I hope you guys find this informational and entertaining. Let the record state that no client saddles were harmed in the making of this, that is Nathalie’s very own saddle that she got to practice on. Also, shoutout to Ysa for inspiring “The Seamstress” position—you can listen to the full song anywhere other than in this video 🤣

As Donna and Tom (from Parks & Rec) would say, “TREAT YO’ SELF!”. No seriously, you deserve to have a super duper clean saddle and honestly, your saddle deserves it too! Thankfully this saddle wasn’t in need of a total revival—just a little scrape scrape and scrub scrub and she’s good to go!

My tall 10 year old child is a great example of a kid whose bottom fits fine in a 14” saddle (with a whole hand of space behind her bum- though she would never actually ride in a saddle this small) but the leg…not so much! If we put the long legged kids in big adult sized saddles, they sometimes really struggle to find their balance point and get frustrated when riding feels scary. Let us help you find the right saddle for your growing young rider! 😬🦵🏼🦵🏼

Note* we took a pic of her in this saddle to show the hilarity of her long leg on this flap even though her pelvis fits in the seat. She doesn’t and never has ridden in this saddle. Guys. Come on 🤣.

A very special young OTTB mare showing us how much she loves her work! Her owner called right after she got her and immediately had her fitted. She chose a Loxley eventer with an adjustable tree and wool panels and as the mare has grown we have adjusted it a couple of times. Excited to see her be brought along so correctly and in well fitting tack 😍

We are having a Dolly Parton concert and just crying. What an icon, and a KIND, talented authentic woman. Just saying Jolene’s name will always make us smile. Watch over us all, we need it. ❤️

Today I found my bathroom toilet paper replacement gravitas soulmate and met THE Nikolas, Breyer dressage pony IRL, picked out a dream horse just based on her sticking her head out of a stall door, and helped a friend and her lovely horse find a dressage saddle that suits them both! It was a lovely day ❤️🐴🧻

A beautiful and comfy start to the week! Sometimes the best way to start the day is to get to see sweet barn kitties napping in the sunshine on hay bales 😍 AND see young horses and their riders find “the most comfortable saddle EVERRRR”!
