Sleip releases “Trends” feature for longitudinal gait analysis
Introducing Trends! By visualising historical gait data, Trends feature provides insights for managing performance, well-being, and long-term health.
We’re thrilled to support this fantastic initiative by two of the most experienced professionals in equine biomechanics, Marie Rhodin and Emma Persson-Sjödin. They’ve created comprehensive courses tailored for veterinarians and equine professionals like physiotherapists, farriers, and trainers to deepen their understanding of objective gait analysis—and to learn how to effectively use Sleip.
These two-day courses provide practical knowledge and hands-on tools to help you integrate gait analysis into your practice. Get a 10% discount with a promo code Sleip10.
