Soundness & Symmetry 2026 Conference (Horses Inside Out)

Soundness and symmetry in the horse refers to the balance and harmony of the musculoskeletal system and its impact on how the horse moves. As owners, riders, trainers and therapists, we are all striving to ensure our horses are symmetrical and sound.

With the pressures of daily riding and competition, our training and care focuses on correcting any asymmetry in both horse and rider, as well as taking measures to keep the horse sound. Both symmetry and soundness are essential for optimal health, welfare and performance of horses. 

But how do we achieve soundness and symmetry  – is it just a case of correct training, management and therapy?

The Horses Inside Out 2026 Conference will take a deep dive into this topic and get to grips with what it is, what we need to alter in our management and training to achieve it, and what problems we may be faced with along the way. 

This dedicated equine science conference is a must-attend event for anyone who works in the equestrian industry. It’s a unique opportunity to hear from world-leading equine experts and discover the latest thinking in the equestrian world to improve the health and welfare of the horse. Delving deep into the world of equine anatomy and biomechanics, and how it can help us improve the training and care of horses.
