Absolutely Beth! Alicia is so passionate that everyone can do this! She really believes in the systems! Did you have any suggestions of topics or more questions? We really want to tailor this to YOU!
@@YourRidingSuccess Would love an episode where the leg yield is really broken down into exactly what you are doing with your hands, seat, legs etc, something so basic but tricky to master which really complements building towards higher dressage movements. Would love to learn more movement to really get the horse to sit on its hind to build up that strength and power!
Beth super!!! You are not the first person to ask for this!!! We have a leg yield lesson all sorted for Tuesday... and Alicia is changing it up a bit to answer some of these questions! It will probably roll out over more then one video TBF!! lol Can you please help us a bit? Can you email me at socials.yourridingsuccess@gmail.com with an explanation of the questions you would really like to be answered.... go crazy with it!!! Alicia will go through it all and get it out to you on some epic videos!!xx

Thank you for supporting Natasha. I miss her but your energy and passion is palpable and contagious in a different way and it's awesome. Could you make a video of how you handle being unsure/or scared in the saddle?
You are so welcome! Sureya can you send us am email, explaining a little more about how we can help you regarding being unsure et c in the saddle. Ill pass it onto Alicia and she will do a video about it! socials.yourridingsuccess@gmail.com
You should feel like you're sitting on a Harley motorcycle in a vertical position with your weight in your heels... & maybe standing in the stirrups in a 2 point will help wake those lower body muscles up and help with comfortability & balance on top any walking or standing horse...a walking horse will give your feet some relief and you can simply sway your hips with the horses mini bounce.....if I'm wrong or missing something critical Please respond or ask a professional! I'm still a relatively new intermediate level rider!
Woah I never thought about using leg yield as a way to increase impulsion and that natural lift in the back that creates a moment of suspension and then holding that there with a half halt for a few seconds before letting them back into a regular trot. AWESOME tip!
Thanks Kimberly! Alicia is so passionate that everyone can do this! She really believes in the systems! Did you have any suggestions of topics or more questions? We really want to tailor this to YOU!
@@YourRidingSuccess I would love to see something on how to transition from lower to higher level dressage and what the differences may look like in terms of tests, say from intro/training level to first and second level. Thank you guys!!
No one had ever explained this to me so clearly before. THANK YOU! As a showjumper who always slacked in her dressage, I feel enlightened!! (I wish the cameraman could have been moving along with you during a few of the steps, especially when you started adding the half halts just to be able to see better what you were doing. but those are minor details. the video was truly amazing!!! )

I love this! It's a real pet peeve of mine when people try to teach a flashy trot, or amazing jump, on their expensive naturally talented and experienced horses. It was so encouraging to see a horse that has a completely normal gait :)
Holly! thank you so much for the support! Yes, Alicia is so passionate that its all actually not that hard. And most horses can do it, and well!!! Did you have any suggestions for topics or questions you would like answered? Alicia is very dedicated to making this channel all about you guys!
I just found you while looking for how to have a long leg, something I struggle with, and I have to say that I LOVE your energy and passion! You’re so inspiring with the way you teach and the words you use. Thanks for sharing your gifts!
«You don’t know what you have within your horse until you try and find it!» What an amazing video which almost brings me tears! I’m a trainer and still struggled a bit to trust the process with my own horse! This video is so educating (even for me as a trainer) and on the other hand so logically explained that you just understand it! I will be watching it again with students and friends! Thank you❤️
This is a great video x I’d love to see a video on doing dressage on a not so perfect horse sort of encourage people with not so perfect horses or ideal breeds to keep going. And also I’d love to see how the help a horse that always pokes their nose out and rides with their nose in front of them 😊
Great suggestion Emily! We are actually already on this!!! Check out every Wednesday and we will be bring on an OTT straight off the track! We will also have a 4yo making regular appearances in August onwards. ANNNND, as part of our giving back to YRS, we are training one of our DMA members horses, whom she has been having problems with! Stoping, going up and bucking! Let us know if that is the sort of content you were talking about! xx
Thank you so much for actually breaking it down and giving us the steps to success! Thank you for supporting Natasha and doing a fabulous job that she knew you would! Would you be able to do something along the lines of getting your horse more forward and supple.. we do lots of transitions but we aren’t really getting anywhere! Keep up the great work! xx
Hi Leia! Yes! We have had loads of requests for a similar topic! So it is now in the video schedule, watch on Tuesdays and Thursdays and you'll see the video prob in about 5-6 weeks! Keep the ideas coming! we really want this to be very tailored to you!
