Concinnity Farm

Leah Astrup is gearing up to offer one last introductory Awareness Through Movement series this year!

These sessions are done via Zoom. You can participate live or enjoy the recording at your own convenience.

Find increased body awareness, improved coordination and ease of movement that you can carry through your day to day life. Or, for equestrians, you can carry it to the saddle.

I highly recommend all equestrians make Feldenkrais a regular practice as it compliments and supports our riding endeavors so beautifully 💙

You know sometimes I could just sit down and cry because I am so overwhelmed with gratitude that this is my life. The community we have built here is so special.

If you want to see people who truly love horses, you can find them here.

If you want to see people who are ever evolving and forever learning, you can find them here.

If you want to see horses worked with in a way that honors their spirit and individuality, you can see that here.

If you want to see humans worked with in a way that honors their spirit and individuality, you can see that here.

I could not have wished for a farm anymore special than this 💙

What an amazing day, my heart is FULL!

Our last clinic of the year is happening this weekend!

We will welcome back Deb Davies of Equine Self Expression Saturday and Sunday for two days of private lessons. 5 riders will take two lessons a day, giving auditors a wonderful opportunity to witness how each lesson builds to the next. Deb is an absolute wealth of knowledge and there tends to be a lot of information covered! Lessons are inspired and directed by what each horse/rider/handler pair needs :)

These are full days! We will start around 830am, take a quick lunch around 1230pm, and continue throughout the day with the last lesson starting at 6pm. Auditing is $75 per day, per person and can be paid directly to Deb when you arrive.

Looking forward to a wonderful weekend with like minded horse folks!

Please message me with any questions!

Just one of the many reasons why equestrians can benefit from making Feldenkrais a regular practice 💚

Most horses do not need you to do more, they need you to do less with a whole lot more clarity.

Help them be right, instead of always telling them they're wrong.

This morning I found myself thoughtfully reminiscing about my journey. This farm, the things that brought me here, and the future.

I put a lot of thought into the name of this farm...

"Concinnity is a noun that means the skillful and harmonious arrangement or fitting together of different parts to form a graceful, unified whole."

And at the time, I had horses at the forefront of my mind. I wanted to provide a space where horses could come together again. In mind, body and spirit.

But, as the years have passed and this community has grown, I've come to realize that before the horse, there is a human. It is that human that will be responsible for facilitating the healing of their horse. Another thing I have come to realize is that the human must first facilitate their own healing before they can facilitate the healing of their horse.

Existing between us and our horses is a space, a gap. One we often do not recognize is there. The space of our subconscious, where memory of every experience lives. Etched into every inch of our being. Injuries, trauma, relationships...all of it. It is the space that fosters our survival. Sometimes, for as brilliant and amazing as our survival mechanisms are, they're the very thing that is stifling so much of what we would love to achieve.

I like to think that this farm has become a place where people can work through that space. A place that facilitates and allows a deeper level of self discovery, awareness, and connection within the human...which they can then offer to the horse. That the universe has very intentionally led me to teachers, colleagues and friends that have all the things necessary to support people on their journey to a greater understanding of themselves.

Life and horsemanship are not so different.

So, when I see the name of my farm...I no longer think of just the horses, but the humans too.

It starts with us...here's to becoming more concinnous.

What a wonderful podcast episode with our very own Leah Astrup of Integrated Movement,LLC and the amazing Mary Debono of Debono Moves.

An important reminder of why it's so important to work on ourselves as riders. As well as a reminder of the beauty and value of both Feldenkrais and Applied Neurology. These modalities have the potential to be powerful tools for personal transformation, in life and in the saddle.

"Notice how much you did and do less next time"

We have all likely heard something similar in a riding lesson.

Do less...an idea that makes me ponder 🤔

How many know themselves intimately enough to be able recognize what they did and do less? When the instructor says, "There! Did you feel that?!". You nod, yes. Did you really? It's okay if you didn't. Maybe a better question is...can you? It's okay if you can't. Have you learned to feel and sense within yourself enough that learning in that moment is even an actual possibility? Learning to learn is a thing!

“Without learning to know ourselves as intimately as we possibly can we limit our choices.” - Moshe Feldenkrais

In a world that rewards maximum effort and exertion, we must be willing to rebel...for ourselves, for our horses. We must be willing to move so slowly that it's almost boring. We must be willing to pause, to take a moment between moments, to notice and integrate. We must be willing to breathe and let that breath fill and gently move our bodies.

"In order to recognize small changes in effort, the effort itself must first be reduced. More delicate and improved control of movement is possible only through the increase of sensitivity, through a greater ability to sense differences." - Moshe Feldenkrais

Every day, I am learning to do less, so that I can do more. I am grateful for mentors who facilitate that learning and have offered me opportunities for contrast.

Hey everyone!

I would like to ask you all for a little feedback.

This year, as the clinic season winds down, I would like to offer more things here at the farm. Some smaller, more casual opportunities to continue building on what we learned throughout the year. I mean we attend, we buy the books, we buy the equipment, we leave inspired, and then? So many of us rarely have a chance to utilize it, lets change that!

Here's the thing...there's options, lots of options and I want to know what you would be most interested in!

We have access to Leah who has a lot to offer - private Functional Integration sessions (hands on Feldenkrais work), live group ATMs (Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement), ZHealth, Franklin Balls, DeBono Moves.

What I can offer - Well, I am happy to support you wherever you feel like you need it. Finding neutral, groundwork, riding...lets play with it and see what we find.

Leah and I can work together. We can combine things. We can explore dynamic movement. Breath work. Without horses, with horses, on saddles on saddle stands, on the ground, on a horse...what would you want?

Your own horse? My horses?

Days of the week? Weekends are limited, so looking more at weekdays. Time of day?
