Hey Everyone,
I have to say i was a big fan of showjumping and still am but since i have had a three year break from training i have found a new love inmy life- Dressage. It all happened when i was looking at horse clips on youtube late one night and i stumbled across this clip of WEG Andreas Helgstrand and Blue Horse Matine. I am in love.
 That horse and rider combo is so amazing and the horse actualy recognises the beat and steps in time.

I know, I heard on one of these clips-not sure if it was this exact one but the commentator was discussing how the rider actually paid to get the music made professionally. Someone made her song that she rode to match the horses foot steps to the beat. I guess that makes sense but at first thought it came as a shock...

I think its really smart now i am used to the idea of paying for special composing of the music especially if it may mean the difference of a place or not. At first i thought it was a bit dramatic |

One thing is sure, the rider has to work very hard to train the horse and synchroize it with the beat of music. Nice Video |
