The International Association of Equestrian Education gives its members the winning edge by providing online access to top equestrian professionals.
Vancouver, BC February 9, 2009 The International Association of Equestrian Education (IAEE) is a one-stop community and educational resource. IAEE is proud to bridge the gap between serious equestrian riders and top industry professionals to enhance learning and help achieve dreams. IAEE provides a much-needed, quality online educational resource for the equestrian industry, with a sophisticated virtual community unlike anything before.
"I am proud to announce the Grand Opening of the International Association of Equestrian Education," says Barbie Whitworth, President and Founder. "For years it was my dream to bring the very best professional minds together with all Hunter/Jumper/Equitation and Eventing enthusiasts who have the desire to learn how to be the best they can be." Barbie Whitworth, a Professional Rider and Trainer in the hunter/jumper sector of the equestrian industry for the past 30 years, is the visionary behind IAEE. As a highly competitive and successful professional, Barbie rode horses for owners and trainers throughout North America. After many years of experience in the equestrian industry Barbie became a USEF/EC Hunter/Equitation Judge in both the US and Canada. Barbie has coached athletes from the novice to the competition levels and was invited by the Canadian Equestrian Federation to participate in the first NCCP level 4 Coaching program in Canada.
"The IAEE has grown from an exciting concept to a full service Membership Equestrian Education Center at http://www.IAEECONNECT.com " says Whitworth. The IAEE is an international association commited to providing an affordable equestrian learning place with education and training opportunities that were often unavailable to many equestrians. Leading equestrian and sport professionals, who have willingly offered their expertise and time to this project, provide excellent training in the IAEE Education Center. "These professionals share my passion to help educate equestrians," explains Whitworth.

Susie’s approach to bodywork is based upon a fundamental understanding of how the horse interacts with its environment and task requirements. Biomechanical analysis provides the foundation of skeletal balancing, where mechanical restrictions that lead to muscular compensations are identified and alleviated, bringing the body back to balance and normal function is restored or maintained.
Susie states "Sharing this information is paramount to my work as a practitioner, as I believe in the dissemination of knowledge to further the good of all equines, from the elite athlete to the retired companion."
Even great horses are mortal and can suffer physical problems resulting from accidents, poor riding, structural issues, and more.
From race horses to leadline ponies, massage therapy done by a qualified professional gives you an unparalleled level of information. Proper bodywork can restore or maintain your horse's ability to function normally by alleviating stresses that negatively impact biomechanics. Working closely with veterinarians and hoof care professionals, Susie has helped many horses avoid potentially catastrophic or career ending injuries.
"You did what you knew how to do, and when you knew better, you did better" Maya Angelou.
