Quantitative gait analysis in horses, on the highest level.

Foundation of the EGAS

The Equine Gait Analysis Society (EGAS) was established in 2022 to fill the gap between science and clinician in equine clinical gait analysis. The Equine Gait Analysis Society and its courses is a shared idea of dr. Filipe Serra Bragança and dr. Aagje Hardeman.

'We both did our PhD on the clinical application of equine gait analysis and noticed the enormous gap between science and clinician in this field. Knowledge was not readable or clinically useful for orthopaedic vets, neither was it organised in a structured matter.

This project is our joined dream. We will make all scientic knowledge understandable and useful for clinicians in such way that quantitative gait analysis will bring equine orthopaedics to a higher level!'

EGAS Course

During the EGAS (live) Course, you will learn, both in theory and in practice, all aspects around the clinical application of quantitative gait analysis. The program is lectured by academic and clinical experts from around the world, and is based on evidence-based content. 

The program runs over one year, and is composed of 5 modules of 2 days each, which you will need to attend live. All modules will take place in Europe. In between, you continue to study in your e-learning environment, in which you can find all course material, extra in-depth material, scientific papers to be studied for the examination, interesting links and an online community to ask questions and discuss cases with your colleagues.

Investment of additional time will be necessary for the preparation of the theoretical tests as well as for the final examination. More information?

EGAS Certified Professionals

EGAS Certified Professionals are allowed to display the EGAS Certified Badge. The badge is part of a wider campaign designed to help horse owners, riders, and trainers easily find clinicians who are properly trained in objective gait analysis in horses. 

All certified professionals meet the necessary standards in this field. These professionals also follow the EGAS Continuous Education, meaning that they stay up to date of the latest research, clinical applications and devices around equine quantitative gait analysis.
