Progressive Hoofcare Practitioners is hosting a two-part webinar series, Wear Patterns, What They Really Mean, on Oct. 5, 2025. Nick Hill is the clinician.

This two-part webinar series introduces a protocol for establishing patterns of movement and wear patterns.

Once you have established patterns of movement, it becomes easier to detect any abnormalities and identify and treat problems before they become serious. This session revisits and expands on the protocol taught in Part 1. Nick’s protocol will maximize the efficiency of biomechanics and reduce strain and stress on the horse.

Presenter Nick Hill is a natural hoof-care practitioner. His training began with the use of shoes for horses in June 2003, when he started working alongside qualified FRC farriers who taught him the Cytek method. He was a farrier with Cytek until 2006, when his training suddenly took a drastic turn because his feelings about hoof care resonated with Jaime Jackson’s work and research on wild horses. In March of the same year, he started training with the AANHCP training program. Along with Jamie Jackson, Nick’s mentors include Todd Jaynes and Richard Dewry. Nick has traveled and shadowed other practitioners around Europe (Italy, France and the UK). In 2009, he accepted placement in the Board of Directors for the AANHCP alongside Jaime Jackson, Bruce Nock, Ann Corso and Richard Dewry. Nick is a registered instructor with Liberated Horsemanship. He has taught clinics in Europe, Africa, America, and Israel, teaching professionals and horse owners to understand a different way of managing and maintaining their equines. V&T Equine Services aims to help anyone in the world through their clinics and educational offerings.
