Anna has had ‘Equestrian Reflection’ mirrors since 2013, appreciating them on all of her horses.
They are great for the younger horses when you need to make sure that they are staying straight, and also hugely beneficial with the more advanced horses when you need to check the positioning of movements such as half pass and shoulder in. We also regularly hold rallies for the local pony club at our yard, and everyone loves them and comments on how great they are.

The quality of the Equestrian Reflection mirrors is second to none. Even standing at the end of our arena, you can clearly see the reflection. They have not moved in all the weather that our school is exposed to (which has included storms that have flipped field shelters over!). They also align beautifully, which is something you never see with other companies.
