Equine Pilates™ — A Life-Changing Approach to Equine Wellness
Created by Amanda “Minnie” Griffiths | Established 2021
From a young age, horses were my world. After years in the corporate world, I returned to my roots in 2014 when I was gifted a thoroughbred mare, Molly, by the trainer who first introduced me to racing.
In 2016, Molly was diagnosed and treated with Kissing Spine. By 2021, her condition was declared untreatable. Devastated but determined, I began studying equine massage to help ease her discomfort. That’s when everything changed.
As a specialist Pilates Instructor with 16+ years’ experience in human rehabilitation, I had a lightbulb moment: what if I applied the same proven principles to horses?
I developed a tailored Equine Pilates™ programme — combining stretch, mobilisation, and core exercises — and worked with Molly every day. Within months, the results were astonishing. My vet, once doubtful, encouraged me to ride her again. Today, Molly is fit, strong, pain-free, and back in full work. She’s my miracle.
Why Equine Pilates™?
Whether your horse is an elite athlete, a happy hacker, or recovering from injury, this method works.
✅ Builds core strength
✅ Enhances flexibility and balance
✅ Improves comfort and performance
✅ Supports injury prevention and recovery
Since 2022, I’ve been running hands-on workshops for horse owners and therapists — teaching them how to incorporate Equine Pilates™ into their routine. You’ll leave with the tools and confidence to transform your horse’s wellbeing in just minutes a day.
