HoofFlix Webinar Announcement
Featuring Dr Hilary Clayton – Exploring the Biomechanics of Equine Motion

HoofFlix is proud to announce a special live webinar with one of the world’s leading voices in equine biomechanics: Dr Hilary Clayton, BVMS, PhD, Dipl. ACVSMR, FRCVS.

This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from a researcher whose work has shaped the way we understand movement, soundness, and performance in the horse. For decades, Dr Clayton has combined scientific rigour with a deep appreciation for the horse in motion. Her work on gait analysis, core strength, spinal stability, and rider-horse interaction has influenced trainers, farriers, veterinarians, and rehabilitation specialists around the world.

This is not just another lecture. It’s a deep dive into the ‘why’ behind equine motion.

What we’ll explore together:

What truly drives equine movement — and how can we measure it?
How do changes in hoof balance or trimming protocols influence a horse’s stride and posture?
What role does tack fit, rider balance, or conditioning play in preventing pathology?
How do we connect performance with underlying biomechanics in a way that improves long-term welfare?
Who is this for?
Whether you’re a farrier, vet, physiotherapist, rider, coach, or simply a deeply invested horse owner — if you’re serious about understanding the mechanics behind movement, this session is for you.

Dr Clayton has a remarkable ability to take complex science and make it not only accessible, but directly relevant to your day-to-day practice. It’s this blend of technical depth and clarity that makes her such a powerful speaker — and why we believe this webinar is a must-attend for anyone working in the horse industry today.

What you’ll gain:

Practical, evidence-based insights you can apply immediately
A clear understanding of the latest thinking in movement science
A chance to engage in real conversation with one of the field’s most respected experts
CPD-certified learning for professionals across equestrian disciplines
