Shop4bits will be attending some Active Rider Horsecamps and events. A shop4bits professional be available for people to discuss bitting and will help people actually try bits whilst on site at our event with your horse. We advise attendees not to try new bits in your lessons and suggest trying them in your free time - this way your lesson time is not compromised in any way. If you would like to try this service, with no obligation, it would be great to prepare shop4bits in advance. Speak to them about what you want to try and size etc. Should you want to take the bits home there is a 30 day trial period. Superb service from this organisation - well worth trying something different.
At some Active Rider events we will be having a demonstration by the Horses Inside Out Team. We will be painting a horse on camp and then holding an Equine Lecture giving a fascinating insight into how the horse works. This is a serious subject presented in an interesting and informative fashion.
These lectures explain the significance of biomechanics to:
Improving performance,
Reducing Injury,
Maintaining top physiological condition.
These informative and interactive talks are of interest to professional riders, coaches, trainers, elite squads, clubs, associations, colleges, BHS students, therapists and equestrian centres.
At our Active Horsecamps up and down the country we are exclusively
demonstrating the Quitkick system. We will be using it on the worst door

chance to evaluate this new and exciting initiative that aims to make our
lives quieter and keep our horses and doors safer for longer.
The Quit-Kick unit has been specially designed by experienced equine professionals to eliminate the frustrating habit of horses kicking stable doors.
