Clinics

Clinics are suited to Clubs, Associations and Retailers. 

Do you want to know more about Bits and Bitting?


 If a horse is uncomfortable in his mouth, he will resist, tense up and not concentrate on what you are asking him to do. 

Finding the right bit for your horse, teamed with good basic schooling is a critical part of reversing this process, so you can communicate effectively and humanely with him and he can relax into his work.

Clinics are suited to Clubs, Associations and Retailers. 
There is approximately a one hour general Bitting Talk that can be stylised to specific requirements, after the talk two demonstration Horses will be bitted in front of the audience to put theory into practice.
Questions and observations from the audience are encouraged throughout 
Ranges of bits displayed to demonstrate shape and form 
Expect the Clinic to last approx. 2 1/2 to 3 hours
 

At each Clinic you will learn:


  • General considerations before we think of changing the bit
  • How conventional bits work
  • The conformation of the Horses mouth 
  • How to understand resistance.
  • How to access the structure of your horse's mouth.
  • How to fit bits.
  • How to choose the correct bit for your horse.
  • How to transition the horse into his new bit successfully
