"My daughter has used Julie as her saddle fitter ever since, recently with her Appaloosa who is excelling in dressage so need a dressage saddle. The general purpose hacking saddle is a Thorowgood - fitted by Julie."

"Julie fitted my 4 year old Highland mare, who in her development has one shoulder slightly wider than the other. This made getting a saddle to fit quite difficult, without the added issues of having a flat and short backed round pony. Nevertheless, Julie worked with me to find something to fit her before we get our 'proper' grown up saddle. Every time she has come out she's been very patient with my impatient youngster and is always happy to explain what she's doing and why, so you can learn what's going on with the saddle whilst on the horse."

"I'd spent a couple of years trying to find the right saddle for my large warmblood mare. I'd tried what I thought to be the best saddles available, that would allow her freedom at the shoulder but she was clearly telling me that each was not the 'one'. Having seen positive comments on social media I decided to test the Solutions Smart... it turned out that my mare loved it. Unfortunately I was the problem, but Julie assessed the biomechanics and my geometry and came up with a solution that I really wouldn't have considered, but worked perfectly. I now ride in a VSD which has proven perfect for jumping, cross country and a few dressage moves. If you want a saddle fitter with the skills to really find what works for you and your horse, call Julie. Alison Ball "

"I can thoroughly recommend Julie and would use her services again, her professional expertise and friendly manner means we can relax and know our horses are in good hands."

"I first met Julie a few years ago when my daughter was having a saddle fitting. It had always been difficult to find a saddle to fit this horse - a high withered warmblood. Julie was patient (the horse didn’t always like the saddle fitting process), my daughter bought a Lavinia Mitchell saddle and was very pleased with how the horse moved in the new saddle - suddenly freeing up the shoulders for a more powerful moment."
