Alta Escuela

[kima091]

I agree - strapped into an unatural position & too much use of a whip. Not the free-moving, joyous, expressive paces that the Pre is famous for. My Pre is also panicked at the site of a lunge-whip - and now I, too, understand why.

Now I sadly understand my PRE's stress from whip and longreins. were is the joy and trust from the horses...

This is not art and it is absolutly not horsemanship, forcsing, whiping the horses a PRE is a hard working horse who wants to do good, so why this way?

I realy dont like this style of training- It is very painful for the horses.

It is a sin the way these horses are being terrorized to attempt the airs above the ground. It is obvious by their nervousness and desire to get away they have been beaten into the work. Each jump is ill prepared and they are forced before they are balanced. Poor horses. Carol

Magnificent airs above the ground from the world's most majestic and noble breed..the Pure Bred Spanish horse. Bravo!
