  • Jo-Ann Wilson’s clients range from international competitors to pleasure horses of all breeds and disciplines. She was the sports therapist for horses and riders on the US Equestrian Team’s Eventing Squad, winners of the Individual Gold and Team Bronze Medals at the 2000 Olympic Games in Australia, has served athletes at the 2003 Pan Am Games and has helped prepare horses for the World Cup, World Games and multiple Olympics.

    Endorsement for Jo- Ann Wilson’s DVD A Course in Equine Sportsmassage

    It is my pleasure to recommend Jo- Ann Wilson’s DVD A Course in Equine Sportsmassage. The clarity of material and instruction is excellent and accessible to both the equine student and horse owner. We have instituted this DVD as part of our curriculum at Johnson & Wales University’s Equine Studies Program in our Equine Physiology and Sports Therapy course. The students have been able to apply some of the basic massage techniques outlined by Jo-Ann in their laboratory sessions.

    Your DVD is a very good educational documentary. The photography, the horses, and the people are all great. Everything about it is great! It is interesting, it moves, and is of the highest quality. My neighbor, who is not a horse person, watched it and was fascinated. It was fun to see myself in it and what I had to say. I think it is absolutely terrific. Hat’s off to you Jo-Ann.
