Suitable for existing, certified saddle fitters.
Take your saddle fitting education to the next level with our Stage 4 Advanced Saddle Fitting Award.
This course is open to existing or certified saddle fitters only.
Over the course of two days you will learn how to make on-site and off-site adjustments and repairs to new and used saddles. An absolute 'must' for any professional saddle fitter.
Adjustments will include full re-flocks (dropping and re-lacing panels), on-site flocking, girth strap replacements, stitching, gullet bars adjustments, shims and pads and head plate adjustments.
All participants will be required to bring along a traditional English saddle and supply their own tools, a full list of which can be obtained by emailing admin@saddle-academy.com.
Observation based assessment will be conducted throughout the duration of the course. Additional training may be required before awarding certification at the discretion of the Course Director.
