An eye opener!
"I attended one of their 3 day courses and it was an eye opener for me as a horse owner. The level of knowledge and experience of dealing with horses suffering from laminitis will hopefully help prevent any of my horses ever suffering from it! I’m also now confident looking after my own horses hooves! Amazing!"
Overview of the workshop
Learn about Natural Horse & Hoof Care from experienced HMIS barefoot specialist instructors.
Let them guide you over the course of 3 days on how to achieve optimum health for your horse and their hooves, through diet, management, basic trimming and horse handling.
By the end of the 3 days you’ll know:
- what is meant by a species-specific diet
- what constitutes an equine healthy hoof and how to recognise hoof pathologies
- the anatomy of the lower leg
- how to maintain your own horse’s hooves in-between professional trims
Changed my life!
"These guys are changing the world! Since following them and attending lectures, courses and presentations, I have come to truly appreciate their depth of knowledge and common-sense approach. I cannot believe what I did not know, even after 40 years with horses including BHS qualifications! It's a fantastic journey and HMIS is there to support you all the way. They have changed my life - and my horses' - forever. Goodbye laminitis and footsore horses! Hello happy, healthy, barefoot horses."
Be informed
This workshop will give you all the education and information you need to be able to have meaningful conversations with your vet, farrier/trimmer, body workers, and extended equine team.
The right trim
This workshop will show you the correct trim through theory and hands on cadaver trimming, in a safe and well controlled environment. This will enable you to maintain your horse’s hooves in-between pro trims.
Hoof problems
We encourage owners to come to the workshop with photos and videos of their own horses, so that we can advise you on the best way forward to help heal any problems your horse is facing – including laminitis and navicular.