Thank you So Much. I've Got A Lesson On Wednesday Ill Be Trying This. 30 Years Of Riding Should Be Okay. Love To Have A Go Myself. Getting My Own Horse Next Year Cant Wait. Thank You xx
I'll never get to this level, but on the other hand I'm having so much fun "not skipping training scale"! Thanks for breaking it apart like this, love your energy!
Thank you sooo much Now I understand after almost 5 month's my riding lessons why what for and more it need to be a Basic .Straightness. connecting. Motions I Rhythmic. Impulsion...And Cpllecttion..... Ofcourse half halt and Rise...Now I really Understand. Thank you. Just wanted to tell you it takes me a little bit longer also because I'm Polish and it's wee bit harder for me coz I need to listen and ofcourse Understand what my trainer is telling to me and ofcourse its little bit for me harder to try to have a Good attention for learning and understanding... Thanks Again for your very helpful and understanding lessons....Your the Best 👌 👍 😉😉👌👏
I love how you always pat your horses while they're just standing there as you're talking, it really shows how much you care about them!!! Also love the level of energy and effort you put into these videos!!!
I sooo LOVE THIS.. never dreamed we could make a fancy trot by compiling a few of the techniques together, what a great piece of information to implement in my training success. THANKYOU!! Following!! ❤
I'm glad to hear that the video was helpful to you! Dressage can indeed be a challenging discipline but with dedication and perseverance, you can make progress and achieve your dressage goals.
Pat on the back for an amazing first video,I like the fact you break everything down to build it back up again and we can see every detail and aids to achieve an overall picture,well done team.
Thanks so much Michelle! Alicia was nervous, so these comments will help so much! Did you have any questions or suggestion for more content.. we would love to tailor it to you ask much as we can!
Wow, that's brilliant video, helped me so much with understanding process of how to do better trot, cuz I'm struggling with this right now. Thank you for this video!
@@YourRidingSuccess I have a problem with relaxation while riding, I'm so focus to do something right that I got tens (and especially in shoulders and neck), maybe you could do an episode what's helping to relax? I would appiciate that
This is such an excellent video. Getting to see how to progress from a non developed horse and gradually develop greater hind end action has been a large mystery. This helps understand that process. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much Alicia! I have been wondering for sooooo long, how to create an attractive/fancy trot. I could never find something that really gave me thorough instructions but now I have! Thank you soooooo much!
YAYYYYYYY!!!!! So pleased you liked it!!! Bethany, let us now ANYTHING you can think of that you would like to know more about.... Alicia is very keen to break anything down you are wanting to hear!
This is the greatest video Alicia!! Viewing no. 33!!! Greatest recipe, greatest Wessel!!! ❤❤❤ Love it! Inspirational! That video changed my riding life, changed my belief system!! Thankyou a million, sending big flashy trot feelings to Wess & Alicia during his recovery!! 🥰🥰🥰🐴🐎🐎🐎🙏🙏🙏💖
I am a little confused. Same show but different woman doing videos? Both are enjoyable, and more importantly not only informational, but also oddly assuring. These videos always build my confidence and are inspirational in addition to the highly useful educacional component. I watch them before and after my lessons and find them really useful. Huge fan!
Thank you for your lovely comments and glad you love the videos. You are right that now Alicia is the one featured in the recent videos and Natasha was in the previous videos. Tash is still very much involved but in a slightly different capacity, if you watch this video Tash explains it more th-cam.com/video/knoEf_zA0ns/w-d-xo.html ✨
Thank you so much Jessica! So glad you enjoyed it!! Did you have any more questions? We can feed them back to Alicia! She is super keen to make these videos as much about you as possible!
Thank you for another amazingly helpful video Alicia. I tried this guidance today in my lesson and although it was hard, I managed to get some great moments where my horse was (whose 20+ years old!) engaging her rear and lifting her pole so was in an outline. I have never experienced this before with her. My coach was wonderful and helped guide me like you on how to do this and what to look out for, what to feel more importantly! Amazing I can't wait to ride again. Xxx
Glad it was helpful Lara! Alicia is so passionate that everyone can do this! She really believes in the systems! Did you have any suggestions of topics or more questions? We really want to tailor this to YOU!
