About
TEC

Tamlaght Equestrian Care was bron with one vision in mind, helping the equine community ensure their horses are as comfortable and happy as possible while carrying their riders.

Horses were not designed to carry us and therefore a saddle needs to ensure our weight is correctly distributed without compromising the horses way of going or comfort. There is a lot more to ensuring a saddle fits correctly than just the width and length of it, but outside the correct fit there is our horses confirmation and rider bio-mechanics.  It is essential to take the whole picture, horse, rider and equipment into account.  

Here at TEC we assess the horse in hand and ridden. We have a range of facilities to ensure we can see the horse doing its preferred discipline and preferrably in a few different saddles to gain insight into exactly what helps your horse give you its best.
