Equestrian Dressage: I Got A Feeling/Love Is Gone | Music Monday 

@@marinbernotas4734 let's just say a LOT of ground work.

Its so hard to do that what they do

Agreed

What do you think ketamine is for?

Its sad this horse has better moves then I do on the dance floor

So if nobody wasn't saying anything, everybody must have screamed

I smell two bits on my property

well this horses favourite type of music is clip clop.

It's not hopping. Its trotting and dressage.

@@ladyren1575 It's a joke...

We Got a Feeling... that you're pretty good! 🕺😄

Well, he does have 4 feet, which makes for better balance.... XD

@@warriormaiden9829 maybe I should start dancing on my hands and knees more often then...xD

@@kierasilvershield4140 Lol... XD

Robin v. C. Its banned in the FEI level I believe. If they saw it they wouldn’t put this video up and they would probably disqualify the rider. Next time, think a little more.

I wish it would be this easy 😂

XD

If I don’t, I’ll get whipped to death?? Can’t wait!!!

shut up

But a little bit painful for that poor horse

@@emmagratzl8882 it's not painful for the horse at all.

@@elinas5316 Well, ok

@@natashalamonda2174 Kiwii telled me that isn't painful for the horse at all. I understanded 😉

@@emmagratzl8882 lol calm down

almost everything you said is correct i hope this gets more likes so people stop using this as a reason for it being 'abused.' the only thing i have to say is the horse salivating is absolutely fine, it means it's content, relaxed, and working hard, the more the better really.

The horse has a double bridle, which is a requirement for FEI grand prix, and doesnt seem to have any problem in it, you can also see the minimal effort the rider is making with his hands through the bit of slack in his lower rein. we are taught from pretty much lesson 1 that it should be 80:20 seat and leg: hand, so when you have to use the upper level equiptment, you arent harming the horses mouth. Nobody can make it to this level without such discipline because it also affects ballance. Also, in dressage we like to see the mouth foaming because it looks like the horse is thinking and focused, so sometimes we put a bit of sugar on the bit. Anything happening in this video is FAR from abuse as the replying comment seems to think.

Natural Riding yeah I kinda agree there

The horse drools because it cannot swallow, either because the nose band is too tight or pulling on the tongue too much. What about his tail? Lashing around most of the ride? The piaffe is not correct,, as his front feet come under, instead of his hind end dropping more. Hes more correct than most of the riders out there but not great

Natural Riding lusitani x

Finally, someone who understands this. I am a great animal lover, esp. of horses. I have six rescue horses plus a trotter. But this extreme animal defense is really irritating. Do you think we can just stop using horses and other animals in racing, jumping, dressage, hobbies. They would just stop breeding them. So please think!

I was on the fence, until I started reading the comments and taking at face value what the experts here have said that this isn’t animal abuse. I kind of compare it to training a dog. I am however unsure about the neck position, that really does look painful.

Animal abuse trains the horse

@@kymprice01 the horse is a lusitano and that breed has thicker necks. i know because im from portugal and have lusitanos and my mare has that neck posture even if im not holding the reins

@@niteblaster1 no. Look it up. I NEVER abused any of the horses I rode in my life.

Yes! This was an amazing routine, dressage is very hard to learn as for training your horse, it is also VERY bouncy much more than sitting any trot. So sitting any dressage move is a challenge

Sylla Atlas I agree. The horse has beautiful conformation for the sport!

Many thanks from Spain. I adore them too

I think technically they are the best. While the warmblood is bred for impulsion and big gaits, Andalusians are bred for collection. Their confirmation is also much more suited. Do you see how far that hind leg went under the horse? Far surpasses valegro any day

@@coollikegrass2489 But their canter lacks quality, and so does the walk. Plus, they struggle to make the big sport dressage extensions.

@@dominicweber I would definitely say no their Canter's and walks do not lack quality. This horses canter was a dressage canter just like any warmblood As for extension, yes it is harder. You are going against something that was bred to extend with something that was bred to collect. But as collection is the main goal of dressage we should support something that can truly collect but not extend so well over something that can truly extend and not collect so well

You might not be able to walk and chew gum... but you are modest and funny 😄

@@Olympics en olimpycs me gusta la ceremonia inaugural de lausane sin comentarios

You made my day with your comment. Hilarious...

I was just coming on to comment on the piaffe @1:30.....stunning. That's where you can always tell the caliber!

Nope. The rider uses something called "Rollkur". And thats animal cruelty.

Robin v. C. this is not röllkur. the horse has a thick neck (also a crest), and this horse is in proper collection. i know röllkur very well when i see it, and this is simply not the case. but nice attempt.

