Heidi Zorn, a distinguished leader in the equestrian industry and advocate for equine welfare, will share her insights on arena surfaces, materials, basic biomechanics, and some differences in the disciplines. With her extensive experience and innovative approach to equestrian sports, Zorn’s participation promises to offer valuable perspectives and practical knowledge to attendees.
Ms. Zorn will be speaking on Friday August 23 beginning at 3:20 pm. The symposium organizers asked Ms. Zorn to cover two time slots; the first will focus on why different disciplines require specific surfaces, including basic biomechanics and surface mechanics.
It will cover the structural and material differences across disciplines and current testing or procedures for high level competitions. After a short break the program will continue with footing surfaces for Dressage and Jumping, with in-depth material specifications, descriptions, and base designs tailored for each discipline.
“I am honored to be part of this symposium and to contribute to the ongoing dialogue about advancing equine health and performance,” said Zorn. “The Equine Sports Medicine Symposium is a vital platform for sharing knowledge and fostering collaboration among professionals who are dedicated to the well-being of our equine athletes.”
