  • Great rider 

  • i love the way he doesnt hyperflex his horse (:

    i hope to become this good with my little mare someday... i have plenty of time though, seeing as she is seven and i am only 16

  • Just beautiful to watch, that Impulsion is amazing!

  • wow! nice mare with talent for passage and very good ridden! i´m training passage with ma mare too, but she isn´t that talented. 5* for you both

  • beautifully ridin its amazing wish you the best of luck when you compete deff first place to me

  • I WISH SOMEONE WOULD POST a comment on how to get the horse to ride so straight... do you jab them with the spurs on each side...or what....it doesnt just happen. There must be a video out there that shows the initial training involved to bring a horse on up to this level?

  • When you ride with the proper position and you spend time getting your horse to be responsive they will ride straight. Think about the biomechanics of your body and the horses body.

  • When I start a horse rather than trying to ride "20 meter circles" and "straight lines" I just take them out in the field and work on letting them find their balance under the rider, softening to the aids, lots of transitions and serpentine-type stuff. Once the basics are there and the horse is "on the aids" you just look straight ahead and it happens. DO NOT jab them with the spurs on both sides.

  • Look up Colleen Kelly. I attended one of her clinics a few years ago. She is great at teaching rider biomechanics. Often times a horse has trouble with "straightness" because the rider is having trouble riding straight. We are intrinsically right or left handed/sided after all.

  • @Friendly9593 you have to think about what is comfortable for the horse when you ride it.. Never jab them with the spurs unless the horse doesnt respond to your (very light) leg and seat aids. And be patient, it takes time to accomplish. Also you need to ride with an even contact, and do exercises such as shoulder-in and travers. Or perhaps you need to improve on your own position and straightness first

  • I so love the way you ride.....I hope to reach that goal someday of your relaxed and great composure....bravo!!!

  • Beautiful! Well done!

  • WOW !!! You are one talented rider ! Very rare to see someone like yourself on youtube. I hope you keep your kind ways and your love for the Horse throughout your brilliant career ahead of you. Your mare is magnificent , what a pair ! but I suspect that you can make any horse look good !

  • I agree what a fanstastic rider . Hope you always keep the love of the horse because it shows. Nobody can ride so well and being a jerk with horses. The bond you have with the mare is clear

  • Beautiful & Inspiring!

  • Kuin vanha ville vaurio on en oo saanu koskaan selväää

  • Whats the move at 1:04 called? I taught my ex racer it after 4 month of having him but i have no idea what its called so we renamed it a turn on the hindquarters! :D

  • it was a half pirouette at the walk. it could also be called a turn on the hidquarters or a turn on the haunches. both of these terms are correct also.

  • Kas kas, Ville ratsailla. Ei kyllä ole uusi näky:D. Mahtaako tää olla Lohjalla kuvattu?

  • very nice. Is this your horse?

  • Very nice! Well done. I like the picture at the end too.

  • Beautiful! Both you and your horse are extreamly leggy! ahah. Very nice.

  • like the horse!
