Cathy Morelli - BeSe - WEF Feb 07

This is Cathy schooling the Grand Prix gelding BeSe in the one's and two's (Flying changes), as well as the canter pirouette during her warmup for a dressage competition held at the Winter Equestrian Festival in Feb 2007. Then I have shown the actual part of the test where she performs these movements, with just one tiny boo-boo at the start of the two's. :) - Overall, .. it's AWESOME up and out work, done elegantly, and with shear grace. This is the epitome of what I strive for. Classically correct, showing that there is no need for rolkur to produce what the FEI RULES DO state. :) Enjoy! I did! (oh, check out Cathy Morelli's website at: www.cathymorelli.com and order those two DVD's of hers, explaining her "System" of training. It will be well worth it to you AND your horse!)

MB, I look at this DAILY .. to get my INSPIRATION! I'm glad I got this footage. Yes, the music makes me smile as I head to the barn all jacked up! Hits sits, from "Transition" work. <G>

Oh .. almost forgot your other question. She didn't own a Friesian .. she just coaches those of us with them! (grin)

This past weekend I believe three judges had her in the 70's a couple in the high 60's giving her an average of 68.6% .. which placed her 4th behind Courtney King and Idocus, Tuni Page and Wild One, and Mikala Munter Gundersen, riding Galant Du Serein. Overall, she's on their heels!

Very nice! I've heard Cathy Morelli is "natural horsemanshp friendly" which I always love to see :)

I'll have to search to find some trot work as well.
