  • thanks for all your comments about Antsje :o)

    I would like to point out that this video is 9secs long so not really long enough to make any informed judgement on her training! She was quite young in this video, her natural posture was to curl behind the bit so at this point we were trying to slow the trot down so she could balance herself and when she came BTV raise the hands to encourage her not to. As she got stronger the curling BTV became less. vid wasnt posted as a perfect picture ;o)

  • Okay, PLEASE tell me the secret to this nice, SOFT sitting trot!!!! Beautiful!!!!

  • Correct absorbtion of the movement ;-) My instructor (riding) is an Enlightened Equitation instructor which is based on classical methods and correct absorbtion of the horses movement. Of course a well toned physique and extra long legs dont go amiss either LOL!!

  • nice sit trot

  • Yep, wish I could ride her so nicely!!!

  • @tuyry1 You don't collect in your hands. You collect throught your seat and legs. And if a horse is cranked, they have no other choice. Thier owner is holding their head in place. I can count numerous Olympic level horses who are ridden improperly.

    So even if the horse is in pain doesn't mean he will just stop moving. He will begin to compromise and perform improperly.

    This isn't the worst form of cranking, no. But it's still cranking and it is still damaging the horse.

  • who gives a shit about the seat , that poor horse is in a head lock , below vertical ... how about that ??? is that spectacular or what .... get your priority straight people.

  • My horse also has a very bouncy trot, and because i haven't been been riding for a long time, i find it difficult to sit to it. Do you have any tips?

  • The seat is beautiful but his hands are waaaayyy too high, creating painful tension on the horse's mouth.

  • Black horses are the most beautiful.

  • @lindasp62 Amen! Haha
