The Bit Fitter

25/07/2026

I’m honoured to have been asked to present at the first of hopefully many CanterCon coaches seminars in Melbourne this weekend.

Already some fabulous information being shared, it’s shaping up to be a super weekend!
First presentation by one of my horsie heroes Dr Andrew McLean Equitation Science International - ESI was excellent.

I’ll be presenting at the Victoria A pavilion at 2.25pm Sunday.

This is something I see very regularly.
Riders book me because they think it’s a bitting issue. My observations will often very quickly determine that it’s not.
Using Equitation Science International - ESI principles, I’ll show you how to help your horse give the correct answer to rein pressure!

I think of it like this -
The horse doesn’t know the correct answer to rein pressure.
If you don’t know how to juggle, changing from oranges to lemons doesn’t improve your juggling.
Just as changing bits doesn’t improve your horses understanding of the aids.
The correct responses must be trained, but the good news??!! It’s super easy and EVERYONE can do it!

Educating riders about bits and related gear is what I do!
I’m not going to tell you what to do, but I believe we owe it to our horses to be educated about why and how we use gear.

My TBF bits are designed with the latest study data at the forefront.
Affordably priced, most horses really like them.
