Shires Harbridge Training Aids

Launched in 1995 the Harbridge training aid has been a huge success and proved invaluable for all disciplines and abilities as it imitates the perfect pair of hands.

The main strengths of the Harbridge are:
– easy to use
– encourages all horses, of any standard, to work in the correct outline
– aids the development of correct musculature
– negates the tendency for the horse to lean
– encourages lightness and self carriage
– affords greater softness through the back
– encourages greater engagement and control
– helps to create lighter hands

Recent testing has shown that the Harbridge is very useful for schooling over trotting poles and small fences as it aids concentration and enhances bascule without interfering with the mouth.
