Revolutionary horse bit company, Neue Schule are enrolling students now
for The Academy’s first ever Bitting
Analyst Course.
Bitting Analyst is the third section of the Fundamentals of Bits and Bitting
Course. The cost is £75.00 which includes a 50 N spring balance and it
will begin on 6th June for the first time, lasting eight weeks. The
course comprises primarily of case studies and concludes with an in-depth
scientific analysis of a bitting situation.
The Academy was founded by Neue Schule
to share their groundbreaking research and knowledge with the equine community.
Its main course, Fundamentals of Bits and Bitting, is aimed at anyone with an
interest in bitting, from riders to saddle fitters, right through to retailers.
The course is divided into three sections; The Foundation Course, The
Intermediate Course and the Bitting Analyst Course. Certificates recognizing
the level of accomplishment are sent out to students upon completion of the
course.
The Foundation and Intermediate courses open twice a year with successful
students qualifying for the Bitting Analyst course which runs once a year,
through the summer.
The Foundation course enrolment is also open now and will begin alongside the
Bitting Analyst course on 6th June. This course is open to anyone
with an interest in bits and bitting, costing £25.00.
The next Intermediate course will begin on 30th August costing £30
and is open to students who have successfully completed the foundation course.
Neue Schule’s Manager of Research and Education, Dr. Caroline Benoist explained
that “The Academy was established to dispel common “bitting” myths and really
get riders to think about how a bit and any extra tack attached to it affects
the horse’s mouth.” She added “Where the courses are technical we offer lots of
support to the students and it speaks volumes that some have waited since
December to enroll in Bitting Analyst. We hope that some of this
knowledge will serve to improve horse welfare when it comes to bitting horses.”
