Dissection NBCAAM Approved CE Credits

Overview:
This dissection will be a very participatory dissection. The group size will allow ample time to observe, touch, and move different tissues and joints. It will give us all a chance to explore, ask each other questions, and seek the answers to those questions as a group. Lorre Mueller will lead much of the dissection but there will be welcomed participation from all who attend.

If you have any specific questions or a topic of interest that you do not see listed, please feel free to email Lorre at trinityequinellc@gmail.com.  All efforts will be made to address your questions or topics.

Here are the main topics covered in the dissection:

  • How incorrect bridle fit has implications on these structures and others

Back Clinic

Overview:
If you are interested in what true collection means, what the horse has to do in his body to achieve that, and how you can better help them do that, this is the clinic for you. Come learn about the muscles required to achieve self-carriage, how the horse uses itself to become light on the front end, the role of the thoracic sling and neck in the process. The horse is elevating his back not lifting it and it is an amazing simple process when we can help them do it correctly!
