What is the name of the song?

[JCVdude]

@EliseogAsk It's called: in a blink. It's a Cindy original.

Looks like people from Fitjamyri Icelandic Horse Farm doing the demo, not from The Icelandic Horse Farm

[JCVdude]

It was actually 2 farms - Tolt Away Farm had were the brown horses and the other horses were from the Fitjamyri Farm.

@JCVdude Are there more Icelandic farms in BC? I'll be in WA starting sometime this summer, and I'm already looking at equestrian contacts for an "idle housewife" who's comfortable with horses from before, but is rusty. Any tips about reliable Icelandic horse farms or stables south of the border in WA would be welcome, too, if you have contacts there. I'm looking for a place where to train my horse handling, training and riding skills to the point I feel comfortable getting my own horse. :)

@tammipuu Sorry, I don't know the answer to more Icelandic farms in BC or WA. I wonder if you contacted the ToltAway farm, they might have contacts in WA? I know they were competing last year, so perhaps met some people from there? The links are in the description of this vid. :)

Icelandics are really neat horses. They can be like riding a 4WD sports car. They should have the smooth gait in addition to other horse gaits. Smart personalities, easy keepers, like to be with people in general, and can carry good weight for their size.

Glad to see folks out letting this breed be seen, as there are not enough of them in North America. They are a great horse breed and very popular in Europe.

The people who run these farms are very willing to take the time to show them off.

I love horses. So beautiful.

[JohannessenNatalie]

I think that was just awesome!:) Wish my Icelandic horse could do that !

[JoachimderZweite]

The horses are beautiful but they seem very small.

[misssarallie]

they run funny

How can I buy a horse, I am from GREECE

[tammipuu]

@desertduty watch?v=4NlzbQM_RaA this might be a good one, where you can see the horse happily keep its gait despite loose reins and the rider waving to the camera and all. :)
