  • Anky van Rollkur.. I don;t know what Monty is doing associating with someone who regularly uses over-bending when he is so adamently against it.. ??? :(

  • @hoofbeatLiquid I was just thinking the same!! I don't understand anything of it... If I was him I wouldn't want to participate with this...

  • Ohh yay! Daar was ik toen ook, ik baalde er van dat ik geen filmpje had gemaakt, thank god heb ik die nu toch gevonden! (:

  • 2 devils together...

  • I will tell you the sercet of Rollkur, trainers use this to restrict oxygen to the brain of the horse the horses throax closes up. With less oxygen to the brain the horse then becomes calm and lightheaded and slows down because of to much carbon monoxide in the blood then the horse learns to be submissive to the rider's every comand because of fear of suffcation. Just like when a lion attacks a zebra it will go for the throax and then the drop down so liken these people to beasts of the feld.

  • @hoofbeatLiquid first of all i don`t know much about western to but

    come on! she`s just getting up on the horse and when she stops the horse she just pulls up the reins!

    then second monty knows what he`s doing, better than you or me

    i think you are just searching for mistakes she makes. and thats sad.

    (my own opinion)

  • Ich find man kann Anky und Monty Roberts nicht vergleichen! Monty Roberts ist gegen Pferdequälerei und Anky reitet ROLLKUR!!!!!

  • I was there too, Monty is amazing!

  • Can't you read I never said she tried to stop others using it!!

    I have seen riders put their horses in to harder rollkur positions but they arent critised by you bastards!! You chose a target and you go for it full on!!

  • Give over and leave Anky b!! She is one of the few blamed for creating rollkur even though her husband has told her to do it ( he trains international riders) Anky is one of the few who have tried to stop using rollkur! although its effects are carried on!! Just drop it!! Shes a kind woman!!

  • @dis4fergie well she didnt say NO to her husband, now did she? and to my ears it sounds quite confusing that she´d try to stop other ppl from doing smth she keeps on doing herself? I´ve never heard her stating anywhere that she´s realized using rollkur is not right.

  • ich würde mich schämen mit dieser frau zu arbeiten!

  • Very Poor Skills and very sad that Roberts is working with such an evil woman together!

  • monty roberts is better better better than anky , anky is bat

  • Is anyone else sick of trying to watch horse videos and dealing with the Anti-Anky nazis? Give it a rest guys and save it for the rolkur debates... jezz

  • out to ruin every great discipline I guess =/

  • gibs sowas auch die kann auch mal ohne rollkurriten aber nur hier! und bei soner reiterrin klathschen ohhh nein echt schlimm

  • Wo siehst du sie hier ohne Rollkur??

  • Bet anky´s fingers were just itching because she knew she couldnt use rollkur-method in front of monthy,at least not with this horse..

  • I know that Anky is a big believer of letting the horse stretch and relax when schooling which is good?

  • you seriously think a user of rollkur thinks such way? yeah she believes in letting the horse relax and strecth.. like after over 15min of forcing the horse´s chin attached to it´s chest first!

  • I do not support the fashion of forcing your horse behind the vertical decreasing his vision and making him uncomfortable and stressed, but I am glad that ATLEAST Anky is responsible enough let her horses stretch frequently, her dressage tests are no where near 15 minutes long - not even 10 and scooling would (should anyway) be probably no more then 5 minutes of strenious work or new movements before a good stretch, and then continue with more short burst of schooling and stretching (we hope)

  • I didnt say her dressagetest is 15min, I said she uses the hyperflexion on her horse that long (even longer) when training. .

  • oh? Have you watched her school? if that's true then that isnt fair on her horses in any way..

  • I dont need to go see her school. I dont know how much you´ve watched anky-related vids here, but I´ve heard many people actually SEEING her perform hyperflexion on the horse over the edge.. through walk, trot, through canter.. and the vids I´ve seen, also speak for theirselves =/ Of course she STILL is a very talented rider, but like I saw one people mention: she abuses her talents by using rollkur the way she does.

  • that is a very good point indeed, I'm sure one day Anky will find a better way

  • she's doing great!

