The Gap Between the Gap™ — where stress softens and clarity returns, in and out of the saddle this season.
The Gap Between the Gap™
energetic coherence for riders, horses, and the human heart
welcome to the gap between the gap™
where the field you create becomes the invitation your horse meets
where presence becomes the cue your horse can trust
there is a space between breaths
where the body unwinds its history,
the mind loosens its grip,
and the nervous system remembers itself.
horses live in this space effortlessly.
riders return to it through coherence —
not by forcing calm,
but by finding the pause that is uniquely theirs.
this is your blueprint of pause:
the moment your breath completes,
your ribs soften,
your attention lands —
and your horse feels you before you ask.
from this space, partnership arises:
when your nervous system becomes the steadier field,
your horse feels the pause before the aid,
and chooses to meet you there.
the work
i support riders through somatic breathwork, nervous-system regulation, and subtle awareness — so your internal rhythm becomes steady and readable.
your horse feels that before you ever “do” anything.
the threshold
before technique, before practice,
there is a moment when something inside you loosens —
and breath steps forward to lead.
a quieter exhale.
space unfurling through the ribs.
the body remembering the internal timing
your horse has been listening for all along.
the threshold is not a place you try to reach —
it emerges the moment you return to regulation, on purpose.
this is where your blueprint of pause reveals itself:
not a concept, but a felt moment
your horse can trust.
why this works
the alchemy of breath between rider and horse
in the shared field between human and horse,
breath becomes more than biology — it becomes signal.
horses feel everything:
your tension, your hesitation, your clarity, your collapse.
they read the nervous system
long before the mind speaks.
when your breath steadies,
your horse senses it first —
and the pause before the ask becomes clean.
this is where the shift begins:
• doing softens into allowing
• efforting dissolves into receiving
• reaction settles into presence
a regulated rider creates a regulated horse:
one rhythm.
one awareness.
one partnership.
and in that partnership, performance becomes trust made visible.
working with michelle reset my nervous system, transformed my riding, and deepened my partnership with my horse, opus. her presence is grounding, intuitive, and deeply healing.
as a lifelong equestrian, breathwork with her has been life-changing —
even opus breathes with me now.

click here to watch jenn's video - breathwork with michelle has completely changed how i ride and connect with my horses. the way it promotes relaxation, focus, and true harmony between rider and horse is undeniable. i’m excited to keep exploring this practice with her.
snippets from jenn’s video:
“…i just want to give you my thoughts about the breathwork i’ve been doing with michelle and how it’s helped me with my riding… every single lesson: remember to breathe… when i find myself in a new situation or i feel tension in my horse, the first thing i do is hold my breath—and that is the exact opposite of what we should do. my work with michelle has helped me tremendously in this manner.
before i mount my horse, i always check in with myself to make sure my breathing is controlled, slow, and connected with my heart rate. typically, this is done for me during the grooming and saddling process—it’s a great time to reconnect with my buddy, opus… he often mimics me with a long, verbal breath of his own.
during our ride, and with michelle’s expert guidance, i have focused on evening out my breath and breathing through my nostrils. as i do, i feel my horse relax beneath me. we’ve greatly improved our connection and our ability to perform… if your horse can feel a fly land on him, he can certainly feel the release of tension in your body.
please give michelle a call and try concentrating on your breathwork—you’ll be glad you did, and your horse will too…”

michelle deftly integrates technique, discipline, and inspiration into her classes. she creates an environment where students can safely challenge their mental and physical boundaries within a supportive group setting.
within a clearly structured format and steady dialogue, michelle avoids hype and instead uses relatable analogies and metaphors that often lead to real “a-ha” moments. this helps students adapt quickly within a limited timeframe, without tipping into a frenzied or defeated reaction to the task at hand.
her classes often include a wide range of experience levels and differences in anatomical and physiological knowledge. yet, whether or not feedback is requested, michelle consistently and expertly addresses individual form, technique, and the occasional mental block in support of each student’s success.
this is what makes her a genuine teacher. i highly recommend experiencing the environment she creates—and the personal progress you will discover within her wellness space.
michelle is fully embodied, i feel her pure presence: i feel so safe, so held, so supported by her. she is bold and brave with a willingness to walk me home to myself: she helps me see my truths and how to come back to my truth, instead of running to stories. the music was perfect, the cuing is MAGICAL, i loved ALL of the process. she is an absolute beacon of love and light.
