You’ll get two modules with nine video lessons total.
Module 1:
The first five lessons teach you everything you need to know before you start trimming, including:
What tools you really need (and which you don’t)
Basic hoof anatomy (without going too deep!)
Which parts of the hoof to trim and which to leave alone
Parameters to avoid making your horse sore
How to check hoof balance

The next four lessons walk you through example trims on four different horses, each with unique hooves. I talk through every step as I show exactly what I’m doing and why.
This is a great place to start if you want to be more involved with your horse’s hoof care but are not ready to be solely responsible for all the trimming. You’ll walk away with practical knowledge you can use right away to support your horse’s long term hoof health.

I am a first-time horse owner and I am one who deep dives everything possible on a subject l, horse ownership included! From basic horse husbandry, equine nutrition to hoof care, I want to be my horses best advocate. My boy was diagnosed navicular and has some other hoof issues going on, so I wanted to be as best prepared to care for him as possible. I've watched all the videos on YouTube on barefoot trimming, read many books and have enjoyed nerding out on all things hoof care. (The hoof is an incredible structure!) When I received access to the "Hooves By You" mini course by HoovesByViolet, I was so excited to get clear, concise, step by step instructions on trimming my boys hooves. She covers everything you need to know in regards to properly caring and trimming for your horse's hooves. Her course gave me the confidence to finally begin rasping in between his trims. My confidence extends into my general knowledge of hoof care now and knowing what to look out for during my daily inspections. I highly recommend the mini course, it's well put together, the lessons are straightforward and easy to follow. Everything is explained so well! No gatekeeping here! I continue to learn every day, but this many course drastically improved my confidence in my own abilities to maintain my boys hooves. (Good trimmers are few and far between where I live!) My goal this year is to completely take over his hoof care, and my trimmer is on board with this. Thank you again for putting this mini course together! It's been incredibly helpful and informative in my horse ownership journey.
