The Neue Schule Difference
Where Science Meets Horsemanship
At Neue Schule USA, we believe every horse deserves a bit that does more than just work. Our mission is simple: create bits that respect the anatomy of the horse’s mouth, enhance communication, and improve performance.
Why We’re Different
- Patented Salox Gold: Warm to the touch and low in bioactivity, Salox Gold is engineered to keep the horse’s mouth calm and receptive. It reduces distractions from taste and temperature—so your aids come through clearly.
- Computer Aided Design: Using advanced CAD and finite element analysis, our bits are tailored to a wide range of mouth conformations. Whether your horse has a large tongue, sensitive bars, or fleshy lips, our designs offer comfort without compromise. Our bits are always made uniquely in each size and never shrunk or stretched.
- Evidence-Based Innovation: Every Neue Schule bit undergoes extensive field trials and laboratory testing. Only after earning the approval of top riders across disciplines does a design go into full-scale production.
A Bit With a Purpose
Education is our priority; we don’t just design bits – we study them. Every rider can transform their partnership with the right tools and we're here to make sure they can.
Our mission is to create bits that will honor our horses anatomy and commitment to performance.
Salox® Gold – Patented for Performance. Designed for the Horse.
At Neue Schule, we believe the bit should be more than strong—it should be smart. That belief led to the creation of our proprietary metal alloy: Salox® Gold.
Developed exclusively for Neue Schule, Salox Gold is a patented, science-backed material engineered with the horse’s comfort in mind. Its breakthrough composition was designed to create a warm, soft, and neutral environment in the mouth—reducing distractions and increasing responsiveness to the rider’s aids.
What Makes Salox® Gold Different?
- Warms Quickly: Horses accept the bit more willingly when it feels warm and natural—not cold or metallic.
- Soft and Lightweight: Its unique composition provides a gentler feel and promotes a quieter, more relaxed mouth.
- Low Bioactivity: Unlike standard metals, Salox Gold is low in taste and smell, keeping the horse focused on the rider—not the bit.
Backed by intensive trials and modern material science, Salox Gold has been a game changer for horses and riders at every level—from grassroots to Grand Prix.
COURSES
US COURSE
Thank you for your interest in the Neue Schule Bit Fitting Academy.
We’re excited to share that Neue Schule USA is developing a dedicated Bit Fitting course for students in North America, with plans to begin accepting applications next year.
Our upcoming U.S. program will offer the same internationally recognized curriculum as the UK Academy — combining science-based theory, practical assessment, and hands-on learning to support riders, coaches, and equine professionals in developing a deeper understanding of bit design and horse comfort.
Stay Informed: Be among the first to know when enrollment opens for our U.S. program. Use the form below to leave your contact details and we’ll send you updates as soon as applications become available.
UK COURSE
While the U.S. course is still in development, students who wish to begin their certification sooner may apply through the UK-based Neue Schule Academy, which occasionally accepts online and international participants.
If you’d like assistance connecting with the UK team, please reach out and we’ll be happy to refer you.