Robin v. C. The horse is above the bit

@@whynotbeanequestrian8181 it doesn't look like the horse lost contact with the rider's hands, so I don't think it's above the bit.

EllieTheHorse that’s a mood XD

That is common

Ellite Equine i think that is a little mean cause you haven’t made it into the Olympics

So true lol

They didn't give him a good score. The judges don't like classical dressage anymore, it seems 🙄

It makes me sad that they don’t score as high as the warmbloods do, because I honestly prefer them. They have such talent for piaffe/passage and always look so willing and elegant.

@@novksavg What? Its excellent. That piaffe.

@@mynamename5172 It was the best Piaffe at the Olympics that year But the judges didn't give him a high score

But the crowd gave them a standing ovation in acknowledgement of Rubi horse about to retire and his great Spanish piaffe.

Naybella B I thought the same!

no bcs i thought she did backflips on top of a horse😭

nope!! same here lmao

That's because the horse is tamed, and the rider has a good bond with him.

sorry? have you ever seen a horse in pain. They dont buck, kick or throw their riders. Horses in pain are SILENT AND QUIET. That is how they have evolved over millions of years, if they show pain in the wild, a predator can easily come and nab them, therefore they are masters at pain concealment. The few times horses buck at jumping shows and on cross country courses is beacuse the pain has become unbearable and they try to show people. PLEASE dont say that if the horse was hurting it it would protest. It wont. It never will.

I've seen horses protest their pain? So am I blind or what?

@@rengab137 Horses will show their pain if they feel like they can WITHOUT punishment or consequence. For example if a little kid is on the back of a pony and they jab it in the mouth, the pony might do a small buck or pigroot. In a dressage competition they have been TRAINED to accept spurs, pelhams and other forms of pain. If they don't, they know that it is going to be MORE painful so they must.

Eliya Adler you make me laugh, you can ride almost every horse with spurs when you’re an experienced rider and use them correctly. Horses show their pain trough their eyes and body posture.

Lusitano

They look similar but this is a Lusitano (Portuguese horse)

Horse really ejoys having a piece of metal in his mouth and rubing it on his lip Its just dusgusting! I think it will bleed🛑

@@akkistic you clearly know nothing about horses - the bit doesn't "rub" on their lip or make it bleed, and is in a specific spot in their mouth so that it doesn't move around as much.

@@moon-ig8tq just look at how short the reind are and if ya font know ive been riding noe for 5 years

@@akkistic didn't understand a single thing you said right there, sorry. Try fixing your spelling

They do! I can send you a link to the most recent Olympic freestyles here on RU-vid

What a perfect animal cruelty.

@@robinv.c.898 there's literally no animal cruelty here at all. I've seen you comment a few times about how this is "rollkur" and how it's "abusive". this rider is *not* riding in rollkur. rollkur is highly illegal and the rider would have been disqualified - plus, this video would not still be here. the horse is a lusitano stallion, which is why he has a huge arched neck.

omggg that would be perfect for dressage You are giving me ideas...

close! Rubi is a lusitano

@@emmaaspinall2655 out of all the horses his was the most stunning!!!

There’s a ton of movement, which makes it look like they’re not moving. It’s an awesome illusion 💛

Avery Madison doesn’t look like constant drills with music 😂

XVicky Play's tr

tr?

You mean Show?

good luck but don't be like him he is being so cruel see its mouth FOAMING WTH it's like me outing that bit in your mouth and yanking on it so you had to bend your neck not willingly if you actually like horses you would NOT HURT THEM........ sorry but its THE TRUTH

melody x Emma Hey, I just saw your comment and I thought I would correct you. So the horse is actually foaming because it’s relaxed. You actually want the horse to foam. It could also be the bit material causing it. If it’s a copper or sweet mouth bit they foam a lot. It means the horse is comfortable. Just thought I would tell you!😊

Naomi Duskbrooke also probably a stallion but he is beautiful

They have to use double bits at this level

Saara Makris I know however I don’t think it’s necessary, I believe a horse at that level can do just as well in a snaffel bit than a double bit.

Tea Bag or no bit at all! I’m not anti but but just saying- although I agree with you.

Shayla Brynn completely agree!

Tea Bag thank god you have some sense!

Because it's a very strong bond between you and the amazing creature that can kill you easily And you do it cause it's a passion

I’m setting my sights on jumping too

Wow have t gotten this many likes in anything before lol

I theres Mule dressage, really impressive

When foot-dressage was invented:

Dog dressage is a thing

Dog dressage, dressage pretty much just means obedience.

Nah
