Who's Marc?
Marc qualified as a farrier in 2006 after a four-year apprenticeship and passing the Worshipful Company of Farriers Dip.WCF examination. He then travelled overseas to further his farriery experience before returning to England in 2008 to start his own farriery practice based in Brewood, Staffordshire. Since this time, he has undertaken a range of CPD studies to further his farriery knowledge and provide the best possible service to both horse and owner.
He has a great interest in corrective farriery which led to him taking the Myerscough College foundation degree in farriery science, which is a new, innovative course aimed at assessment of farriery experience and knowledge along with new diagnostic technology to assess the balance of the horse's foot. At the end of this course, he took the Worshipful Company of Farriers AWCF examination which is an exam aimed at corrective farriery. A comprehensive knowledge of the horse's anatomy and remedial farriery is required. He then undertook the BSc(Hons) course to further his knowledge and expertise writing his dissertation on static and dynamic asymmetry in unbroken horses. He constantly engages in continual professional development to learn new techniques.
Marc has bags of experience working with all kinds of horses from happy hackers to the competition elite, and has a passion for ensuring both horse and rider have a great riding experience. He has owned horses himself all his life and rides/drives on a regular basis, competing at a variety of disciplines. He also has extensive experience of working with young horses and takes a patient approach to handling.
