Bit & Bitless Bridle Fit Specialist

Bit & bridle fit appointments across Ireland

Remove the guesswork from bit & bridle fit

Head tossing, leaning on the contact, tongue evading, or just not feeling quite right? Whether you are aiming for a relaxed hack, smoother flatwork, or a bolder jump, clear communication starts with a bit and bridle that truly fit. 

Based in Co. Kerry and travelling nationwide on regular clinic routes, I come to your yard to assess your horse’s anatomy, test options dynamically under saddle, and let your horse show us what feels best.

No pressure, no judgment, and zero force. Just evidence-based fitting designed around equine welfare and real-world riding.

Comfort comes first. Performance naturally follows.

Bit & Bridle Fitting

Through anatomical assessment and ridden trials, we find a bit and bridle combination that respects your horse’s oral anatomy —transforming resistance into soft, willing communication, confidence on the aids, and a lighter, more relaxed partnership under saddle.

Bitless Bridle Fitting

By matching the right bitless mechanics to your horse’s facial sensitivity, bitless can encourage relaxation and a lighter, more forward response. Ideal for retraining, sensitive mouths, or for riders who are seeking an alternative connection that supports biomechanical freedom.

Phillppa is talented and has a deep level of understanding for horses, which shows in everything she does. We ran a 2 day clinic in our yard Amusant Equestrian with and it was so much more than I expected. Everyone that attended took home new skills for training their own horses, and each person enjoyed it immensely with the question begin asked... when is the next clinic being held ?

I learnt so much about Equine psychology and fun things to do with my pony to build on our bond. I realise now how very clever he is and how much he enjoys working. He worked with various handlers during the weekend and gained so much valuable experience for such a young pony being only 3 years old. I can see we will have a long and fun partnership thanks to Phillippa's advice.

I wanted to drop you a note to say how interesting I thought the course was, particularly how you put the teaching into the context of both the science and the herd observation. Personally, I love the blend of science and intuition, experience and feel and I think you did a really good job of bringing these elements together.

Allowing the horse to choose best bitless to suit their preferences as opposed to solely ours. It changed that perspective. The clinic was incredibly inspirational and I highly recommend attending a day. Phillipas presentation skills and warm engaging nature allowed us to feel comfortable asking any questions and I came away feeling more confident in my abilities to use a bitless in the future.