@@YourRidingSuccess My horse often falls out on the circle, some advice on how to stop this would help … and I’m always trying to improve my position and my knowledge on how to influence my horse more with my seat, so anything with regards to this would be helpful !
Thanks so much Lara! Keep commenting and asking for more! We have been inundated today with comments!! Lucky enough.... this whole month is about how your seat influences the horse! So stay tuned!!
Miss you Tash but Alicia is great too. Glad she is doing a vid on leg yield soon. I would like a video on riding a 20m circle particularly in canter as I’m struggling with this at the moment. Thanks both xx
Great idea!! We actually have a 20m circle video planned and ready to go! So that will air this quarter... BUT we hadn't thought to add when cantering... So it is officially on the list! THANK YOU!!!xx
I just wanted to say that I found the info on how to bring the horse into a higher frame SO HELPFUL!! (This is definitely something I struggle with on horses who haven't been taught a higher carriage by someone else!) It was really cool to see Wessel naturally rebalance himself for a few strides after the leg yield. Great video!
This video is just what i've been looking for, thank you so much for explaining this in detail. dressage instructors generally never give you this kind of information. I'm going to practice this tomorrow.
Thank you for this video. Seeing you ride while you break things down makes learning from you so much easier and having you break down each element to explain how they all come together helps it make more sense. More videos like this kind please 💕🐴🙏
@@YourRidingSuccess Honestly guys, I’ve been devouring the Your Riding Success Pilates coursework and riding videos. For the past 2 weeks my instructors and riding pals have been marveling at my consistent progression. I feel like I’m on a sugar high. Lolz. 🐎🍭 I only started riding in January and I’m 67. 👍🏼 Heartfelt thank you.
I am loving these basic videos! I pick one to watch before my ride, then work on incorporating what I learned from the video in my ride! Thank you for your excellent instruction, I love how you keep it simple, so motivating!
Спасибо!!! 2 года назад у меня получилось добиться каденции на рыси с лошадью. Потом произошла травма и после этого у меня не получалось. Я долго искала информацию о том, как мне прийти к этому обратно. И ваше видео мне оказалось безумно полезным в этой теме на фоне 100 других
This is SO helpful! Thanks for breaking this down all the way back from the start like this. My coach has me do similar exercises but this was helpful because now I have a better idea of why we're doing the exercises, what to look for, and where it's all heading. Keep up the great content!! 💙
OH that is so great! Sometimes it is so much easier to learn, when you know where you are heading!!!! Alicia and Tash will love this!! Thanks for sharing! Is there any topics or questions you would like us to give more insight too? We are trying to Taylor our content as much as we can toward you! x
I've tried this a few times now with my not so flashy jumping horse. She's very floor bound (not sure you say it that way un english), but she's a very economical mover 😅 finally getting some results from this and she's moving a bit bouncier and gets a bit of a nice frame 😃 love your videos! Very educational and motivational even for a showjumper 😁
Your Riding Success of course you are a great person for inviting others into the mysterious world of dressage young and old. I couldn't help thinking of all the beginners and young riders that you inspire!! What a beautiful thing you are doing. Sometimes it can be very confusing and overwhelming..but with your gregarious heart ,enthusiasm,commitment to other riders and helping them "Get it" ..not to mention very professional approach ,I think you have no idea how many lives you touch! You touched mine and if I had the golden buzzer you'd be getting the golden buzzer right now(A.g.t.) lol. Thank you keep that good stuff up and thank you again see you again in a future video lesson. Have a good day
Awesome! Thankyou! Fantastic video - I love the emphasis on the training scale and the ability to develop the pace (trot) with quality and correct basics! So awesome to see it broken down in this way visually. Wow! Very much looking forward to future videos!
Mille, thank you so so much! Alicia loves to keep the education very correct, but still not confusing. Did you have any more questions? We can feed them back to Alicia! She is super keen to make these videos as much about you as possible!
Great demo! Great explanation! Great steps. What is the wait 2 steps please? Love your method. Tips to use your thinking!!! Fabulous encouragement! OK have to go out & ride now!! ❤❤❤🐴
Hi Benita! The first step is getting Wessel to be moving in a normal trot where he is taking the contact down and forward. The second step is to get him to start picking up the frame- Alicia does this in the video by using a leg yield x
Oh trust me I’d be happy with the first trot 😂 it was difficult enough to get mine to stop pacing and actually trot so please can you send me that trot in the post of something I want it 😂😂
Lol!!!! If only!!! So glad you are enjoying the videos!! Did you have any more questions? We can feed them back to Alicia! She is super keen to make these videos as much about you as possible!
