About me

Hello there! I´m Christina Marz, founder of Horse Guided Empowerment® and Sin Miedo® Non-profit.

Hello there

I am Christina Marz, founder of Horse Guided Empowerment®

I coach and heal with herds all over the world to promote emotional wellbeing for myself, the horses and our clients. As a HeartMath® Trainer, speaker, Family Therapist and author of a few books, I´ve impacted many lives worldwide. It's been 40+ years now since horses helped me find calmness and empowerment. I grew up in a complicated home in Germany where I felt anxious and disconnected - except when I spent time with horses. In 2001 I moved to Ecuador to find a life with more freedom, closer to nature and horses. It's been scary at times but I learned so much along the way and now I dedicate my life to sharing the impact of the horse and human connection. I am grateful that my 3 kids get to grow up with a herd of horses, a quiet mountain home and lots of travel.
