, and give them the tools to help their horses become stronger, healthier, more comfortable, and more capable.​
This is development, demystified. This is the BTMM Pathway.
THE PATHWAY CURRICULUM
Because every horse deserves the opportunity to develop from a place of organization rather than compensation.
Every BTMM Pathway Member receives instant access to the NEW Masterclass & Foundations Course, including:
The BTMM Training Scale
Understanding the Natural Horse
Conformation Vs Posture
Nerve Compression
Nervous System Organization
The BTMM Pillars and the Anti-Gravity System

Quizzes to Deepen Your Understanding
Example Videos
Once members complete the Masterclass & Foundations materials, they can choose to book a proctor exam with a BTMM Professional to evaluate their horse's readiness to move to Pillar 1.
The BTMM Pathway provides education, progress tracking tools, and supportive community in one accessible monthly membership.

Once cancelled, you will lose access following the final day of your billing period. Due to the proprietary nature of our content, we do not offer refunds.
​
**A note about certification and pathway progression: Your active BTMM membership gives you access to the core member resources included in your plan, including the Masterclass & Foundations Course, Principles of Energy course, and other listed membership benefits. To continue progressing through the BTMM Pathway, both you and your horse must successfully complete the required proctor evaluations. These optional proctor exams are paid separately as one-time evaluation fees ($100-150 each) and are not included in the monthly membership price. Additional pathway content and certification-level resources unlock only after the required proctor steps have been passed. Active membership alone does not guarantee certification, passage of a proctor exam, or access to progression-based content.​
