I've only recently discovered freestyle dressage and it's quickly become my favorite thing. I've watched countless tests and this one is STILL my favorite. WHAT a pair!!!
Honestly? This is my favorite freestyle dressage ride--simply in beauty & joy. Yes, there are better technical rides but this one brings me the most joy.
@ginaria2530 That’s the point, the cues the horse gets are extremely subtle, almost undetectable. Dressage is a difficult sport that takes years of hard work, discipline, dedication and continuity. The use of minute movements from rider hands/reins, use of different points of pressure by riders legs , solid base of rider in saddle , upper body control all while maintaining balance throughout entire body! Such a beautiful and magical dance …with life long dedication, righteous trainers/ practices and enduring love of Dressage! (Just a basic, rudimentary explanation, lol) 😊
ALaurel Jordan thanks but is true I take clase for reining and my horse trainer say that and not only one trainer many of them and the horse also is sweating that is another signal of presión and not comfortable work
Whoever mixed the music ....bravo , it fits the horse perfectly. 💕. If this horse came fifth .... please can we see the other four. This was beautiful. X
Are there other great combinations of song and routine from Equestrian Dressage at the Olympics that you would like to see? Tell us and we'll bring them to Music Mondays!
Why couldn't a horse love to dance? Even plants have a favorite music genre. I once seen a horse named Baby dance in her stall to Ice Ice Baby while a bunch of kids clapped and cheered her on. Maybe your pal just loves the high frequency vibration YOU put off when you are happy. It is just like the vibrations felt when you are happy with your pal. I bet they perceive it the way we perceive a cats pur when we pet them. "Hey, they seem really happy. Let's keep petting them". My human seems super happy. Lets keep dancing. 😍
Me gustaría saber de que compositor son los trozos de música que se escuchan entre el tema de Santana y Bon Jovi, es espectacular para los oídos y súper emotiva, amo a ese caballo
So so very Beautiful ,Horse & Rider ♥️ Why do they have a very small fence , Worried that the horse might get hurt I don't know anything about competition I was just wondering ♥️
The problem is just like with Tennessee Walkers. They have heavy weights put around their hooves since they were young and that’s how they learn that type of gait. It’s not natural for any horse.
Horses also swish their tails when they are thinking. Doing these moves takes a lot of co-ordination and concentration. To make a real assessment of this horses feelings you have to take into account all the other parts of his body language. There are no other indicators that he is distressed, his ears are pointed up and to the side to listen. His back is not hollow or swayed. He's not even very sweaty or frothing compared to many horses at this level.
SpecialTeapot Yes, your absolutely right but you can see that his ears are sometime pointed to the rider and also maybe he is thinking like you said but it’s not normal that a horse is twirling it’s tail the hole time. And I don’t mean the swinging part I mean that the horse is Twirling it and also he looks really unhappy and that he doesn’t feels comfortable. I think our opinions are both in their own way right :)
EWN Dressage yes you are absolutely right. But if we really try do identify when he is twirling the tail then we can definitely see that he only does it when the rider performs specific movements. In the relaxed walk it does not show any movements in the tail.

How about blue horse matinea though
This pair is STUNNING, connection looks so soft and super willing
Tallulah Davis yeah they fit so well 🤩
No my dear, the connection is master over slave. Look up how this is trained. It is brutal. Ties, acid, vices, ropes.....
This amazes me. Love
Honestly? This is my favorite freestyle dressage ride--simply in beauty & joy. Yes, there are better technical rides but this one brings me the most joy.
Fabulous! Look at this horse's tail swish! What a natural performer! Love it. ❤❤
So beautiful🌷 Never behind the vertical, back always up and he is so fluid in his movements!!!🙌🙌✨🌷✨💞
The first 30 seconds before the routine has such incredible suspension. The mixing of the music in outstanding-as is horse & rider!
Love this connection and harmony..doesn't get much better than this ..superb ❤️
Wow what class the unity between horse and rider it’s clear to see this horse is super willing and will do anything for its rider
This is a excellant dressage test this rider clearly loves his horse and they are a great partnership
“STUNNING!” “OUTSTANDING”. Magnificent!!!
WOOWSER!!
This is one of the best dressage tests I have ever seen
What a ‘still’ rider. No over exaggerated aids, just a harmonious relationship with this lovely horse.