The entire experience was magical. Michelle, I absolutely loved the entire experience: I felt my entire body engaged, I'm feeling energized mentally and spiritually. The change in music took me into different realms of myself.
I was so well curated and aligned with the support I needed.The breath session was incredible: I really enjoyed beginning the session in a co-creating space where we went to the root of what I needed to move energetically. The 3 different types of breathwork were very complimentary. I really appreciated the personally curated playlist, the mantra we co-created and the safe space container. Although I am very familiar with breathwork (I'm a Kundalini teacher), this experience was very powerful. I went into it feeling tired, scattered and finished feeling empowered, light and truly connected to my future self. Michelle is an incredible facilitator: she is so magical and so gifted. She is attentive, really tunes into the energy of the client and meets them there and is compassionate along the way. She has such wisdom to share as well. I am so grateful to have experienced these sessions with her.
Michelle is a natural talent, deeply intuitive, read my energy and supported me beautifully. I loved the different breath patterns and how transitioning between them felt. Very powerful. I felt so incredibly good afterwards. She knew what to say at the right time, was kind yet very professional. I am so grateful.
Michelle has beautiful energy, sparkles with love and creates a harmonious safe space for me: an experience of love, freedom, connectedness, and oneness. After my 3rd session, I am not only finally breathing, but also I am in a new energy field and creating my life with highest intention. I am very grateful for Michelle to guide me.
I felt so much release occur in my body after being breathed by Michelle. It felt like I had taken a 4 hour nap after a 30 minute session. My body was really able to sink into the experience and release a lot of stress I was holding on to. I love Michelle's playful and loving energy: it gives me permission to just relax.
Michelle really guided me through the session to provide what I needed. I had a LOT of pain in my back and she helped me to breathe with that. She allowed me to receive exactly what I needed ... and shed light on how much emotion I was carrying with that. I can always feel how truly grounded and loving your energy is and so appreciate you. I feel so nourished and so held and resourced after your sessions, Michelle. Thank you!
Michelle's energy and presence is so grounding. I have this feeling that I just want to curl up on a couch with her, have a good long conversation with a cup of tea. Her cueing was intuitively timed as it aligned with what I was experiencing. I felt so relaxed and can't wait until we meet again!
My favorite part was the ease of everything. I felt so safe to express and move through my energy during this breath session. Michelle has amazing voice and a special intuition that let her guide beautifully. I can't wait to see her again!
My favorite part of the breath session was a reminder to breathe deeper. I really enjoyed Michelle's long term experience and knowledge and, her loving peaceful demeanor. I am so grateful.
Michelle was calm, grounded and professional. In fact, when she started explaining, I felt I could relax because I was in good hands. Her voice is perfect for this work. I felt empowered with the statements she was making during the breath session. I feel my goal was accomplished and would love to continue to dive in with this method.
Michelle is a Feng Shui master. Her Feng Shui analysis "fixed" challenging interior and exterior environmental factors to improve the flow of positive "Chi" throughout my property in Great Falls, VA. Michelle's recommended remedies, to include landscaping, color and placement of objects, alleviated the possibility of negative fortune and attracted the perfect buyer to the home. The couple that eventually purchased the house had seen the home on the first weekend it went on the market. Michelle is a professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. I enjoyed the Feng Shui process with Michelle so much, that I will use Michelle for a Feng Shui consult prior to moving into a new home.
Michelle's involvement has instigated significant changes in the way we use our home and has created the opportunity to pass on many of our possessions. My family and I are already thrilled with the results and we aren't even done yet! This process has been so interesting, educational, therapeutic and enjoyable.
Michelle helped make our home happy! We have a blended family that we integrated into our new home. At the beginning, times were tough. I was working a lot from home and not getting much done. The kids weren't getting along and we felt trapped in our new home. I met Michelle in her role as my yoga teacher and when I learned of her Feng Shui talents, I immediately sought her expert guidance. Michelle came to our home, met with everyone and learned about us and our lives. Michelle supported us with a full Feng Shui consultation and within a few days Michelle presented us with a detailed analysis complete with color recommendations and Feng Shui remedies. We immediately began to take action on Michelle's recommendations and within a few days of moving some furniture, adding some missing elements, and shifting some of our furniture, life began to change for us. My career began to move in a more positive direction and I was much better at focusing in the new space. The kids started to get along and there was an easiness about how we all interacted. We continue to prosper in our home and appreciate all the love and help we received from Michelle to help turn our dreams into our lives.
