A good saddle fitter is more than a saddle salesman. To become a saddle salesman, you only need good commercial values. To become a saddle fitter, you need a specialized training. You need to be educated in the anatomy and biomechanics of the horse, in pathology, conformation, training, rider influences and of course, everything about a saddle and a good fit. Everything for the wellbeing of the horse.
