I think its funny how people can have the cheek 2 sit behind there computer criticising other riders when they havent even the balls 2 show other people how useless they are? This girl rides fine, maybe not grand prix material but she is learning, this is why we take lessons, no one is as good as they think they are just 2 let ye know?
just to say, a lot of dressage riders don't have their heels jammed down like other diciplines teach. This is because the stirrups are long enough for the leg to fall down and the hips to sink equally in the saddle, when you force your heels down you push the lower leg forwards and tense. Dressage riders often have their heels slightly below horizontal -not up and not forced down- just relaxed. & Obviously she needs to sort her hands out etc as said but that's the whole point. She's improving.
You people are so judgemental. I think she looks fine on the horse! Don't get me wrong, of course there is room for improvement, but EVERY rider has something they can improve on, not just her.. Like me for example, I don't have very independant hands, but I'm trying, and slowly getting better.
Besides, everybody who rides horses, know that it is not the easiest sport in the world. It is actually very hard, so there's no need for nasty and rude comments.
Dont mean to be funny here, but considering the fact he's trying to improve YOUR dressage maybe he should have chosen a rider who can KEEP HER HEELS DOWN!

Transitions are good, but the canter is really too slow. We can count a ''4 beat'' canter, not a ''3 beat''.

the canter needs to be more foward: there isn't enough jump and its not a clear 3 beat; its too 4 beat and the back hind leg is lagging
