Thankyou for your patience with me getting back to messages over the last few days, we had a very rare weekend away at a wedding and it was nice to switch off for a couple of days ( there was no option as there was no signal 😊). I have alot of messages to work through which I will get to first thing in the morning, thanks again for your patience, Victoria xx

Woke up to the latest grade for the case studies so far and manual therapy techniques used. Then 2 hours of organising the diary ( I think I've got everyone booked in but if I have missed your message just send me a gentle reminder 🤗) Now setting off fitting for the day, just hope the weather's a bit more forgiving today 🙏

“There’s something powerful about quiet moments like these—just me, the horse, and the work we’re doing together. Almost officially qualified in Equine Manual Therapy and loving every step of the journey. 🐴

A day off today and a Trip to Royal Lancashire show with a late finish, but totally worth it 😁🥇🥉. Now to head home to celebrate and relax 🥂. I will catch up with messages in the morning, thanks Victoria 😊

Have you ever wondered why you have to trot your horse up for the saddle fitter? 👀🤷‍♀️

When it comes to fitting saddles we always look at the bigger picture!!! When you trot your horse up in hand we are doing a full gait analysis, the list is endless but basically I'm looking for soundness, asymmetries, compensatory movements, hoof landing stability, conformation restrictions, muscular changes and over all posture.
The horses frame changes vastly in motion and I like to see the horses natural engagement without a rider on first.
There are lots of differences between the 2 pictures below, wither lift, core engagement, even down to tail set, the list goes on.....
Look at the dynamic picture and see the difference in the lumbar (the area behind where your saddle goes). This area can not be compromised under saddle, but should be allowed to move freely to enable hind end engagement.
Your horses back profile changes in motion and trotting your horse up in hand enables me to see the bigger picture before we even get to the saddle!!!

Good thing about living in Lancashire we have hills!!! Excellent way to thoroughly test saddle adjustments. I remained at the top of the hill to check the results upon return 😂😊