@@YourRidingSuccess anything about top line and building that up, as well as slowing the trot because my goodness she is fast. I do have videos of her on my TH-cam I think that’s easier than explaining her weird ways but she’s literally like a 4 year old in a 10 year olds body with the add on of being a racer 😂 so fun 😌👌🏻
Eder, Thank you very much1 One question has been focused around what to do when you loose your balance... So we might add a video in between this and step 2, showing what to do when you loose your balance! Thinking Alicia bareback!!! What do you think?
@@YourRidingSuccess That would be awesome. My biggest issue is my horse going beyond the vertical when I ask for more impulsion, instead of raising the base of his neck.
I love this so much! So informative, inspiring and encourage to do things we dream of)) I like to use the same approach with my students "its only seems as difficult but, look, you can! I explain how")
Очень нравится Ваш формат видео - посмотрел утром/вечером/в обед маленький, понятный ролик и побежал пробовать с лошадью🐎 Я тренирую всадников, раньше была в конкуре, в выездке без тренера 4-5 лет на своих лошадях. Учусь на своих ошибках (мало средств на спорт) и на крупицах информации в интернете
I'm loving these videos and learning so much! Thanks for explaining in a way that is easy to understand and inspiring. Can you do a video about starting a horse in the double bridle?
I love this kind of videos. They really help me and I think a lot of other people as well with there horses. I’m showjumper and that kind of videos improved my riding and my horses relaxation… thank you for being such an amazing inspiration.
Wow, thank you! Tash and Alicia will love that show-jumpers are also enjoying their videos! It is Alicias little goal to do GP show jumping too!! Did you have any other topics you were wondering about? We would love to hear from you and hopefully help!
@@YourRidingSuccess not really any specific topics. I really love videos like this because show jumpers without basic dressage can never be successful in the bigger classes…so thank you for everything!
This is great-im just starting to learn dressage and about the weight aids, so this is all super helpful to understand how the horses I ride have been trained, and how I can move towards them looking like the 'after' version that they are already capable of 😆 Something for all levels here 👍 Love the fact you colour coordinate with the horse 😊❤
You are so welcome Becky! next episode on Tuesday is actually about where the weight goes... so you should love that! Did you have any other topics you were wondering about? We would love to hear from you and hopefully help!
You're so welcome! Alicia is so passionate that everyone can do this! She really believes in the systems! Did you have any suggestions of topics or more questions? We really want to tailor this to YOU!
Love this! Its so easy to think a horse can't do it because they aren't 'naturally flashy' I love the break down here. I wish I had a horse i could work with right now! My part-lease horse is great, but not really mine to turn into a training project as much as I may like. Someday though! I wish I was up in over in your area (and very lucky!) Wessel looks like such a fun ride!
@@YourRidingSuccess I think it would be cool to see this go even further and talk about training piaffe. I'm not even close to there, but am always interested in the training method for something like that!
Thanks Erica! Yes this has been asked for a little bit recently.... so we are putting one together! Leave that with us! Look out for it on a Tuesday or a Thursday
@@YourRidingSuccess it would be good to have some beginner tips etc, I have learnt some good leg aids etc but it’s difficult to get regular lessons and rides. So I do vaulting as well for balance and fun!
Rebekah! Thank you!!!! Can you please help us a bit? Can you email me at socials.yourridingsuccess@gmail.com with an explanation of the questions you would really like to be answered.... go crazy with it!!! Alicia will go through it all and get it out to you on some epic videos!!xx
I have a horse who has the most amazing trot in the field. His trot was improving so much under saddle before he went on box rest. This was a really helpful video. Hopefully I can put it in to action, depending on whether my horse is able to work again.
Awesome, thank you so much! One question has been focused around what to do when you loose your balance... So we might add a video in between this and step 2, showing what to do when you loose your balance! Thinking Alicia bareback!!! What do you think?
