David Genadek is a Master Saddle Maker who has spent over 25 years perfecting his craft. All of his knowledge and experience has gone into his well known saddle manufacturing business, called ABOUT THE HORSE, Inc. David began is career learning the fine arts of carving and tool making. In addition, he is an expert in leather production and pattern design.

David is a student of Dr. Deb Bennett, a researcher in the field of bio-mechanical analysis of form in horses. In addition to his saddle manufacturing business, David also presents clinics in the U.S. and Canada on proper saddle fit. Clinics focus on how to place and secure the saddle without pain for the horse, properly choosing padding for a more comfortable fit and how the rider's position in the saddle effects the way the saddle fits the horse. He addresses the difference between men and women in saddle fit, and covers issues for both Western and English saddles. Clinics are educational in nature as well as a lot of fun, since Dave is well known for his sense of humor. David has been the subject of feature articles in issues of the popular magazines Horse & Rider and in Western Horseman. His goal is to continue educating others (and himself) in the complex process of fitting saddles to horses and their riders.

Come join us for an educational experience...your horse will love it!!!
