@julie99nl This is high collection and the horse is actually lowering in it's hind end. If you are interested in understanding I highly recommend studying the Old Riding Masters. This is Dressage ridden for art not ridden for competition.
@shonabeth1 I wonder if you can direct me to an Old Riding Master that claims a 4 beat canter or even a backwards canter is for the physiological benefit of the horse? If a horses natural canter beat is 3, why train it to do 4? Is there some benefit ?
Loved it, balance and harmony ... thank you, I found this inspirational :-) Paul

The horse is so short and choppy strided? is that normal? He doesn't swing through his back at all, is that also normal?

@julie99nl These questions don't make sense to me...and sorry I was never intending to offend you. Happy riding.

Super job. This is one of the best videos I've seen. Great production, content and what a wonderful horse. It's magic.
