I appreciate the explanation of proper technique. It’s very helpful.

I think she’s just showing the doffrence in how your seat affects your horse don’t jump on her back we’ve all horsed arround to see what works

That was a very annoying way to teach

Such a good boy🤍

Best sound in the world!❤

So what’s the point? Loosening up the core is uncomfortable for the horse?

Perfect- I have horse that does that! Thanks

I feel the horse that I practice with is so fast when trotting. Is it because I did not sufficiently squeeze my thighs? would you mean squeezing the knees do not steer the horse, instead this can tell the horse to slow down? thanks

This is exactly what my horse does! Great timing on this video popping up in my feed. I’ve been working on the halt/rein back randomly whilst hacking out because he’s usually quite relaxed on hack days.

Love that you do such great training the is thinking of the fair welfare of the horse

Love it so much!!!

Heals down. Let the horse's body move your hips. Relax.

Like this a lot.

I can't believe I didn't know about you until last night. I've ridden on and off for over sixty years and I cannot abide the shift in equestrian sports from intimate partnership to cheap entertainment. I can't even recognize "modern" competitive dressage as dressage of the classical school. I'm not at all surprised by the current scandal. Horses are being pushed too young. Riders have weird seats and hard hands, and the horses don't look like flexion and balance are centered. I've never had the financial capacity to own or share board, but I would give almost literally anything to be able to train with someone like you who understands equestrian sports are centered on the equine rather than the rider and audiences looking to be entertained. It's an uphill battle against current fashion, and I'm grateful you are standing for our beautiful sport and the brilliant creatures who make it possible.

Omg! Love this, thank you!

So cool! Thank you!

I love how practical you are!

Gorgeous horse! I learn so much from your videos! Thank you!

Maybe adding getting rid of the ELITE horse people who think they are better than the average trail rider. Its so sad seeing these young girls looking down on others. I know mommy and daddy are paying for EVERYTHING yet they feel the pedestal they're on is way above others! I am a farrier and see it constantly!!

Looks amazing! Very nice riding style

What a remarkable video. Thank you JJ for your courage and generosity in sharing your experience with us in this difficult time. Your positivity and compassion for horses is truly inspiring. Your advice is gold.

Good timing on this, as I’m just starting to work on canter pirouettes! Thank you for sharing these excellent tips!

Thank you. I am going to try this.

I love that. “Am I on the bit? Am I balanced? Am I supple?” Before we expect our horse to be those things. Thank you!

This is so much better than a lot of dressage riders! A more natural head set. Looks so pretty

Beautifully done!!

This sounds interesting but it's hard to follow

From what I recall, Bridging Reins was a standard and still is for riding racing Thoroughbreds. We used to set the bridge on the neck to avoid pulling(which means GO in that world) and to help balance if sky riding. I have never heard of Dressage using such a method and found this interesting because it does keep one centered and balanced, although utilized bit differently for Dressage riding.

It works GREAT!

Yes! Also, luv that I don't have polo wraps wound all the way up under their knees...what is with that !?

“Collect, collect, forward, ask” - I like that. And thinking about the changes as just another canter stride. Thanks.

I just came across this video in 2024, and I am extremely impressed. Your methods are wonderful! ❤

Awesome warm-up tips! ❤

Awesome! ❤

Great video! ❤

The words competitive and dressage should not appear together in the same sentence.

Let's discuss: Good vs. Great.

So encouraging to hear this point of view.

I really enjoyed hearing this, classical riders do need to compete to be ambassadors for the horse and other riders . When I watch your videos on RUclips it is so encouraging and they make me think alot about the horse and myself riding.

Ugh. I stopped watching after you can't even walk a stride without jabbing him with spurs.

I just love this! The actual exercise, and the encouragement to ride better rather than get after the horse for any imperfections in the execution.

I’m just starting to get that feeling of my horse really coming under the body and freeing up the front end. He’s a big warmblood/TBx and has lovely paces, but can get a bit like a freight train dragging you on the shoulder. My timing isn’t always the best with keeping the left hind coming. He is also extremely offended by too much rein contact. Do you have any tips on getting my timing better and what exactly the hands should be doing in that moment of half half? I tend to give a little squeeze with the inside rein and then soften as I put the leg on to ask the left hind for more. Thanks so much for your helpful videos!

Fascinating story. I've always wondered about the logistics of flying horses & I enjoyed hearing about some of the background detail. I loved to hear the vigilance you invest in caring for all the aspects of their health. And I loved that you finished up with a homage to the trust & generosity of our magnificent equine friends & acknowledged that you have worked thru some guilt over the travelling. Makes me think you must be, above all the knowledge & skill, a good woman at heart too!! And what a full exciting life you lead. Hello from down town here at The Mornington Peninsula, outside of Melbourne, Vic, Australia! Oh the beauty of sharing your story from far far away! Thankyou ❤

Love your videos!

Great exercise! I’ll give it a go. Thank you ❤

Nice exercise, thank you for sharing!
