Equine Touch and Beyond or Level 4, as it has become known as, is the most exciting development since Level 3 for practitioners evolved back in 2002. Equine Touch is a developing modality where positive evolution is encouraged allowing the discipline to grow for the benifit of the horse.

Three days of 'thinking equine bodywork, outside the box' is what it has been described as. The students spend the while time with Jock himself, working on horses with problems in the morning and then taking the new procedures that they will be introduced to and practising on their subject horses in the afternoon. On this clinic the students are made to think like professional practitioners, observing, and analyzing before applying ET to the animal.

The student/practitioners is introduced to 40 new procedures which have been developed not only by Jock and Ivana, but by Equine Bodyworkers throughout the world. They are also encouraged to think as individuals, to decide where when, and how to use these new procedures for the benifit of the horse, as well as where when and how to use them in conjunction with the moves from Levels 1, 2, 3.

Apart from being thoroughly assesed by Jock himself, and introduced to the all new concept of Equine Bodywork Horsemanship©, the new techniques the student will learn include:
