  • What kind of horse is that? What a beautiful creature. My friend has been involved with dressage for the past 30 years. I never really "got it" until now.

  • anyone who doesnt think this athlete horse would/could throw an absolute Fit during any test if he felt abused, is fooling themselves

  • and if this, were the original music to this test yed see a whole lot more than what ye see here

  • Everyone in international competion has multiple vet checks/constant surveillance as per what they do with thier horses. No one is ever exempt. Those who are competing for the gold are even moreso held by others constant supervision. I do understand why some felt her competition shouldntve won this but ye must understand that He, like all else in this competition, wrote his own Test, & he failed by his own test by seconds on certain moves, and THIS is why, he lost. Yes,His ride was beautiful

  • Anky is amazing

  • What was the real music?

  • Amazing rider & horse! My idols! this is what got me into Dressage this video :)

  • 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.

  • @FireWhisp yeah and still she competes

    please understand that i`m against rollkur and other abuse

  • @14imke and so is anky

  • @FireWhisp i sead i think because it was my opinion

  • COME ON PEOPLE ARE YOU REALLY THAT FUCKED UP TO WATCH THIS VIDEO JUST SO YOU CAN COMMENT ABOUT ROLLKUR AND ALL THE SHIT AROUND IT?!

  • @FireWhisp FINALLY someone who understands!! :D

  • what anky do is horrible and animal cruelty!She do hyperflexion all the time and it hurts me to see this poor horse!Her methodes are abselutly unacceptable!If you think shes a good rider just inform yourself about Hyperflexion or LDR. she thinks she do good thinks for her horse like stretching but the horse cant breath right and has a lot of pain in this position.Its very bad for the horses health and thats whats important!Everyone who use this method has no compassion and should been punished!

  • @Missente96 i think if the horse can`t breath right she wouldn`t compete with him

    anky has a vet to check her horses to you know : \

  • Salinero is what, 17-17.2hh? She has alot of energy and power to control. She's not the only rider out there that rides with the curb tighter than some of the other riders, and she's not the only person who uses rollkur! Why are you only picking holes at Anky?

  • i got a really angry response from some 15year old a whiloe ago because of my comment here. i'm too lazy to search for what exactly i said but fact remains: anky is a disgusting loser that reduces animals to sporting equipment. people should ride because they love horses and not have horses because they want something to ride on. i'm so happy for my pony that she has a good ife because she is not being abused for status.

  • just incredible to watch!!! amazing!!!

    gorgeous horse!

  • What I've been leaving on the "western" sites: Please...spend 7-8 minutes and watch this: XYZ (link to a Gold Medal site) Going in a circle is lots of fun....try to make your horse canter....oh....wait...."lope" in one spot is almost impossible.

  • that Breyer Horse doesn't do him justice! AMAZING horse! Such a handsome mover <3

  • What music are u using?

  • What music are u suing?

  • yes. nice ride. but did you see how she work with her horses sometimes? ever? low deep and round. hyperflexion. so. if you know that, you dont say wonderfully riddden.

  • Anky  van Grunsven.. dan denk je toch aan Brabant?

    dandenkjeaanbrabant.nl

  • yeah great Music^^

  • Hi- Love what you've done with this music!

    I have searched for these songs as they suit my Inter 1 horse for his new season Freestyle but I can't find a match. Did you mix these up or how do I find them?

    Thanks!

  • @mcintyreanna I love this music too. Please let me know if you find them and what they're called! Thanks

  • @FireWhisp Yeah I know that this isn't her gold medal ride. And people can still make it to the olympics if they abuse their animal. She uses hyperflexion when she trains but not at shows. Thats why she won. I bet if Andreas Helgstrand didn't make that one mistake he would've won. And btw I will "let ye know" when I intend to make it to the olympics. Might take I a while but I'm working on it. So shut up..I wasn't looking for an argument, just stating an opinion. Have a great day. :-)

  • @edlovehorses "she trains with hyperflexion, "but not at shows""...how would the horse just suddenly be correct? seems like bullshit to me..just saying

  • @alzar11 ye say she trains with hyperflection yet her performances are watched carefully by multiple advanced Judges, who WOULD say and even suspend her PERMANENTLY, if she did those things in public. Now, given the level of her competitions, there is ZERO possible way that Hundreds of Judges wouldnt KNOW if she were in fact being abusive. Ye are just another anky hater, as are many jelous gold metal losers today

  • @MystSilverDragon have ye EVER seen such a ride since, even last year? NO< ye havent! and if yhe say ye have then ye are lying Lol period

  • @alzar11 as a matter of fact what one does in training is VERY easily seen in worldwide competition, so what ye say is untrue. No One EVER makes it to the gold in olympic worldwide comeptition without every single eye in dressage closely examining thier every move. Ye have no idea what international or worldwide competition involves via being constantly survailed

  • @alzar11 no one is suddenly perfect at any world cup competition

  • @MystSilverDragon when did i say the horse was perfect? i said correct. and seriously get a life.

