My role as a saddle fitter is not just to measure your horse and find you a saddle that fits - looking at the rider’s anatomy is a huge part of the puzzle. This feedback from one of my client’s is a testament to what can be achieved when we not only look at how we can help the horse, but how we can help the rider:

“I really wanted to sort my seat out as I knew it wasn’t what it should be, and honestly I had waffled about quitting riding entirely a few times in the last couple of years because of it…

I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for the suggestion to see an osteopath. It’s like I have a whole new body and new relationship and means of communicating with my horse. Amazing both for riding and for my running – I’m way more durable and my chronic left side low back/groin/quad/hamstring/glute/knee pain is virtually gone. At any rate – I just wanted to say thanks and to give the feedback that your suggestion was an excellent one! Thank you again for being so passionate about what you do”

If you’re dealing with pain while riding, let’s chat; you and your horse deserve to feel your best!

My Saddle Is Adjustable, I Shouldn't Need a Saddle Fitter.

The saga of sweat marks.....what do you think these say? Answer...this was an aussie saddle ridden with a thick 1 in pad for 2 hrs. You can see the slightly darker area on the shoulder because the saddle is slightly too narrow, which then created bridging..leading to the dry spot. Had the pad been thinner, it would have been more obvious. So....this is proof that a thicker pad DOES NOT provide more padding with an ill fitting saddle. All it did was provide enough contact to make it look like there was contact in the back and it showed how thicker I the front creates less room for shoulders to move

Yesterday I got to discuss with an "old cowboy" about saddle fitting his western saddle, for wife's horse in case he needs to ride. I put the saddle on the horses back as I always do. He says, "Look at how gently she is putting that on!"
All horses deserve to not have anything slammed on their back. If you have to swing your saddle up, because it's too heavy for you to set gently on the animal that is so graciously hold your ass on it's back - then get another saddle!
Horses aren't here for us to use and abuse.

Always check adjustable trees at least 2x per year for any cracks in the trees. As you can see this is intact, right???? NOPE!!! and this was sold at a tack store. ALWAYS open up a used adjustable tree at the tack shop.