I never write testimonials because I'm one of those people who never quite believes their authentic. For you readers somewhat like me.... here's a genuine heartfelt testimonial that can really be taken seriously, and more importantly it can be relied upon as you choose a Master to enhance your space. Michelle came into my life " out of the blue" (following her yoga class), I think because I was yearning for a deeper connection with myself and the universe through my intimate environment. She has changed my life in a deeply profound way. Her professionalism gave me a greater respect for the body of knowledge that is "Feng Shui". Her genius is in her intuitive style of integrating the core principles of Feng Shui - the nature of who you are with your current living/working environment. She is wonderfully open and has a way of getting things done. As we navigated through this delightful and fun process, I always knew Michelle had a sincere desire to tweak and refine every placement until we had just the right balance to optimize the auspicious nature of every area in my space. She has tailormade my space in a way I could never imagine. When I left my comfort zone, I trusted her judgment and was amazed at how I loved the end product. That's never happened to me before. When I walked back into my bedroom, I felt so relaxed and grounded. I felt like I had a 5 hour massage and the feeling deepened and remains. The right little things, shifts and nuances can bring a new and tangible serenity to your life. With deep Gratitude, Georgia.
Michelle Ouimet is a truly gifted Feng Shui consultant. She helped create a yoga studio like no other. It is a truly special place; a cornerstone of the community and sanctuary for health and well-being. Please take a look at the before and after pictures. Michelle was present from the beginning and helped steward the project from concept to actuality. Michelle is a master at seeing the big picture and finessing the details with aplomb. Michelle helped in great detail to choose the design and layout that would foster a sense of community. From coordinating colors to enhance the flow of energy and selecting materials to enhance mood. She has a firm grasp of where to place materials for a balanced look and feel: a little wood here, some metal there or even flowing water. She also helped to arrange furniture for optimal results: by placing the oval desk in the prosperity corner of the lobby, for example with backdrop of full wall-size waterfall wall to enhance the 'Chi' (life force) of the business. Michelle identified strong and weak areas in the building and suggested simple, yet effective ways to bring about change. Michelle's powerful intuition and skills have helped make the studio a success. The effects of Michelle's efforts have been remarkable. Clients often comment on the calm atmosphere of the studio as soon as they cross the threshold. Lady Gaga once visited the studio to take a class. As soon as she walked in the doors she proclaimed, "My sanctuary!" Thank you, Michelle for helping create the studio and attracting such wonderful energy to our healing space.
I am a notorious rat pack and spending at least 10 hours a day in my Pentagon office, made it by defacto my second home. Michelle came over and helped me organize my desk and office space. It now has a much better feel and I find that I am more productive. Coming to work is as comfortable as going home.
michelle arranged my home office furniture - putting the couch against the wall and putting the desk in the middle of the room. in the four months since, i have written a novel, one whose characters and plot line had been bedeviling me for years. thank you, michelle

It is a truly special place; a cornerstone of the community and sanctuary for health and well-being. Please take a look at the before and after pictures. Michelle was present from the beginning and helped steward the project from concept to actuality. Michelle is a master at seeing the big picture and finessing the details with aplomb. Michelle helped in great detail to choose the design and layout that would foster a sense of community. From coordinating colors to enhance the flow of energy and selecting materials to enhance mood. She has a firm grasp of where to place materials for a balanced look and feel: a little wood here, some metal there or even flowing water. She also helped to arrange furniture for optimal results: by placing the oval desk in the prosperity corner of the lobby, for example with backdrop of full wall-size waterfall wall to enhance the 'Chi' (life force) of the business. Michelle identified strong and weak areas in the building and suggested simple, yet effective ways to bring about change. Michelle's powerful intuition and skills have helped make the studio a success. The effects of Michelle's efforts have been remarkable. Clients often comment on the calm atmosphere of the studio as soon as they cross the threshold. Lady Gaga once visited the studio to take a class. As soon as she walked in the doors she proclaimed, "My sanctuary!" Thank you, Michelle for helping create the studio and attracting such wonderful energy to our healing space.
I am a notorious rat pack and spending at least 10 hours a day in my Pentagon office, made it by defacto my second home. Michelle came over and helped me organize my desk and office space. It now has a much better feel and I find that I am more productive. Coming to work is as comfortable as going home.
michelle arranged my home office furniture - putting the couch against the wall and putting the desk in the middle of the room. in the four months since, i have written a novel, one whose characters and plot line had been bedeviling me for years. thank you, michelle
