Dressage Show Voiceover: What was I thinking...

- I wanted to share with you my Prix St. George test from last weekend on Kensington. I love competing - mostly because I love spending tons of time with my horses - but also because it is a measure of the progress in the training. I got Kensington as a green broke 5 year old and he has come a long, long way. He has not been the easiest horse to train as he is is very sensitive but internalizes and hides his emotions.
Anyway, I am so proud of how far he has come and in this video I talk through my Prix St. George test. Please remember that competing is all about having fun and enjoying your horse. It's all about the journey and remember to be proud of how far you've come and what you're accomplished.

Absolutely do more like this please! Would also be interesting if you included the judge's scores and comments for each movement too.
I personally find these the most useful videos . Hearing from you what you were thinking and feeling and trying to do it correct is super useful and much better than videos where people just tell you what to do , but not how . I rewind and know what to look for etc. Thank you for your openness and sharing, as authentic performances with errors and room for improvements are the best learning tool and I appreciate you putting this out there. Great performance though , congratulations !
Bravo to both of you! I was crying watching and hearing your critique. You should be proud. I would love more of these. Yes, please!
Congratulations!! I have same extended walk issues for same reasons! Yes do more videos like this. I did 2 classes-first time at third 2 last week. We had our imperfections but my mare got through separation anxiety, survived 3 major wind dust storms and about 30 feet of pvc fencing blowing over behind her and still went in and listened to me in the tests! Listening had been another issue We got our flying changes in one test (although a bit exuberant!)...I was so surprised that I forgot my 20 m. Canter circle! Got 63.5. I wanted better but all in all the weekend was a success.
Wonderful! Good for you!
Yes! Great video and voice over, these need to continue. Very educational for your audience please keep then coming, maybe even one with your husband ride so we can hear his perspective. Kensington looked wonderful, do glad you both got 1st place. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yay!!
Ace video, voice over so informative, yes please to more of them…….and ace result, huge congratulations
He was super and you were superlative!
Thanks Barb!
Congratulations on your win! And thank you for sharing your thoughts, and helping us feel the challenges of competing at that level 😊
Beautiful team! Wonderful job you two and thank you so much for sharing and explaining. All that helps us understand so much better! 😊
Thank you!!
This video was very helpful with your play by play comments. I have ridden on and off for years, and finally found a great small barn in Sebastopol, CA (Apple Creek!) where I try to spend as much time as possible. I decided to re-learn riding, this time bareback, after years of being too reliant on my reins, stirrups, crop, etc. I have to say that I love having better balance and more "feel" for my horse. I use a bareback pad, more for his comfort than mine, and we ride with bitless bridles as well. Anyway, learning dressage bareback is a kick, and great exercise. My lesson horse is a well-schooled Arabian who's also a little sensitive. He knows lateral movements and I'm learning how to ask him for them, which is surprisingly hard. Watching you and Kensington rock it gives me hope! I spend a lot of work time peering into a microscope, so watching your videos is also great for relaxing. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing your test and thoughts on it. I recently just did my first PSG test on my 15 yo mostly-trained-by-me mustang. We didn't have a perfect test but I was super proud of him, well, both of us, for getting in the ring and giving it a good shot. So, I very much appreciate seeing others' tests, especially the first attempts. TY
Beautiful, the voiceover was really helpful. Thank you😀
Congratulations to you both! Please do more like this!
Thank you!
This video shows Kensington's try most particularly. I love your partnership.
Awesome ride and yes do more of these videos please. I like up close videos, good for me to watch a good canter ride,it will help me to be a better at it. Thanks 🎉😊
Yes, do more. Loved it. He’s beautiful and you ride him beautifully.
SOOOO cool. It's so nice to see the wins AND the areas that were challenging....helps me keep in mind that there is always work to do no matter what level you're at!
Yes please! More voiceovers! This was so helpful. Just finished lessons on my two green 5 year-olds, and there was your video to give me hope and inspiration. Congrats to you and Kensington on a beautiful test.
Amelia, Kensington and you did a phenomenal job. Thank you for sharing so, I and others can learn.
Please, I’d love to see more of your work. ❤️🌻
Thank you!!! I am a beginner, just starting to learn at 60 yo. I’ve ridden since I was 3 but always western and rarely with any discipline. Your explanation was so very helpful. Sincerely appreciated!
Very nice riding. Your leg aids were nice and discreet! Lovely horse.
Beautiful just beautiful
Thanks for sharing! Yes. Love the talk overs!
Congratulations! Yes, please, more videos where you talk through your ride. Loved your wrap-up, "It's not about the outcome, but the journey, so do your best and be happy with the results." Yes, yes yes. Also, as I recently heard from a judge and clinician, "Low scores are a wake-up call." We can use those disappointing scores as a baseline to help us improve, but clearly, you and Kensington did not have that problem.
haha we all have bad rides at times, even Kensington and I! I do more voiceovers on my patreon.
Hello and thank you Amelia ! I learn and feel encouraged so much watching you. You're thoughtful comments are very real. Presentation excellent. Really enjoyable - I Love "thank you" to your horse.
I love watching these video, and all of your other training ones as well, please put more up, thankyou 😊
Super video! Thank you! Yes more please! So helpful.
Thanks! I do them for my patreon from time to time too :)

