The primary reason for the development of Equido® is to educate people, from basic to advanced horsemanship, in a method that is sympathetic to the needs of the horse. Equido® has been accredited by LANTRA for over ten years and in that time there have been over 500 students who have studied the system. The premise for writing this book is to show people another perspective in working with horses.


Within these pages you will see vets, farriers, bodyworkers and trainers going about their day-to-day work as a result some of the pictures show horses coming in from the field. What you see is an honest representation of work carried out on a yard. We also wanted to show that it is not just the trainer who is involved with the horse but a team of highly skilled equestrian professionals.

In reading this book our hope is that you find information that is beneficial to you and your horse and perhaps this will be the start of your journey of discovery along the path of least resistance.
