“We now feel comfortable asking horses to work”

Rosehill Dressage is a classical dressage training centre in Northville, Michigan, USA instructing students of all ages from beginners through to Grand Prix.

Towards the end of last year and through this year we have established the most rewarding working relationship with Anne Stahl, the proprietor and instructor. The net result to date is 15 dressage saddles for her clients. Many are the Suzannah Monoflap but also the Styletta and the Olivia. We started with primarily Spanish horses but then Warmbloods and off track TBs.

“Ian is fab!”

Anne has years of experience and over these years has tried many different brands of saddle. She told us that constant problems were saddles moving from side to side and/or pinching the horse’s shoulders and/or not being stable in the correct place on the horse’s back. Problems were solved through a combination of Ideal’s unrivalled range of saddles & trees for horses of all shapes and Ian’s “ability to understand what we are experiencing and relate this to what he recommends as the solution”. Anne went on to say “Ian is fab”! I think Ian would add that he wouldn’t be so fab (!) without Ideal, their philosophy, their Designed to Order service plus the recourse from time to time to discuss the solution to a problem with Rob Lugsden, Ideal’s owner and the inspiration behind their designs and philosophy.

There is so much that could be said but a few quotes from Anne say a lot!

“The work of the horse improved and improved”

“horses are moving more freely & positively”

“moving more gymnastically”

“symmetry is important in training”

“it helps soundness”

“he’s happy & comfortable in flying changes and straight”

and very importantly

“we now feel comfortable asking horses to work”.

Watch the rider too!

Talking to Anne, something else stood out for me and is an aspect of the saddle world that doesn’t get so much focus…..the rider! One of the Styletta’s was made for an unusual shaped horse. He has huge withers then drops away. “Watch the rider” says Anne, “totally in the right place” and “the horse swings through the back, remarkable improvement”.

Overall, Anne said the riders “didn’t have to think about the saddle, their body stable, their back supported”. So everyone, watch the rider too when assessing a saddle!

Becca & Harry Potter have a Styletta

Anne & Embrujo have a Suzannah Monoflap

Liz and Lucitano have an Olivia

Lots of saddles built on a different tree!

Notable in the last few months has been the number of saddles built on a different tree…………Impala Pro on an H&C tree, Impala on GPX (Grandee) tree, Impala Pro on Gazelle tree, Working Hunter on GPX tree, Nyala on Jessica tree, Suzannah on Jessica tree and so on! The purpose being for the rider to have the saddle they want and the horse to have the tree it needs!

Never a dull moment at Saddles Worldwide!

.....from a 19" Suzannah on a Jessica tree for a tall man and his Lusitano stallion in the UK through to a tiny, tiny 13" seat/12.5" tree Ramsay for a very young little rider and her show pony in Australia and everything in between! Well, not quite everything, but it...

“It’s everything I dreamed of”!

......and Jackie went on to say "Huge thank you to you, Ian, and Rob! I didn't get it until 6pm, but still had an hour of daylight, so I ran out cleaned up a horse and rode in it. I LOVE IT! Thank you! " Jackie is the talent behind J S Training and Sales based in...
