    Marc-Antony Lussier CJF, sat down with Brian at the World Equestrian Games in Aachen, Germany to talk about all things farriery. He was there cheering on his partner, the accomplished Dressage Rider Camille Bergeron, as she rode for Canada. They discuss his journey to the CJF and his strategies for overcoming the more challenging components of the exam. They also talk about some difficult cases he has worked on at home while getting immediate objective rider feedback from Camille. Marc-Antony's keenness to learn and improve has taken him far in this trade in a relatively short period of time. And that journey is only beginning. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

    Aug 10 2026

    In this episode, I sit down with Matt Hillegas, CJF, a farrier from New Windsor, Maryland, whose nearly 40-year career has been shaped by a commitment to never stop learning.

    Matt shares how pursuing his AFA certification after decades of shoeing challenged long-held beliefs and opened the door to becoming a tester and board member. We also talk about shoeing hunters, jumpers, and equitation horses, how small changes can make a big difference in performance, and why slowing down has made him a better farrier.

    Matt shares many tidbits of wisdom he has accrued over the years as well as his philosophies on teaching and learning new concepts.
