Welcome to the Dressage Today podcast sponsored by Equithrive. In this episode, Aviva and Stephanie talk about the mental health aspect of the horse industry and how their interviews with Nancy Lavoie and Dr. Jenny Susser can help start a conversation.

Welcome to the Dressage Today podcast sponsored by Equithrive. In this episode, Stephanie gives an update on her horse Nadia, and Aviva answers an Ask the L question about the correct amount of angle in shoulder in. Together they have an excellent conversation with Nancy Lavoie about her history in teaching dressage and how changing the conversation (both internally and externally) can help improve riding and the sport of dressage.  

Nancy Later Lavoie is a lifelong equestrian with a special love for dressage. In addition to being an accomplished competitor through the Grand Prix level and a USDF Bronze, Silver, and Gold Medalist, Nancy is an accomplished trainer, clinician, and life coach. After many years of training and managing top performance horses, Nancy has taken an avid interest in Performance and Mindset Coaching. She is certified through Tony Robbins Core 100 and Mindvalley's Evercoach Program as a Life Coach. Nancy also became certified in Mindfulness to bring more awareness and perspective to her training.  In addition to attending many High-Performance Seminars, Nancy has completed Dr. Zack Bush's Intrinsic Health Program. 

Nancy is passionate not only about proper training and horse care, but the overall quality of life of her clients and their horses. The shift from fulltime competitor to Performance Coach, although recent, is bringing Nancy a tremendous amount of fulfillment, and her clients continue to succeed not only at the shows, but in the arena of life. Nancy lives with her husband Matthew Lavoie in Rindge, New Hampshire.

Welcome to the Dressage Today podcast sponsored by Spalding Labs. Stephanie and Aviva start with talking about Stephanie’s recent trip to film the Adequan®/USDF FEI-Level Trainers Conference that was held just outside of Wellington. Then Aviva answers the question of: In first level can you switch between sitting trot and posting trot? 

Then together they talk to equine nutritionist and physiologist Dr. Debra Powell. 

Dr. Powell is a native of Charleston, SC. In 1984, she obtained a bachelor’s degree from Hampton University, 1992, a master’s degree from the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana, and 1999 her PhD from the University of Kentucky, with an emphasis in Equine Exercise Physiology and Nutrition.  She has been active in the equine industry and academia for over 20 years. Dr. Powell was an equine researcher and farm manager at the University of Kentucky. She was an associate professor at Ohio State University-Agricultural Technical Institute, being the first African American faculty member within this institution. She also taught at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College and Hocking College. Throughout her career, Dr. Powell has been an advocate for the promotion and increased diversity inclusion of minorities within the equine industry.

Because of her passion for animal welfare that goes beyond just traditional medicine, since 1999, Dr. Powell has owned and operated Powell Equine Canine Therapy Services, LLC (PECTS), a business that specializes in non-invasive therapies and nutritional consulting for equine and canine family members. This business allows her to work with local, national, and international clients. She has had two opportunities to work on horses at the Summer Olympic Games, once in Atlanta and the other in London. She hopes to return as one of the equine physiotherapists for the Olympic games in Paris. Dr. Powell believes in providing scientifically proven methods of alternative therapies for the benefit of the equine and canine family members.
