Add SMART™ to your range

Introducing horses and riders to the SMART™ saddle concept is a deeply rewarding experience - now everyone has the opportunity to make a real difference to horse welfare.

Our network of SMART Advisors include specialists in equestrian fields such as saddle fitters, trainers and therapists, as well as riders and competitors who own and ride in their own SMART™ saddles. From Referral Agents to Technical Advisors, Retailers and Training Consultants, we operate a tier structure to fit in with your circumstances.

Full training

SMART™ Saddles are constantly striving to improve standards; we offer regular training opportunities, at no charge, for all our SMART™ Advisors to maintain the highest levels of fitting advice and customer care. SMART™ Advisors receive induction training and must thereafter attend annual training days to maintain approved status.

Become a SMART Advisor

SMART™ Advisor training includes: 

  • Comprehensive product updates
  • Static horse assessment; from posture to muscular development and how the horse is likely to carry a saddle
  • Palpation of the back and identification of injury, weaknesses and asymmetries
  • Saddle selection according to the horse and rider as a combination
  • Fitting the saddle to the horse’s back, both with and without the rider
  • Balancing the saddle for the rider, to allow comfortable, effective riding
  • Gait assessment under saddle, including observations of horse behaviours
  • Applying research findings to saddle fit and performance under saddle