  • @alzar11 Ive been managing dressage shiows for years, Dressage IS me life. dont tell me to get a life, whippersnapper

  • @alzar11 because her theory is that you train harder than you preform. there preforming is easy because the horse is used to training on a harder level. she has a good theory. even though shes wrong you cant blame her for ignorance.

  • She definitely didn't deserve to win the gold. Have you seen her train..hyperflexion!!

    If you want someone to look up to look at Andreas Helgstrand and Blu Horse Matine

  • this song is just perfect to be a dressage-music *_*

  • Wow They are just... Amazing

  • great horse and rider!

  • super ruiter ma geen hart voor paarden

  • Love this <3 Perfect combinations

  • whats the name of the first song??

  • Hate anky van grunsven !!

  • I don't even see why this is Prison Break music.. It's Requiem for a Dream

  • us Angeles can do it better it''s in the are souls and are horses souls for they are not fleshly harder faster hader faster i't is a hard and painful dance

  • Hello miss hyperflexion

  • the horse is doing a very good job, i love the music!

  • (L), love the music!

  • that horse is rocking out to the music and is enjoyin it. xD

  • aha i got to may thumbs down, sorry buds didnt know it was that big o deal, i dont know anything bout itso just ignor me :p

  • You can only say that if you've never ridden a horse. :/ This is a great and challenging sport. Much better than those things like soccer and basketball they try to pull off as a "sport"

  • @HawkstarOfficial Well..actually I do have to agree with you. I have played soccer all my life, and I ride horses and I have to say the horses are many times harder than any other sport I have played. Anky Van Grunsven is just an amazing horse and his rider is amazing too. I..I would never be able to do that..ever. haha

  • @HawkstarOfficial I definitely agree. Every single ride I sweat like crazy; whoever doesn't think its a sport obviously hasn't tried it - they might have sat on a horse, but they certainly havent *ridden* one. And it takes INCREDIBLE muscle, especially for complicated (and amazing!) stuff like this. You also have the variable of another living thing you're trying to cooperate with, not at all like kicking a ball.

  • @sunsetprairiesky

    Exactly. Kicking a ball, you know what you and the ball are going to do, especially if you know gravity and impulsion which most sportsmen do. With a horse, you're not sitting on a machine where you press a button and, "oh, I gotta do this" it takes real time and real dedication, without both you're hopeless. Not to mention, this sport is has an actually thrill that comes with the danger. *And* you love the horse, which makes it all the while... This is the best sport there is

  • @HawkstarOfficial Totally agree ^^

  • @HawkstarOfficial You're right. I can play basketball and soccer. But I am horsebackriding now for a couple of years and it much harder than the ordinary sports. You have to be coordinated and have to think about what you do and it's just a wonderful sport and I hope to become better at it every week :)

  • @HawkstarOfficial you forgot to mention rugby/football :)

  • @HawkstarOfficial Are you fucking kidding me????? Yes this is a sport, but so is basketball and soccer!!!!! That's what people think of when they think of "sport"! At least you actually move more in them!

  • way to misspell retarded, idiot. I'd like to see you do this.

  • yes! a douche bag that corrects peoples spelling on youtube comments, aha, sorry for the typo :p

  • yes! a douche bag that actually needs people to correct simple spelling mistakes. That obviously wasn't a typo, you just didn't know how to spell retarded. And don't call me a douche. You're the one criticizing a sport you have never done, and will never be able to do so shut the fuck up.

  • k sounds good :p retard

  • @kitkatmany

    dressage is probably one of the most hardest sports in hrose style.... we'd like to see you do this....

  • @kitkatmany You are a retard, considering you can't even spell the word. Why are you even looking up dressage if you hate it? You obviously have no life LOL

  • she forgot to tell me, if ye do well, everyone else WIll despide ye LOL

  • As My riding mentor told me yrs ago, just relax, think, and ride your horse for nothing more, than the pure magic and enjoyment/fulfillment of that, because in the end, thats all that will matter.

