TRH™ MASTERY PROGRAM

“The Reflective Horse Mastery program is unlike any other I have encountered in the world of equine-guided healing and therapy. The experience that Cass has created breaks free from any formulas or techniques so that participants can fully drop into their bodies and become present to their own deeper truth and knowing - both in regards to the guiding power of horses and in life and relationships beyond this partnership. Throughout the program, I have grown so much as an individual and a facilitator, as well as making some life-long friends and collaborators. And best of all, I have uncovered the deep connection with my horses that I have long been seeking.”

- Emily Anderson, Embodying Wild

The Reflective Horse® Mastery Program is a unique education program applying the principles of Equine Guided Empowerment® developed and utilized by Cassandra Ogier during her extensive career as an equine guided facilitator. Students have the opportunity to develop equine guided facilitation and insight-based coaching skills with a foundation in somatic, trauma-informed processing, through hands-on coursework and mentorship condensed into an eight-month period. 

Expanding the reach of The Reflective Horse® community and philosophy, TRH Mastery Program seeks to guide and cultivate students to become grounded, informed and compassionate facilitators, who have embodied Equine Guided Empowerment® and Somatic Reprogramming®, enabling them to serve and uplift their own communities.  Cassandra’s pioneering approach to equine-guided facilitation, immersed in the living intelligence of wild and free-roaming horses in nature, breaks new ground in partnering with horses to support personal realization and embodied transformation through experiential insight-based feminine principles.

Moving away from traditional models that tend toward subjugation and control of the horse that have characterized equine therapy over the last decade, Equine Guided Empowerment® is rooted in the concept of free beings — horses, and humans — joining together in empowered partnership to achieve awareness, somatic regulation, spiritual insight and personal liberation.

TRH™ Mastery program is segmented into three immersive 5-6 day in-person modules and supplemented through inspriational guest webinars, exceptional facilitation and hands-on coaching with Cassandra & TRH faculty to ensure that the experience brings a grounded understanding of Equine Guided Empowerment® from the inside out.  The result is an embodied, lived experience of the practice and the means by which each facilitator can apply their unique individuality to their professional life and work.

Module 1

With the prerequisites and applicant acceptance complete, students enter Mastery not at the beginning, but already activated. Supported by six pre-module Mentorship webinars, Module 1 moves directly into facilitation. Over five days, students learn to create a safe container, attune to herd communication, and begin practicing Somatic Reprogramming® as a group. Insight-based facilitation anchors the module, teaching students how slowing down, grounding, and deep listening allow the horses to guide clients toward their own inner wisdom.

Module 2

Module 2 strengthens the somatic, relational, and trauma-informed foundations essential for ethical, attuned facilitation. Through advanced teachings on nervous system dynamics, pacing, trauma-informed language, and group field awareness, students enter prepared to work with greater nuance. The immersion focuses on reading individual and collective somatic cues, navigating neutrality and attunement, and holding complexity with steadiness and humility — always in partnership with the free-roaming herd.

Module 3

Module 3 invites students into the metaphysical dimension of this work: ritual, energetics, feminine principles, ancestral wisdom, and the art of sacred container-building. Over six days, students integrate all prior learning while designing and facilitating a guest-invited Practice Client Day, witnessing the impact of the work in real time. This final module refines the subtle skills of tracking energy, naming truth, and guiding expanded states of awareness. Students graduate equipped to facilitate Somatic Reprogramming® with depth, clarity, and devotion to the horses and the sacred field.
