How Noseband Position Affects Your Horse’s Way of Going

Where and how your noseband sits can dramatically influence comfort, breathing, and balance. Even a few millimetres too high or too low can create tension.

Effects of Incorrect Noseband Placement

• Restriction of jaw movement

• Resistance in transitions

• Poll tension

• Difficulty flexing

The Right Adjustment

Small position changes relieve pressure, improve contact, and support clearer communication during schooling.