    She was Right :)

  • psh you try it. you couldnt make that horse take one step. anky is in the top 5 in the WORLD what are you in?

  • @TrueColours044 Ah, but is she anywhere near the classical masters like Dr Klimke, Phillipe Karl and Christine Stuckelberger? Her training methods have made her a pariah in the dressage world....

  • @dannyboy1606 Obviously, if you tried it for even just one day, you would lose a lot of the fat off your ass accumulated from spending your days leaving offensive comments on Youtube.

  • @dannyboy1606 honestly, i think you are the most PATHETIC person ever. Get a life.

  • The song is also from twilight/new moon! :D

  • Watch TVShows like Anky van grunsven - Prison break music freestyle at  W W W . TV-Vide . NET

  • what is the song name ? ;D

  • @Aliis14 look at the info ..

    requiem o´for a dream and prison break

  • @ HORSE

    I think you should learn more about horses before you post..

  • This is outstanding. I think all freestyle dressage should aspire to be this dramatic...but she didn't actually use this music? That's too bad, but awesome job editing.

    I wish the video was less shaky, it would be perfect.

  • that horse is absolutley beautiful. the only work needed with him is his piaffe

  • super leuk!

  • Comment removed

  • sallinero is amazing but moorlands totilas is a machine he is totally unreall x

  • Moorlands Totilas is like THE greatest horse on the planet!

  • yes he sure is, but this is not Totilas;)

    this is salinero (i think:D)

  • @melikesapplejuic

    this horse is Keltec Salinero... hes a beauty

  • Comment removed

  • She looks so awesome on Salinero x]

  • Temple yu only post against anything I love or promote its that simple trho yu Know ZERO about dressage

  • Hey go6go6go6 du hast recht mit dem dressur das dass die dressur fürs pferd da is und nicht anders rum....

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Bullshit.

  • hi!

    is it possible for U to send me this music because I realy like it I find it realy beautyful. Thanks.

  • Simply amazing.....

  • Die Dressur soll das Pferd, gehorsam auf die Hilfen machen und es gymnastizieren. (Dressur ist fürs Pferd, nicht das Pferd für die Dressur) Wenn ihr Pferd tatsächlich in dem klassisch richtigen Weg ausgebildet worden sein sollte (was ja eher nicht der Fall ist) wieso kann sie mit diesem armen Geschöpf nicht mal eine Ehrenrunde reiten ohne runterzufallen???

  • Anyone that says Anky doesn't love her horses, screw you. Obviously, if she didn't, I don't think they'd be that well-trained, and perform that well. They arehealthy, fit, beautiful, and intelligent horses that Anky knows and loves. And PONYf3N, you're an idiot. People who do dressage areactually talented riders. People who just trail ride, are sitting on the horse looking pretty. Us dressage people actually know what we're doing and have talent, so screw you too.

  • @SimplyCrazy1996 well, I know MY horse won't deal with me pulling his head to his chest.... so I don't think that her horses like it that much.

  • @StormValleyStables if u looked salinaros head is not to his chest

  • @101Ilovehorses that doesn't matter, the horse is still pulled into the contact insted of pushed up into it

  • Comment removed

  • hands down she is the best dressage rider

  • fantastyczne.

    mie moge sie napatrzec...

    i jeszcze ta muzyka... magia ;)

  • you cannot get beautiful movement like that from a horse unless there is a trusting bond, Anky is an amazing rider, she can communicate to her horse better than any human could communicate to another person

  • @naturalhorsemanship4 Actually you can. Salinero is an outstanding example of excellent breeding for movement and type. He naturally moves like that. Her training methods are anathema to dressage. She is scored so well because she rides beautifully and her horses move so expressively, not because her training is great.

  • @platypussy79 Let Me rephrase that, You cannot capture movement like that repeatedly while riding a horse just by breeding. You can pick the most expressive dam and sire, with the strongest and most fluid moving joints and best dressage conformation you can find, but that does not mean the horse comes out knowing level 4. There are years of training and practice put into every horse and rider that can make a name for themselves. Hence the reason this is a sport and a career.

  • @naturalhorsemanship4 Couldn't agree more. GP dressage takes years and years of training and Anky's horses are clearly trained to a very high degree. That being said, there is a school of thought (to which I belong) that Anky tries to shortcut those years by using hyperflexion.