Thank you! Will do!
I love these videos. Please continue with them.
Thanks!! I will!
Congrats and looking forward to seeing more. ❤
Thank you for this! That's really great!
Always inspiring.
This was so useful thank you for posting this! And congrats on the win 🥰
I like to watch your videos, they are the best education!! You both were great and you should be so proud! It would be great thing and lot of fun to listen your voiceover during some Olympic games videos. Or you and Nicole can do some voiceover of yours videos, you are such amazing team!!
Great suggestion!
Amazing commentary! As a beginner, I tihnk these would help me - especialy combined with the use of slow-motion and zooming into the movement when pointing mistakes! (or correct vs incorrect side-by-side explanations! :)
Thanks for the feedback, I have lots of videos on my channel that dive into specific problems, have you checked those out?
Great ride! Interesting to listen to your/rider's thoughts with each moment. I scribe a lot and I'm curious of the rider's perspective. Thanks! Please do more of these kinds of videos 💐
It’s on my list! Glad you enjoyed it
This was fun
I am just starting to learn dressage. I found your video to be very informative.
thank you!
I wish I could train with you, Your so good with your horses and in training.
You can through our courses and programs. Many of which offer online video review and opportunities to ask Amelia and her team questions. Check out our Rider Position Transformation course amelianewcombdressage.com/rider-position-transformation/?RUclips&FLASHRPT
Yes, chestnuts ARE sensitive horses... But they are so much fun!
Yes, I love you talking thru your ride. It helps me know how a move should look and how to correct mistakes. Thank you.
How should you ride to beat get your horse to use the corners?
I get marked down constantly for not riding my corners, ugh 😣
You need to have your horse bending in their ribcage to be able to ride your corners, how deep you go into them depends on the level that you are riding at.

Hi Amelia, I love your videos as you keep things simple. With this video, think it would be useful if you could ride the test again (sorry) and record what you are thinking at the time. So if the move is C trot then half pass to X, what are you thinking as you ride it? When are you half halting, or moving shoulder. What do you do with your seat etc. I know it's a big ask but it would be really helpful. Xxxxxxx (lots of kisses to butter you up!!)
haha I do that with my test videos; but I haven't done it for this level yet.
Was the shoulderin a four track or three track? It looked like it had a lot of slant. Just wondering if PSG requires that much slant.
Shoulder in is a 3 track movement, sometimes the angle of the camera makes it look more or less. And remember, it's not the slant that defines a shoulder in, it's the bend in the body :)
I notice your right ankle/foot is always very active compared to the left - is that for this horse specifically?
It is helping him to activate the weaker side and encouraging to bend.
Do you ever get stepped on? I did today. I feel better when really good horse people sometimes get the foot stomped on too.
Not typically, I tend to teach my horses to stay out of my space. But it can happen to even the best riders/horse people.
