Functioneel Saddling with THV/BALANCE saddles.

In this video, I explain what the difference is between conventional and functional saddling. Really important is the space a horse needs to move under the saddle, the method with padding and honouring the natural movements of the ridden horse.

In 1993, Lesley Taylor, Carol Brett and Maureen Bartlett started the BALANCE Company. The BALANCE company was founded on the wholistic approach of training and saddling the ridden horse. The whole story and more information about this approach can be found on the webpage of the BALANCE company: https://www.balanceinternational.com/

In 2023, 30 years after the start of the BALANCE company, the saddles where taken over by The Horse's Voice and the owner Keren Morris, who used to work at the BALANCE company. If you want to know more about the saddles, please check https://thvsaddling.com/
