Young horses are such a joy to train and so rewarding.

The second rider was spectacular. He truly mastered his seat, I really hope that he can mantain it.

A master dressage trainer.

Nice both rider and horse and of course the trainer..

2.58 when dressage queen - world no 1 make a joke. Finally able to see the funny side of her ☺️

The first horse seemed mostly content with its work. The second horse seems to have back problems, in my opinion. The whole time, during the ride, it was carrying its tail to right side, which - every osteopath/physio-therapist will tell you - is an indication for back-problems. The third horse was swishing its tail the whole time and the ears were pointed downwards very often. There are many studies from several universities that says both of these behaviours are signs of acute stress in a horse. And if I would have to desribe this ride, I would say that I found it not very harmonic. Just to point out: I am not against dressage-riding! Dressage is for the horse (to improve his health and conformation) and not the horse for the dressage (prices, fame, etc.).

I WISHD MY GF HOBBIED RIDING

Et le cheval, il est d'accord ? "Les animaux ne nous appartiennent pas et nous n’avons pas à les utiliser pour nos expérimentations, notre nourriture, nos vêtements ou nos divertissements, ni à leur faire subir la moindre autre forme de maltraitance".