  • i would feel more comfortable on blue hors matine just because she is bigger

  • and ive never liked how he moved

  • no offense to anky she is a wonderfull rider i just have never like salinaro at all it might beacuse when i ride horses with little spindilly legs i feel like im about to break them iidk i geauss i just like the kinda heavier horses

  • I sympathise, he's very responsive but a bit of an oaf. I think he has q.a significant lateral sway in piaffe too. But as I said, wow that horse would do anything for her. What a sweetie, undoubtedly a real treat to ride.

  • If YOU, PONY applied to be MY student id tell you to go fly a kite because ckearly Youve NO IDEA what It TAKES to be a champion at ALL

  • Ive been competing for 17 Yrs, and managing rated shows for 9, and announcing nationally for 16, are you, going to tell me, that This LADY doesnt lavish her horses in Love? LOL pls......yuve no idea :)

  • those who say she is abusive haveNO CLUE, PERIOD and YES I KNOW

  • Anky kixks your arese and anyone else who seeks to say she doesnt love her horses and treat them as ROYALTY...I know Ive seen how she treats them behind the lines, those who say shes a monster or whatever donta know her AT ALL

  • Wonderfully ridden.  What a great pair. The horse is very calm and relaxed and is really enjoying his job. Not resistant or hesitant. the tow are as one.

  • @newimagetc

    van grunsven uses rollkur. that little bitch.

  • @JaguarsShadow94 no she doesnt she might do it once for a correction but ..

  • @newimagetc no, salinero doesn`t enjoy his job. anky trainswith rollkur, she doesn`t sit very well and salineros back and neck ist totally uptight

  • @avrillavigne1981

    If you look at his tail you can tell the oppisitte... If he didn't enjoy it, it would move a lot harder, if he didn't like what he was doing his tail would go way higher to both side, and most of the time also agains his back. He is just going with his tail at the rithem he is going, and in the air, not against his body...

    And his ears, are standing to the front. Yeah there are parts that you are rigth, but most of the time the horse loves what he is doing.

  • @hildelover

    And maybe this isn't naturelhorsemanship, but if you look at youre horse when he is outside, he does the same things when he is happy, or nervous cause somthing he doesn't know is passing by. It can be that it isn't naturel that the horse does al that in a row, but in the wild, he does do those things...

    And to be honest, i don't believe in natural horsmenship, i don't think that you can ride a horse and geteverything out of it with that.. And he does love it...

  • @hildelover evey horse is inimitable and some horses are trained with rollkur amd smooch with her rider, during other horses know that they're hurt and attack ther rider.

    salinero is trained to move so but i you look at the piaffe, you see, that his hindquarters are not going under his balance point.

  • @avrillavigne1981 His ears are forward the whole time he's preforming, apart from when he flicks them back to listen to her... you can't say he doesn't enjoy what he's doing. His neck isn't up tight at all, its actually called BEING ON THE BIT.

  • @AshleighM82 have ver heard about something called rolkur, hyperflexion or LDR? she does ist, she thinks ists okay to do that. Anky is just a piece of s**t

  • @avrillavigne1981 Rollkur isn't used during competitions, as I said - All the movements used during PREFORMING are NATURAL.

  • @AshleighM82 i know, but she uses rollkur when she warms her horses up

  • @avrillavigne1981 Yeah I know she uses rollkur and I don't agree to it but I look up to Anky and look at what she has achieved. If you don't like Anky why are you watching videos of her??

    And care to share what ???

  • @AshleighM82 i watch videos of her to convince everybody that shes not a great rider but just awful. Because of the rollkur, the muscles get uptight andthe movements look convex.

  • @avrillavigne1981 Her training methods don't make her a bad rider, she's a very good rider actually. You can't be a crap rider and succeed like she does. Also, everyone who works with horses will know that if a horse doesn't want to do something, they won't do it! We all know how she trains her horses and we don't need people trying to tell us that she's a bad rider because its not true. If you don'tlike her, don't watch her videos, its quite simple really.

  • @AshleighM82 horses don't know, that they are much stronger than we are. Rollkur ist not a natural position for horses. She forces them, she breaks them. Watch Emma Hindle an Lancet Aachen 2009 and then watch Anky and Salinero Aachen 2009. Why do you think ist Salineros walk so uptight an bad? In my opinion is a bad rider somebody who rides Rollkur an thinks that's okay. Everyone makes mistakes but if you do, you should try to correct them and do it better next time.

  • @avrillavigne1981 I'm well aware rollkur is not natural and personally I have never ridden with my horse behind the vertical. Anky isn't going to change her training methods so I don't know why people are going on about it. And like I said earlier if you don't like her, stop watching her videos.