Wow....maybe not perfect...but still brilliant !!
What a beautiful, intelligent and powerful horse.
So beautiful and what a dancer, beautiful rhythm and reach, and dressage. Definitely a 🥇 winner.
This is so beautiful, look at his soft contact. the horse is so relaxed but enjoying it. it should have won
Oliver Banister the horse is not relaxed you need see the tail Thais mean the horse feel annoying with the spurs
@@anellizama8531 Excellent critique and knowledge.💐💐🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
ALaurel Jordan thanks but is true I take clase for reining and my horse trainer say that and not only one trainer many of them and the horse also is sweating that is another signal of presión and not comfortable work
@@anellizama8531 but this is not how horses really move naturally so i think its understandable 😅 aww i wish i could ride but i chose gymnastics
ΔŴРҽղһєımєя not is not natural that I’m saying the horse is not relaxing about the spurs and the presión on his mouth
OH YES!!!!!!! Showy and STRONG!!Words fail. This particular performance leaves me breathless
I love Santana!! This horse dancing is spectacular!!!!!
Whoever mixed the music ....bravo , it fits the horse perfectly. 💕. If this horse came fifth .... please can we see the other four. This was beautiful. X
Dressage and Bon Jovi, it’s a yes from me 🙌
brought me to tears.....so talented. Dream horse
Cuz you're soooo smooth! What a ride, what a horse, perfect musical score. Doesn't get much better than this!
I'm awe of their performance and the connection between horse and rider. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My heart melts every time I see this!
Never bored watching this💛
Love the power and excitement of the music. Not the usual boring elevator music. YAY!
Its like they get points against them for using actual music. My favorite ever is the "Rave horse" from Tokyo Olympic games
This is my 2nd favorite.
I don’t know the first thing about dressage, but I LOVE both the choice of music and the performance! Outstanding. ❤️
Beautiful to watch. Love the way he moves.
That horse has a beautiful passage
Wow! Always loved horses. This is so beautiful graceful and fun. Maybe becoming my favorite horse event!
Extraordinary performance, a fantastic pleasure to watch ♥️⭐️⭐️
Just beautiful, balanced, light on the front, amazing extension. Just wow
yes, this was outstanding amazing !....."Its my life ".......
Absolutely perfect. BEAUTIFUL
Omg!!! Severo Lopez! He was the one I wanted absolutely to see (with Dorothee Schneider and Showtime)!! Thanks so much!!
That certainly was Spectacular… beautiful spirited hHorse … truly enjoyed eyeing this clip ❤
Such smooth transitions and excellent reach! 😍😍 Absolutely beautiful!
this is the best performance after Totilos. I'm delighted, the horse is just a miracle.
Idk about that, think you’re overlooking Valegro. Better than Totilas tbh
@@emilywinfieldnovoa36 yeah, valegro is the legend of legends :)
@@emilywinfieldnovoa36 - And, from all indications, Valegro wasn’t abused with rollkur, unlike Totilas.
Look how soft his hands are!
look at the horse's mouth again sweetheart. because no they are NOT
@@faeryb0mb the horse is foaming? That’s all?
Just one word... WOW!👏🏻😍
So incredibly beautiful!!!❤❤❤❤
Those transitions are smoother than a fresh waxed floor
Perfection, graceful & magnificent to watch& enjoy
Beautiful horse 😍🐴
Are there other great combinations of song and routine from Equestrian Dressage at the Olympics that you would like to see?
Tell us and we'll bring them to Music Mondays!
Olympic Laura Bechtolsheimer's Lion King dressage in 2012!
Phil Collins fever from London 2012 (when both Victoria Max-Theurer and Anna Kasprzak performed to Collins medley!)
Olympic I'd love to see Dorothee Schneider with Showtime, her music was on point!
I really like to see Valentina truppa with eremo del castagno and dorothee Schneider with diva royal during 2012 olympic. Their music was amazing !
Can you please make videos of all the dressage freestyles? Would promote the sport more and get more dressage suscribers 💓
Que gran caballo y jinete. Gran arreglo musical.
New favorite Olympic sport
This is how you do a dressage test
Please tell me they won gold because a preformante like that deserves so much !!!!
I do showjumping but I'm thinking of doing dressage to enhance my seat. Seriously, this dressage performance was awesome though.
wow this pair is spectacular !! Well done
This horse looks soo hard to sit on 😂 must be like on a ship
This horse really looks like hes enjoying himself.
Why couldn't a horse love to dance? Even plants have a favorite music genre. I once seen a horse named Baby dance in her stall to Ice Ice Baby while a bunch of kids clapped and cheered her on.

Just amazing!!
Majestic!!!,. (While I bow)❤️
OMG they're so good. I love them😍😍😍

Con la app Shazam igual lo puedes saber
Hermoso
Imperial -Impecable
So so very Beautiful ,Horse & Rider ♥️
Why do they have a very small fence ,
Worried that the horse might get hurt
I don't know anything about competition
I was just wondering ♥️
He’s pretty soft with his hands for a dressage rider
Aaaamazinggggggg
Are the tail swishes part of it? I wasn’t sure if it was just coincidence 😂
He is wringing his tail. It is a sign of stress.
@@11buleria it can be a sign that they are listening horse dose not seem stressed at all
Wow ❤️
magnifique
So cute horse
Precioso
🤗💗🥳☺ WOW 💜
does anyone know who this rider is? Such a beautiful freestyle I am in awe!
Jurado Lopez
Click the word, more, under the title
Christ this horse has springs in her feet
The problem is just like with Tennessee Walkers. They have heavy weights put around their hooves since they were young and that’s how they learn that type of gait. It’s not natural for any horse.
No they don't 🤣 we don't add weighted shoes to Dressage horses it is against FEI/USEF rules. We would be banned from competition
Look at his tail how he is twirling it he doesn’t seems that he feels really well

The horse is really enjoying can't you see !!!
This was also the middle of summer in a hot country, doesn’t matter how my fly spray you use they’ll still land on your horse
