My father in law sent me this, it's AMAZING!! Even if you don't particularly like horses this video is worth a look. The things this horse can do are incredible and it looks like it's having a ball! It's over six minutes long but watch the whole thing if you can it gets better as it goes, if you make it to the end watch those hooves as moulin rouge comes on, every hoof beat is in perfect time to the music.

it's weird Libby it like a physical pain sometimes. Sometimes I just want to risk it, screw what the Drs say and just do it again, but logically I know it's dangerous and costly and I can't afford nor do I have the time to do it at the level I was 7 years ago. Doesn't help that about a year ago i lost my old dressage horse, Tec knew me and the routines so well that once I got him started on one i litteraly could just sit there and make sure we stayed on the right track use to drive my instructor mad as I didn't have to do any work and we won almost everytime I miss him even if he did spend the last 6 years of his life getting fat and annoying my father because I just could not let anyone take him.. sorry I am a mess tonight.

Thanks for that MB that was a fantastic dressage test. I only ever got to do 2 Freestyle tests and its not easy picking music to suit your horse. That was really well done (as it should be at that level)

 

ROLL ON OLYMPICS then i can watch it on tv instead of waiting 1/2 hr for it to download!

So cool, I love watching dressage and love white horses

 

When I was 13 I've entered a dressage competition (the lowest level ) and came as a last Actually, not completely last - there was a girl whos horse run away, so I guess she was the last one

I'm certainly not a horse person, I know nothing about horsie competitions or dressage and all that, but that was AWSOME! My sister shares the same horse sentiments as I do, but every four years, we make sure we watch the dressage at the Olympics (on TV of course) because it really is impressive... needless to say, I have forwarded the link to my sister!

If you think that was good Check out My Hero Stacey

Remember Zebra, no such thing as a white horse

They're called "greys" and if it's not grey then it's a creamino or an albino

What an amazing pair - I had tears pricking my eyes at the end too

Spine tingling isn't it!!!

we use to do this as kids with our ponies not as fancy but we could stop start and turn directions. we had to lean to ride and control the horse with a rope around it's neck before we got any tack. Sometime going bareback is still more comfortable for me! It was great skill to have. My dad breed and rode polo ponies some we could not do it to but most we could just go out into the paddock and jump on and ride, nothing better then riding silver... an old stallion we had he was so quite that I would go out and lead him to a fence post jump on and just take off across the paddock on him... it is an amazing feeling and a huge amount fo trust involved

But she does Reining without reins, so maybe they shoud call it something else

it is bareback reining ( reining is the style )