@@YourRidingSuccess Alicia's bareback videos will always amaze me haha! Definitely maybe explaining how to count rhythm and strides to help with balance, what to do in situations where you're thrown off balance and how to regain it. Of course yes bareback would help! I am a pararider and unfortunately cannot ride bareback anymore so other ideas in the video would be helpful :)
Thank you! Yes, we were thinking bareback more from the point of view, that it may be the only way we can unbalance Alicias seat! lol So our idea is, that because Alicia will make mistakes she will be able to show you how to reach when you loose your balance
Thank you so so so much for this video! I've struggled for so long to find a video properly explaining getting this 'fancy' or 'second' trot and FINALLY here is one! Subscribed and looking forward to watching many many more videos, especially about developing the trot :D Thank you again!
Thanks so much Angelyn! Alicia was nervous, so these comments will help so much! Did you have any questions or suggestion for more content.. we would love to tailor it to you ask much as we can!
Your fitness Alicia is wonderful because to talk for us while riding these videos and the trots in this session is impressive. Horse is lovely and may you go well for a long time as i have ridden horses still in late 20s with suppleness benefits! Just curious re behind the vertical? Later after the session he appears stretched and soft with an beautiful open gullet. Is this just a warming up posture for him? Thanks for a great video 💕
Thank you Alice, yes Alicia is very fit which is important while riding. Great question, I am going to ask Alicia to answer this one for you in some more detail ✨

Thank you so much Alicia! I have been wondering for sooooo long, how to create an attractive/fancy trot. I could never find something that really gave me thorough instructions but now I have! Thank you soooooo much!
YAYYYYYYY!!!!! So pleased you liked it!!! Bethany, let us now ANYTHING you can think of that you would like to know more about.... Alicia is very keen to break anything down you are wanting to hear!
This is the greatest video Alicia!! Viewing no. 33!!! Greatest recipe, greatest Wessel!!! ❤❤❤ Love it! Inspirational! That video changed my riding life, changed my belief system!! Thankyou a million, sending big flashy trot feelings to Wess & Alicia during his recovery!! 🥰🥰🥰🐴🐎🐎🐎🙏🙏🙏💖
WOW!! Super amazing!! Glad the technique worked for you!! x
I am a little confused. Same show but different woman doing videos? Both are enjoyable, and more importantly not only informational, but also oddly assuring. These videos always build my confidence and are inspirational in addition to the highly useful educacional component. I watch them before and after my lessons and find them really useful. Huge fan!
Thank you for your lovely comments and glad you love the videos. You are right that now Alicia is the one featured in the recent videos and Natasha was in the previous videos. Tash is still very much involved but in a slightly different capacity, if you watch this video Tash explains it more th-cam.com/video/knoEf_zA0ns/w-d-xo.html ✨
Just re watched this as just joined Di.
So inspiring, so descriptive.
Can't wait to have a try.
Go for it, Sharon! Let us know how you go!
Yes! Thanks for this one!!
You're so welcome!
I’m loving your energy and enthusiasm Alicia!
Thank you so much Jessica! So glad you enjoyed it!!
Did you have any more questions? We can feed them back to Alicia! She is super keen to make these videos as much about you as possible!
I love when she said YOU CAN DO THIS WITH ANY HORSE! That gives hope for me who ride OTTB most of the times 🥰🥰
so pleased!!!! Everyone deserves to learn this stuff!! love it!
How are you getting on with our subscribe to be in the draw to win comp? :-)
Thank you for another amazingly helpful video Alicia. I tried this guidance today in my lesson and although it was hard, I managed to get some great moments where my horse was (whose 20+ years old!) engaging her rear and lifting her pole so was in an outline. I have never experienced this before with her. My coach was wonderful and helped guide me like you on how to do this and what to look out for, what to feel more importantly! Amazing I can't wait to ride again. Xxx
Sounds fantastic! Well done! Thanks so much for sharing your experience!! :)
Wow … this was so helpful ! I’ve never heard it be explained so well 🤩 definitely going to try get a “fancier trot” in my next ride !
Glad it was helpful Lara! Alicia is so passionate that everyone can do this! She really believes in the systems! Did you have any suggestions of topics or more questions? We really want to tailor this to YOU!
@@YourRidingSuccess My horse often falls out on the circle, some advice on how to stop this would help … and I’m always trying to improve my position and my knowledge on how to influence my horse more with my seat, so anything with regards to this would be helpful !
Thanks so much Lara! Keep commenting and asking for more! We have been inundated today with comments!!
Lucky enough.... this whole month is about how your seat influences the horse! So stay tuned!!
OMG!! I loved this video and by the end of the summer I will be jumping
Love this! Go Riley! :)
Thank you so much Alicia
I love how you break everything down and are so specific with the aids.
