Equine Nutrition Advisor I
Is this for you?
You - someone who has spent countless hours learning everything you can about equine nutrition. Maybe it started with your own horse - a struggle that sent you down a rabbit hole of research that you never stopped following. Maybe it's the years you've spent as a bodyworker, a vet tech, or the person who gets asked nutrition questions all the time. You somehow became the person who loves this topic.
No matter how it started, here's what you might not know yet: you can turn this interest into a viable business.
Equine Nutrition Advising is a real, professional path - and you don't need a science degree to be successful in it. This 12-week program, Equine Nutrition Advisor I, teaches you the science, critical thinking application and the practical business skills to turn what you already love into a Certified Equine Nutrition Advising business. No matter where you are in the world - the Legacy ENA program is applicable and all students are welcome.
You might be wondering
"Am I someone who can actually do this?"
The answer is 100% yes.
Let's name it, because I know it's there. ‘I don't have the right background. I know a lot, but I don't know how to turn it into something professional. I'm not sure I understand science enough for this.’
I hear versions of this from almost every Advisor before they start. Here's what I want you to know - you can be taught this. I've had Advisors join with Bachelor's degrees in completely unrelated fields, Advisors who came from body work and vet tech backgrounds, and Advisors who hadn't set foot in a classroom in twenty years. All of them are now advising clients with confidence!
You don't need a science background. You don't need business experience. You need the passion you already have, a desire to learn, and a bit of determination - I'll teach you the rest.

Curriculum
Course
My Commitment to You
Every lesson in this program is built to sharpen your judgment - teaching you to ask the right questions, weigh the facts, and think through each horse's needs on their own terms. When you finish, you're not just repeating what I taught you. You're able to design a sound nutrition program for any horse, not just the ones in my examples.
You'll get evidence-based nutrition education that turns complex science into confident, practical advice. And when the course ends, my support doesn't. You keep a mentor and a community in your corner as you build a real business.
Why Learn from Me
I'm not teaching directly from a textbook or reciting facts I’ve found online. I’ve worked professionally in this industry - for feed and supplement companies, in university classrooms, and as an Advisor to my own clients. What you're learning is current, lived, and my method has proven to be effective in thousands of real-life scenarios.
Case studies, not just theory.
You'll work through real, live cases - the kind you'll actually see with clients.
Practice the conversations, not just the science.
You'll rehearse how to talk through tough questions, hold confident conversations and navigate pushback.
A PhD Equine Nutritionist.
Professionally, practically and academically experienced, with decades of successful application and a proven approach to equine nutrition.
By the end of ENA I
You'll Learn
How to balance a feed program, evaluate a horse's diet with confidence and recommend an effective plan
How to critically evaluate feeds and supplements, including which brands to trust and which claims deserve a closer look
How to translate the science into guidance owners and vets can actually use
How to think through a horse's needs as an individual, not a formula
More Than a Course – a mentor and a community
The Advisors who go furthest in this program aren't the ones with the heaviest science background. They're the ones who lean into the community.
You'll get live sessions with your professor, Dr. Mottet, built around real case studies, and a community of Advisors around the world who show up for each other.
If This Sounds Like You
You’ve Got This!
To do this work, it takes a real passion for equine nutrition, a genuine desire to keep learning, and a bit of grit - especially if you're building something of your own alongside it. You are completely capable.
It's not for everyone. If you're looking for a quick trick or a "one size fits all" answer, this isn't it - there are MANY ways to feed a horse correctly, and I'll teach you to see them all. If you're the kind of person who wants to get it right, and who cares as much about the horse as the outcome, you're exactly who this program was built for.
Hear It from Them Directly
I could tell you this program works. I'd rather you hear it from advisors who started exactly where you are now. Reach out to any of our graduates - they'll be happy to talk about their experience and tell you exactly what to expect.
