Join me, Beccy Smith, founder and CEO of Holistic Equine and host Yasmin Stuart - Equine Physio in this nearly 3-hour webinar all about feet function - where I answer 3 critically important questions - what they are, why horses need them and how horses get them!
"Without question, the biggest game changer in my understanding of horse posture, movement and training was when I learned about the influence that hoof balance has on the whole horse.
Over the duration of my career, I have learned that healthy, appropriately balanced feet underpin not only the entire nervous system of the horse, but can be the difference between healthy and unhealthy movement AND injury, recovery from injury or re-injury. I have found that a horse with balanced feet will literally walk on symmetrical muscle mass - meaning from a physiotherapy perspective, having balanced feet supersedes any exercise I can prescribe.
I have also found that having balanced feet makes it considerably easier for a horse to find healthy posture, which then strips out a layer of complexity during training because your horse can already find neutral. This means that when we have horses, if we can get their foot balance right, we really are setting them up for success.
This month, I am delighted to be joined by the wonderful Beccy Smith of Holistic Equine, where she will be discussing what healthy hoof morphology really is, the factors that influence it and what you can do to help your horse.
Beccy is an Integrative Equine Podiatrist who truly considers the whole horse with respect to hoof health. Her keen eye and attention to detail is second to none in the hoof care sphere" - Webinar host Yasmin Stuart Equine Physio - Webinar: Train Your Eye - Functioning Feet: What They Are And How To Get Them