You are my # 1 online trainer
YESSS!!! So glad you are enjoying the videos so much x
Miss you Tash but Alicia is great too. Glad she is doing a vid on leg yield soon. I would like a video on riding a 20m circle particularly in canter as I’m struggling with this at the moment. Thanks both xx
Great idea!! We actually have a 20m circle video planned and ready to go! So that will air this quarter... BUT we hadn't thought to add when cantering... So it is officially on the list! THANK YOU!!!xx
This is really good. Thank you for breaking it down.
You are most welcome, Sara!
Amazing - kovely and wonderful approach to dressage❤
Thank you so much! x
Really great instructions. You are very clear in your explanation on how to achieve this - which is not easy to do! Well done, you!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you! What is your best "ah ha moment" from the videos so far?
I just wanted to say that I found the info on how to bring the horse into a higher frame SO HELPFUL!! (This is definitely something I struggle with on horses who haven't been taught a higher carriage by someone else!) It was really cool to see Wessel naturally rebalance himself for a few strides after the leg yield. Great video!
Glad it helped Aysha! Did you see the leg yield video today? x
This video is just what i've been looking for, thank you so much for explaining this in detail. dressage instructors generally never give you this kind of information. I'm going to practice this tomorrow.
You're very welcome!
How are you getting on with our subscribe to be in the draw to win comp? :-)
Thank you for this video. Seeing you ride while you break things down makes learning from you so much easier and having you break down each element to explain how they all come together helps it make more sense. More videos like this kind please 💕🐴🙏
Soo glad you enjoyed it!! More to come xx
Leaving for my lesson, watching you first for my daily dose of motivation and energy. 💥💥💥❣️
You got this! Check back in and tell us how you go!
@@YourRidingSuccess Honestly guys, I’ve been devouring the Your Riding Success Pilates coursework and riding videos. For the past 2 weeks my instructors and riding pals have been marveling at my consistent progression. I feel like I’m on a sugar high. Lolz. 🐎🍭 I only started riding in January and I’m 67. 👍🏼 Heartfelt thank you.
I am loving these basic videos! I pick one to watch before my ride, then work on incorporating what I learned from the video in my ride! Thank you for your excellent instruction, I love how you keep it simple, so motivating!
Glad you like them! Thank you so much! :)
Спасибо!!! 2 года назад у меня получилось добиться каденции на рыси с лошадью. Потом произошла травма и после этого у меня не получалось. Я долго искала информацию о том, как мне прийти к этому обратно. И ваше видео мне оказалось безумно полезным в этой теме на фоне 100 других
Thank you! :)
This is SO helpful! Thanks for breaking this down all the way back from the start like this. My coach has me do similar exercises but this was helpful because now I have a better idea of why we're doing the exercises, what to look for, and where it's all heading. Keep up the great content!! 💙
OH that is so great! Sometimes it is so much easier to learn, when you know where you are heading!!!! Alicia and Tash will love this!! Thanks for sharing!
Is there any topics or questions you would like us to give more insight too? We are trying to Taylor our content as much as we can toward you! x
I've tried this a few times now with my not so flashy jumping horse. She's very floor bound (not sure you say it that way un english), but she's a very economical mover 😅 finally getting some results from this and she's moving a bit bouncier and gets a bit of a nice frame 😃 love your videos! Very educational and motivational even for a showjumper 😁
Thanks for sharing! Good job!
I love you already! Thank you for your caring lessons that make dressage better for horses and riders! YOU ROCK AND THAT HORSE IS A PEARLER!
Wow! Thank you !
Your Riding Success of course you are a great person for inviting others into the mysterious world of dressage young and old. I couldn't help thinking of all the beginners and young riders that you inspire!! What a beautiful thing you are doing. Sometimes it can be very confusing and overwhelming..but with your gregarious heart ,enthusiasm,commitment to other riders and helping them "Get it" ..not to mention very professional approach ,I think you have no idea how many lives you touch! You touched mine and if I had the golden buzzer you'd be getting the golden buzzer right now(A.g.t.) lol. Thank you keep that good stuff up and thank you again see you again in a future video lesson. Have a good day
Wow, really wow! This makes it all worth it xxxxx
He couldn't wait to start working, so obvious at the beginning ❤
Yes. :)
Thanks for your encouragement! I am trying this!
You got this!