  • Wow- what a unique pairing! Anybody know where I can see more footage of Anky and Monty working together??

  • I love how he's like, "This isn't appropriate footing for a sliding stop."

    What does she do?

    Tries a sliding stop.

    AWESOME.

  • It doesn't matter where the reining is... Anky is a good rider and just like anybody else with half a brain... she can learn to do reigning too. And It's just my opinion... but Anky would prolly "whip your ass" at your own sport. She's not an idiot.

  • Actually, if you'd just study the method she's using, she isn't such a friendly and good rider as she looks.

  • I know the methods she uses. You can't tell me she isn't a "friendly" rider because she uses hyperflexion. It's a horse for god's sake. if it really really didnt like it, she wouldnt be on the horse for long. And she IS a good rider. She's extremely talented. Some people beleivve she takes it to far, but thats how you reach new heights in a sport. You know, at one time girls werent even allowed to ride horses... right now people disagree with hyperflexion.

  • "Some people beleivve she takes it to far, but thats how you reach new heights in a sport" So today we cant no more achieve new records without questionable methods? In other words, we´re going downhill backwards FAST :(

  • The methods she uses, in the way she uses them creates atheletes like no other. name one way one of HER horses has been hurt or harmed because of her use of hyperflexion. She wins for a reason. Open your mind a little.

  • Krack C. Gribaldi (not Anky's but trained by one of her former pupils). Countless young dressage horses-average lifespan of a young dressage horse in europe currently is 5. 5 years of age! Hyperflexion is huge over there in many big and commercial stables...I wonder if there is connection here..

  • Anky has indeed been accused of rediculous things by a German magazine years ago. It is proved to be false, so people BE UP TO DATE!

    The horse she sits on here, is not even hers and it would have protested if it didn't want to listen. She is the leader, but the horse feels fine under her lead; is not hurted or performing too heavy exercises.

    Also, Anky has achieved so much, she now steps down to spend more time with her family and enjoy horseriding without the disadvantages of topsport.

  • That aint even a horse trained by her + doubt this horse has been trained with help of rollkur, so of course the horse looks calm and relaxed under her here!

  • Actually they are collected. I think you should get some reining knowledge before you start complaining here.

  • Um, I ride Amiercan horses. I ride american DRESSAGE horses. I ride american REINING horses. Western pleasure is a waste of time. A horse is a horse, no matter where it comes from

  • nicely said!! :)

  • Anky, come on over to the good ole USA and try to show a reining horse. We will kick your flat ass all over the arena. The we'll set YOU up in rollkur and whip your scrawny self all over the arena to show how we train animal abusers here. Stupid bitch.

  • if i were monty id be ashamed to be seen with a cruel woman like her. she has been banned from competitive dressage for the use of electric spurs and rolkur! (im not kidding, google it!)

    i like monty though!

  • Um... Please show me where you read that! The woman's not a poster girl but she certainly hasn't been banned from competing. She's ranked 1st in the FEI rankings with Salinero and 4th with Painted Black. She wouldn't even be on the rankings if she was banned.

  • Sorry, People, but I do not understand what is the big deal about that ??? what is SOOOO amazing. She rides horses for a living, that is her profession, so yes, I would expect her to know how to seat in any saddle, english , western or no saddle at all .... and on any horses this is no BIG DEAL .... FYI : I do both dressage and western, Cowponies are very confortable and easy to seat especially in these biggo comfy saddles. So tell me again why it is a big deal ???

  • Anky is a very good and talented rider (obviously). She just can't stop abusing her abilities for something I'll probably never fully understand. Neither ethically nor physically.

  • That was awesome, both Anky and Monty are amazing, just as thousands of other trainers and riders out there are!!

  • Anky and Monty are both good at what they do, but every trainer is different, which is why there are so many trainers in the world! Anky is very impressive, and my draw dropped when I saw this. I ride Dressage, as well as western, but i've never seen an olympian do both so well!

  • Omg, she's dying to make some rollkur on that poor horse

  • lol

  • lol she did this before. Its not like its her first time.

  • I think Monty Roberts is a better trainer, but Anky is also good...

