There is a massive difference between collected canter in preparation for the pirouette and the collected canter at 4th and above in general and into things like the tempis. No way is the latter walk speed. In general the collected canter is lot more forward, gaining ground than it used to be few d...

well a collected canter is walk speed I tell my riders they need to walk at canter speed and canter at walk speed. that information us based in Spanish Riding School, so I guess it's training based not competition based, although the current top dressage rider( Jessica and Daleera) in the world has...

Ryeissa

Isn't that what you want? Yes! It's a good quality stride. The problem is that I don't have the control in it of the shoulder. So, to anyone watching it looks like a lovely collected canter. But I do not have the ability to make the adjustments I need for the more advanced work. As the trainer said...

Ryeissa

try setting the poles at different spacings- if the average canter is 4 strides between then collect to 5 strides then next time extend so you get 3 strides. What exactly is she doing with the shoulder? Is it going up/down or is it falling either L/R or both? IT sounds like its really up/down? Isn't...

Ryeissa

I have more issues with her getting too deep (not curled behind contact, but low in the poll) here than the other way around. Changing her flexion/softening the jaw are usually pretty easy. It's other parts of her body that feel stuck--shoulder/loin yes, I think we have the same horse- many things ...

where is she, anyways? total lack of leadership on every level....Completely disappointed in both Biden and Harris. The US is imploding into chaos, strife, COVID, economic issues, and fear. "As of Aug. 31, 43% of registered voters had a favorable opinion of Harris and 50% had an unfavorable opi...

Ryeissa

Again what is "reputable"? A video is a video.....Biden just isn't listening. After what we are seeing now with COVID and Texas abortion ban this is deeply troubling.

Ryeissa

AK, you're reading from a pretty old playbook. Disagreement = hysteria ("PMSNBC", "the Ho") and all of the negative feminine characteristics that go with it. That's so 1890s. Let's elevate the discussion a bit, huh? I'm seeing a lot of "dismissal and insults", alright,...

Ryeissa

Just because someone dislikes trump, doesn't mean they agree with everything Biden does. The two aren't connected. Am I glad Biden won? YES, but he wasn't my choice coming out of primaries. do I think he's done everything right? No, no president I can think of has. Citizen free press is not at all ...

no, never seen one in person or for sale. Keep us posted if you find something

Lets see how he speaks out on the texas abortion ban. He seems to be getting on that at least to start with..... We will be watching. Closely.

Ryeissa

He sure is a pretty boy! He looks stronger already! nice work

Ryeissa

Im old enough to remember Biden shamed out of the 1984 primary for lying and plaigerising (sp) his career is one ling farce of mistakes and corruption. But… he wasnt Trump! And he had a dog! And just saying… anyone who writes tRump and thinks its clever is an automatic no cred poster. Here, on fb, ...

"Today, President Biden's overall approval has taken a turn for the worse due to his awful job performance rating on Afghanistan," said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk Political Research Center. "His approval on immigration and the economy are also upside down. The only issu...

Ryeissa

For President Joe Biden, the cost of the war's chaotic end has been steep. His overall job approval rating now stands at 41% who approve versus 55% who disapprove – a big drop in the closely watched barometer of political health. Until last week, national polls generally showed his approval rating a...

Biden's job ratings decline amid Covid surge, Afghanistan withdrawal in NBC News poll
"Summer of discontent": Biden’s overall job approval falls below 50 percent for the first time in the NBC News poll, while just 25 percent approve of his handling of Afghanistan.

It's horrible. HOW do you suggest he do better? I don't know what kind of news you are watching, but I see 100% leadership, accountability, and plan, even if the plan doesn't work well! (Because NONE will, which is why none has been do in 20 years.) HOW can you do this any better???? There is NO si...

Ryeissa

Baloney. Not ugly. Real. Biden is doing the best he can, and he had balls to finally DO something where everyone else has refused AND he takes all of the criticism like a noble person. It is a mess and everyone is criticizing, and no one could have done it better. One way or another it would have b...

Thanks everyone. I think its getting better. I rode yesterday and it was good. I think my riding is just being affected by general stress. A lot of us are really feeling the effects of two years of crisis, aren't we? The natural disasters are also really scary/stressful.

Thought I saw a post from someone about dressage malaise/taking a break but either I misread or it's been deleted.

Yeah, I'm so safety minded, I would never have any straps or things on a riding horse like that. I have visions of disaster if the horse trips, gets a leg over, etc. Also that's a hell of a lot of poll pressure. Every massage client I work on has some poll tension "just because" so I would...

I think this is awesome! I never liked white on my pinto since he always looks "cream" and its really hard to match ivory breeches (plus its so unflattering). I hope there is more clarification about the colors involved. Ie- chocolate brown? I usually school in brown breeches. Examples of ...

Rye, the riders are all riding the same diagonal, but some horses have their body more parallel to the long side and others are more at an angle with the shoulders leading. yeah, that sounds like a bend issue. thanks for the clarifying. The shoulder needs to lead in HP. I was really shocked how muc...

Ryeissa

I've done it from many starting points as my horse needed different things at different times: shoulder in has been my "go to" because my horse likes to already be leading with the haunches HP to LY to HP to prevent falling of the shoulder 1/2 circle circle to HP like in third level test I...

Ryeissa

First, is there a reason why? Is it correcting something you or the horse are doing? I can't say if its the same exactly, but this year I have been specifically told to OPEN the outside rein away from the neck to have proper alignment and collection. I was crossing it over too much. This goes back t...