  • @avrillavigne1981 Also, a question for you: Have you actually ever ridden a big heavy 17hh+ wb ?? A lady who lives near me breeds them and I ride them for her and you have to work waay harder to get them listening to you and getting them responsive compared to say, a thoroughbred. I own and ride a tb and he is alot more sensitive than a wb! Before you critisize Anky, try doing what she does and see how hard it actually is.

    P.S. I'm not saying I agree to rollkur either

  • @AshleighM82 i've been riding dressage for over 20 years now an own a 17.5hh wb mare. She ist very sensitive and in the flying changes it's enough to put the leg three cm behind the girth and she changes. anky holds the kerb to tide, look at HipHop Kur Anky van Grunsven and Keltec Salinero by Romana3344.

  • @avrillavigne1981 I know how she holds a curb and maybe it's because Salinero is strong???? She's the most successful dressage rider ever and not everyone agrees with her training methods but you can't please everyone.

  • @AshleighM82 but you ride with curb to give more sensitive orders to the horse. It's not to pull and pull and pull. When you hold a curb very strong, you can break the horses jawbone

  • @AshleighM82 In my opinion, forcing a horse into a postion that is unnatural and causes horses to grow extra calcium on their skull and collapse their trachea makes her a bad rider :)

  • Disgusting. Rollkur. Anky van Grunsven is a loser that does definitely not love her horses but the positive attention that she gets from people that have as little regard for animals as she does or that don't know what is going on. And seriouly, she looks so stiff sitting on that horse, I'd be embarrassed to trailride looking like that.

  • its not disgusting, excuse you... she does not look stiff either. and uhmmm she definitely isn't trail riding? maybe thats why this is a dressage video? duh? hint: shes not trail riding and prob doesnt trail ride

  • luvmypercheron, you're not only disgusting, you're apparently also an idiot. She's not trailriding,DUH!! Anyone with an IQ over 65 would have been able to understand what I was saying. I'll help you: I'd by embarrassed to look that stiff doing trails as she does doing dressage. And she is stiff as hell, the rollkur queen. Repulsive. And true,probably doesn't do trails. That would be fun and horsemanship, after all, nothing for a loser that degrades horses to sporting equipment.

  • Oh God... I just looked at your channel. "Horsemanship"... WHY is that word on your channel, other than to mock it maybe (or maybe you don't understand it) when you condone and celebrate something as disgusting as Anky's animal torture? Maybe you should learn a little about horses, their nature, riding and all that comes with it, and then watch the video again & maybe you'll get it.

  • you have no idea what horsemanship is you twit. if your calling anky a loser, lay offa the crack buddy. you have no CLUE what type of horsemanship dressage is, and exuse her for looking like a PROFESSIONAL, and not a messy bum "trailriding", like you do. how dare you.

  • @PONYf3N

    1. Anky Van Grunsven is not a loser as she is a world champion.

    2. If Anky didn't love her horses or have a partnership with her horses they wouldn't preform like this for her.

    3. Trailriding doesn't invlolve RIDING at all. You sit on a horse and thats about it.

    4. F*** off and get a life.

    Cheers !

  • Which song is it on 1:30 ??

  • The art of warfare on horseback, once mastered, beautiful

  • they are a really good team and if the horse didn't like it they wouldn't be that far. you can see it in show jumping as well. there might be horses with all the needed abilities but when the horse has no fun jumping over fences it will never make it. the same with dressage. and honestly: tell me one think in the 21th century that is natural...

  • @nanna1114 Uhm actually dressage of this level is preforming all their natural movement that they would do in the wild. Go to google and look up the word "Dressage" and learn something before you critisize it.

  • sieht eig ganz cool aus, aber meinste das denn pferden das auch so viel spaß macht? Ich glaube nicht.....lg

  • all u people who are being horrible about anky are just fucking jelous u cant ride like her!!

  • i totally agree with that

  • Can't you fuckers leave poor anky alone for god sake if you dont like her riding dont watch her videos!

    dont be spitfull aguring cunts!

  • Ahahaa, way to put it bluntly XD

    But I agree with you.

  • @joey45657 I agree it pisses me off how people who hate it watch her videos, they have no life.

  • SHES VERY GOOD BUT I DONT LIKE HER STOPS

  • was ich bei ihr super finde, ist die musikauswahl. da ist sie echt die beste bzw. da trifft sie absolut meinen geschmack. alles andere finde ich nicht super und das pferd wohl auch nicht, wenn man beachtet, wie es mit dem schweif schlägt...