  • Both Anky and Monty are the very best in the world at what they do, so I don't think it's fair to say that.

  • Anky yes, Monty no.

    I have seen alot of Montys training and most of its just a bunch of BS. Craig Cameron and Clinton Anderson are much better trainers.

  • agaree!!! clint anderson can RIDE!!!!!

  • know your comment is 1yr old, but have to point one thing out: as trainers, monty and anky are total opposites. Monty isn´t trying to train amazing racehorses, he´s great in plain decent horsemanship and putting himself and the horse on same level, understanding the animal. In anky´s training it´s like a different universe. The two dont even speak the same language when it comes to "training".

  • I think Monty's real talent is in self-promotion. HorseWhispersAndLies (dot) com . And Anky is into the Rollkur thing which is of questionable virtue.

  • Amen. Haha

  • @SuperSydRebelsUpDust

    Anky is not a good Trainer!!!

    She train her horses with Rollkur -.-

  • She did pretty good for not really knowing anything else.

  • fallding123 - whats your problom? all she/he did was state there OPINION. then you attack them. gah i hate that.

    she did amazing. :)

  • is that REALLY anky??? wow thats funky, know ive seen everything lol.

  • She did SOOO well, for probably doing absolutely NO western riding at all!

  • lol i swear he said dont do a sliding halt lol! go ankyyyy shes amazing

    x

  • Emma8887 do u have anymore footage? this is great!

  • I have some other video's of Horse Event, I shall upload them :)

  • wow!!! is there any more on this???

  • well! well! well! to all the Anky haters she can't ride? what is she riding a western horse who also rides with one aid for a movement! Anky is such a natural horse women and Monty Roberts certainly enjoyed her riding his Stallion!

  • You took the words right out of my mouth! and people say she cant ride! she is amazing, brilliant ... and i am perhaps slightly envious of her talent!! =]]

  • falling123 - AGREED!! anky haters can stick it up there bum! although they'll find something else to say about this. But in my opinion, she can ride any horse in any decipline. She is both horseman and showman.

  • He did didn't he!! I thought it was very touching when he said it was a experience of a lifetime!!

  • Hahaha, shes much better in western then dressage. Always using her hands too much and here she is just relaxed. It´s a much better picture.

  • your pathetic! Western is totally different riding than Dressage! Dressage has to be more switched on, piaffing is a tense movement to achieve, you have to perform your best without blowing-up. western is the same! go back and study more on this Subject and then come back. Dressage and Western have proven to be the same in movemnts.

  • I walked a few years around in a GPdressage stable... I didn´t talked about the movement of the horse but I talked about Ankys riding style. Even a good dressage rider can ride with loose reins. Therefor everytime I see Anky riding she uses her hands too much and in this vid I like the way she rides. Just relaxed with loose reins, it really looks better to me.

  • look! dressage is all about connection from seat leg to hand without that, there is no connection. how can you aid a horse with loose reins? Western riding has loose reins due to the different bridle wear ie, long shank bits (severe) only if you abuse it! walking around a dressage stable is different to riding a Grand prix horse!

  • I not only walked around there >> I saw horses and even rode some of them that just could peform all high dressage elements with a loose rein. Sadly you also have GPstables where the horses are all cramped up and can´t peform any elements without strong contact. It´s just about the way you ride, make a horse or destroy a horse.

  • You just don't see the point.. do you?

  • I don't miss the point! Dressage is very simular to Western riding but with different tack! I ride Dressage not novice but training Advanced Medium. I am also learning Parelli and have been riding my horse in a Parelli Hackamore doing Advance Medium Movements..

  • of course there are differences beyond the tack, but you are right when you point out the similarities between diciplines. the movements are different, but western horses also benefit from dressage basics (as do horses in various other english and western diciplines.) clinton anderson agrees with certain accomplished dressage riders and has had them on his show, & tho ppl call reining the western dresg., the basics are very similar to pleasure horse demands

  • thats awesome! Anky is so good!

  • Been waiting for clips of this to come online :) thank you :) Monty seems to appreciate it too... great fun.

  • LOL! go anky
