Dressage Training Level 1 *open to comments/critique*

This is one of my private lessons that I had over break with my instructor to prepare for my first NODA Show Season. I am going to be doing Training Level 1 & 2. This is Spike, who I like to refer to as my Marshmallow Pony ;)

I have other footage from the same lesson when we were working on getting a connection and I will edit that video later and put it up. I just didnt want to edit these ones so you guys can hear everything from the lesson. I will be putting the Training Level 2 test up later as well! :D So please comment and critique! Thanks so much!

Thanks! Unfourtunately I dont own him, he is a schoolie at the barn I ride at but I am working with him on his Dressage stuff. He is an American Quarter Horse :)) & color doesnt normally affect their price but if its more of a rare color than it might make the price go up a bit as well as the other factors you mentioned. Thanks again!

Thanks so much Sierra! :D I will definitely remember to work on that for my next lesson which may unfourtunately not be until March.

yay finally hanns! take advantage of those corners! the judges like them nice and deep! also remember that the moves are properly executed when your shoulder passes the marker. wait until you reach e or b to start your circles :))

I like your white horse, what breed is it? Does colour affect the price of horses or is it only just the age, type and structure of them? I hope you passed tour level trainings!