Awesome! Thankyou! Fantastic video - I love the emphasis on the training scale and the ability to develop the pace (trot) with quality and correct basics! So awesome to see it broken down in this way visually. Wow! Very much looking forward to future videos!
Mille, thank you so so much! Alicia loves to keep the education very correct, but still not confusing.
Did you have any more questions? We can feed them back to Alicia! She is super keen to make these videos as much about you as possible!
Great demo! Great explanation! Great steps. What is the wait 2 steps please? Love your method. Tips to use your thinking!!! Fabulous encouragement! OK have to go out & ride now!! ❤❤❤🐴
Hi Benita! The first step is getting Wessel to be moving in a normal trot where he is taking the contact down and forward. The second step is to get him to start picking up the frame- Alicia does this in the video by using a leg yield x
I ve never seen a video so easy to comprehend about something a bit sophisticated
Thank you so much for the feedback 🤩
Absolutely love this video! What a motivation and inspiration! Thank you!
And 18! He is such a legend!
Couldn't agree more!
Oh trust me I’d be happy with the first trot 😂 it was difficult enough to get mine to stop pacing and actually trot so please can you send me that trot in the post of something I want it 😂😂
Lol!!!! If only!!! So glad you are enjoying the videos!!
Did you have any more questions? We can feed them back to Alicia! She is super keen to make these videos as much about you as possible!
@@YourRidingSuccess anything about top line and building that up, as well as slowing the trot because my goodness she is fast. I do have videos of her on my TH-cam I think that’s easier than explaining her weird ways but she’s literally like a 4 year old in a 10 year olds body with the add on of being a racer 😂 so fun 😌👌🏻
Thanks Lola! great suggestions! Stay tuned! xx
I love how you break everything down for a way for everyone to understand.
Eder, Thank you very much1
One question has been focused around what to do when you loose your balance...
So we might add a video in between this and step 2, showing what to do when you loose your balance!
Thinking Alicia bareback!!! What do you think?
@@YourRidingSuccess That would be awesome. My biggest issue is my horse going beyond the vertical when I ask for more impulsion, instead of raising the base of his neck.
The tempo control video will really help here I think.... its still a few weeks away
Thank you! This is the best explanation I’ve ever heard! So helpful for my confidence! 😊💕
Glad it was helpfu! lThanks so much
Love this! I just got myself an OTTB. We had our first ride yesterday and simply worked on step 1- rhythm.
LOVE it! We can't wait to hear more about your progress x
Thanks for this video! Looks amazing 🤩💗
You're welcome! x
I love this so much! So informative, inspiring and encourage to do things we dream of)) I like to use the same approach with my students "its only seems as difficult but, look, you can! I explain how")
You're so welcome!
Очень нравится Ваш формат видео - посмотрел утром/вечером/в обед маленький, понятный ролик и побежал пробовать с лошадью🐎
Я тренирую всадников, раньше была в конкуре, в выездке без тренера 4-5 лет на своих лошадях. Учусь на своих ошибках (мало средств на спорт) и на крупицах информации в интернете
I'm loving these videos and learning so much! Thanks for explaining in a way that is easy to understand and inspiring. Can you do a video about starting a horse in the double bridle?
Great suggestion! I am going to add this to the list of videos that are requested - stay tuned!
I would love to see you train one from the ground up. This is beautiful! Thank you
Thank you Jay!!! Watch this space! you will get to meet Toto soon! He is our resident 4yo!
Great video! would love to see a video on how to encourage a horse that goes behind the vertical to reach forward, one of my horses really sucks back
I love the positivity :) thank you!
You are so welcome!
I love this kind of videos. They really help me and I think a lot of other people as well with there horses. I’m showjumper and that kind of videos improved my riding and my horses relaxation…
thank you for being such an amazing inspiration.
Wow, thank you! Tash and Alicia will love that show-jumpers are also enjoying their videos! It is Alicias little goal to do GP show jumping too!!
Did you have any other topics you were wondering about?
We would love to hear from you and hopefully help!
@@YourRidingSuccess not really any specific topics. I really love videos like this because show jumpers without basic dressage can never be successful in the bigger classes…so thank you for everything!
This is great-im just starting to learn dressage and about the weight aids, so this is all super helpful to understand how the horses I ride have been trained, and how I can move towards them looking like the 'after' version that they are already capable of 😆 Something for all levels here 👍 Love the fact you colour coordinate with the horse 😊❤
You are so welcome Becky!
next episode on Tuesday is actually about where the weight goes... so you should love that!
