Too often people miss the signs of their horse's discomfort. Short and choppy strides, loss of topline muscle, bucking, a stiff and hollow-back - these are all symptoms of a horse in pain. "Stall Rest and Bute" is mistakenly the treatment when the underlying cause cannot be found, and joint injections don't treat the underlying cause of joint instability. Become an educated horse owner, and improve your horse's comfort and performance before it's too late!

Dear Joanna,
Last November I was fortune enough to sit in on your amazing lecture (twice) at Equitana in Melbourne, it was the first time someone has ever explained saddle fitting properly. I have now read your book and watch your DVD production and I want to congratulate you for producing this brilliant product, something that is much needed. Last year I tried to research saddle fitting with some very disappointing results as the information was very basic and lacking essential points required which you have covered and easy to understand. I have had horses for roughly 30 years and it truly amazes me the lack of knowledge in this vital area. I have to confess that I have been guilty of poor saddle fitting in the past, not deliberately of course and feel gutted for the pain I must have put my darling equine friends through however not anymore, thank you so very much for putting it right. Hope we have the opportunity to meet some day. Keep up the good work and the very all the very best.
Kind Regards
