Saddle fitting services, see below for prices

Based in Kent and covering the south east of England I offer a full holistic saddle fitting service with the focus always on your horse's comfort and wellbeing. 

I fit and advise on Barefoot  and Ghost treeless saddles and Christ Lammfelle and Barefoot bareback pads.

I am a certified western saddle fitter, trained by The Western Saddler, and have a holistic, equine focused approach to saddle fitting for both western treed and treeless saddles.

I can check the fit of your existing saddle and for those who want a new saddle I can measure, advise and order a custom made saddle for you and your horse.

My goal is to give you and your horse a lifetime of comfortable riding and I do this by

• conducting an assessment of your horse's back, posture, conformation and behaviour
• listening to your plans for the future and your aspirations  
• recommending a saddle style and configuration to suit your size and shape, how you like to ride and what activities you intend to do with your horse

If you're looking for a new western saddle I'll make a template of your horse's back to send to the saddle maker so we make sure it's a great fit.

For Barefoot I carry the pommel templates and can advise on shimming and girthing.

I am an agent for Ghost saddles so can bring a range of styles for you to try and advise on what's best for you both. 

My consultations include rider fit to ensure you are as comfortable as your horse and as easy for them to carry as possible.

An initial consultation usually takes 1.5-2hrs and I'll send you a full report of my visit including any recommendations.  There will be follow up conversations and ongoing support if needed.

If you decide to order a new western or treeless saddle you'll then choose the style of saddle you want and customise it making it unique to you and your horse.

I recommend Mattes saddle pads and cinches/girths due to their superior quality and you won't regret choosing one - they are stunning! You can choose the style of pad, colours and detailing and then once your saddle is ready I'll bring everything to you, fit the saddle, make any adjustments needed and  you're ready to ride!

By the end of the process you will have a saddle fitted to your horse and to you and in your favourite colours and designs so it will be truly unique!

I will talk you through the whole process before the consultation but if you have any questions before you decide to book please do ask.

If you'd like to book a consultation just drop me a line or complete a consultation form.

I look forward to meeting you and your horse.

Alison
