"5 Stars all the way! We are looking to open our own rehab and fitness facility and took Ciara's equine kinesiology taping course. It was AMAZING and Ciara is the BEST! Loaded with info, Ciara is a great teacher. She remains available even after the class for questions when you start practicing on your own. Highly recommend her classes!"
"I had a great time learning from Ciara! I can tell she is passionate about helping horses to feel and perform optimally AND to make sure her students are confident in applying tape, and why. I highly recommend her class!
"Highly recommend Sozo Equine!! Ciara is an amazing teacher, and the class is very in depth. I feel confident in the fact that I had a full understanding of the anatomy and taping applications once I had finished the course. I also appreciate her support and availability if any questions came up after the class, she was always willing to help"
