- **Event Name**: Bit and Bridle Fitting Clinic with Stephanie Brown-Beamer
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 17 Apr, 2026 at 09:00 am – Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 05:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Join us April 17–18 at the National Equestrian Center in Lake St. Louis, MO for a two-day educational clinic focused on one of the most important — and often overlooked — aspects of riding: proper bit and bridle fit.

A horse communicates constantly through the bridle. When equipment fits correctly, that conversation becomes clearer, quieter, and more effective for both horse and rider.

This clinic will feature LANTRA-certified bit and bridle fitter Stephanie Brown-Beamer, who will be conducting live fittings and sharing her expertise on how proper fit influences comfort, responsiveness, and performance.

📅 Event Dates:
April 17–18

📍 Location:
National Equestrian Center
Lake St. Louis, Missouri
