“I am really enjoying this course. The information seems to flow really well and I seem to be able to absorb the theory so easily, then relate it to my horses’ hooves when I pick them up in the yard.
Thorsten is an exceptional tutor, who not only presents lessons which totally absorb me, but has the course and everything to do with it meticulously mapped out. The online quizzes and assignments are totally relevant to trimming hooves and get marked automatically.
I would rate this course 10 out of 10 and encourage anyone who wants to effectively trim their horses themselves to do the course. It is very good value for the fee.”

“Got in touch to organize a Scoot Boot fitting. Highlighted to Thorsten that I’ve been noticing discomfort in my horse, how he stands especially and he has become girthy. Thorsten explained to me the difference between unshod and barefoot. We are now two barefoot trims in, starting the transition and I couldn’t be happier with the service! After the first trim, when I did up the girth my boy yawned instead of the usual ears back! Very excited to fully transition my horse over to barefoot. Big thanks to Thorsten for his help!!”

“Yay! I stopped off to visit my grey horse. I got the most significant release indicators I’ve seen in ages….craned his neck all the way around, ears up and big licks and chews.  Moreover, he moved so much better right away and particularly in the am when we got a blanket of light snow to usher in a new era. Words are inadequate to express my gratitude. “

“I can not recommend Thorsten Kaiser more! He gave an outstanding seminar this week. I highly recommend him to anyone remotely horsey related. “

“Thorsten has been trimming my horses for over 10 years. In that time I have grown to appreciate his skill and understanding of hoof structures and anatomy. He has the ability to see things most of us wouldn’t in horse discomfort and movement, and the gift of being able to help the horse get comfortable again. His horsemanship and horse handling is second to none, as evident in how my horses behave when he trims their hooves.
He is constantly upskilling and is good at passing his wealth of knowledge to slow minded people like me, with patience and a few laughs thrown in for good measure.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Thorsten to anyone serious about changing the life of their horse, to ensure many years of better health and soundness to a good old age. Think soundness. Think Thorsten. “

“I contacted Thorsten when my gelding had hoof issues. His frog had almost completely collapsed. Barefoot trimming has made a huge improvement not only to the structure of my horses hooves but also in their movement and general well-being. Thorsten has now been trimming my horses for over 10 years. “