Did you have any other topics you were wondering about? We would love to hear from you and hopefully help!
You inspire my dream in riding dressage still have yet to find a trainer i mesh with but i know its something i wanna persue.
So glad we can help you on your journey!
I found this hugely helpful thankyou! Can't wait to put this into practice tomorrow. This was really fantastic 🤗
You're so welcome!
Alicia is so passionate that everyone can do this! She really believes in the systems!
Did you have any suggestions of topics or more questions? We really want to tailor this to YOU!
Love this! Its so easy to think a horse can't do it because they aren't 'naturally flashy' I love the break down here. I wish I had a horse i could work with right now! My part-lease horse is great, but not really mine to turn into a training project as much as I may like. Someday though! I wish I was up in over in your area (and very lucky!) Wessel looks like such a fun ride!
Thanks so much Erica! Let us know if there is anything you'd like to see us cover!x
@@YourRidingSuccess I think it would be cool to see this go even further and talk about training piaffe. I'm not even close to there, but am always interested in the training method for something like that!
Thanks Erica! Yes this has been asked for a little bit recently.... so we are putting one together! Leave that with us! Look out for it on a Tuesday or a Thursday
I could listen to your voice all day lady :D
Wow, thank you!
This is exciting! I’m only still in a walk in my riding and can’t wait to get back into it as soon as I can!
HI Rebekah! There is still SOOOOO much you can do in walk!!!! Would this be a topic you may like to see?
@@YourRidingSuccess it would be good to have some beginner tips etc, I have learnt some good leg aids etc but it’s difficult to get regular lessons and rides. So I do vaulting as well for balance and fun!
Rebekah! Thank you!!!!
Can you please help us a bit? Can you email me at socials.yourridingsuccess@gmail.com
with an explanation of the questions you would really like to be answered.... go crazy with it!!!
Alicia will go through it all and get it out to you on some epic videos!!xx
@@YourRidingSuccess sounds good! I’ll put on my thinking cap!
This is amazing. Thank you!
Glad you loved it!
I love this motivation and attitiude, thanks! 😁
You are so welcome!
Wonderful = you are a very good trainer!
Wow, thank you😍
Wharch this again 2day so going to have a real go at this if we get a break in the weather.
We can't wait to hear how it goes when you try it out x
I have a horse who has the most amazing trot in the field. His trot was improving so much under saddle before he went on box rest. This was a really helpful video. Hopefully I can put it in to action, depending on whether my horse is able to work again.
Thanks for sharing Rachael!! What happened to you horse? Why was he on box rest?
Feeling inspired! Thank you for breaking this down in this video
You're so welcome!
I really love how you show the process! It's so informative!
Kelsy! thank you! xx
Lovely video
Thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mary Jo
This video is so inspiring I return to watch it periodically 💗
This is super!! Thanks, Mary Jo! xx
Thank you this was so helpful x
You're so welcome!
The circles helped my mare
So glad to hear! x
Yes...inspiration..well shown an pleasure to watch. Thank you
Thank you so much
My mom's and my horse naturally trot like this. My mom's mare is a welsh d and my horse is a welsh d - paint horse mix. He got his mom's trot xD
Love it!
You are so inspiring, you make everything so easy to understand! Thank you 😊
You are so welcome!
I loved this! Improved my riding really helped thank you 👌😁
Great to hear this!! You are AMAZING xx
Brilliant video! So inspiring for us with horses that aren't purpose bred for dressage, a little hard work goes a long way!!
Sure does Dusky! Please let us know if you have anymore questions we can answer for you!
Came across your video and what a beautiful way that you broke down the steps. You’re an amazing instructor.
Wow, thank you Kerry!
Did you have any topics or questions you might like us to cover?
Very helpful. Thanks!
🤩
This is awesome, I want a play on Wessel!!!
How amazing is Wessel! Have you seen our 1 million subscriber competition? It is a chance to learn on a "Wessel" type horse 🤩
Thank you for the training! Your explanation is very clear. Already subscribed!!
Thank you 🤩
This makes SO much sense. I have been looking for some fun yet educational dressage videos and loved finding this!
Awesome, thank you so much!
One question has been focused around what to do when you loose your balance...
So we might add a video in between this and step 2, showing what to do when you loose your balance!
Thinking Alicia bareback!!! What do you think?
@@YourRidingSuccess Alicia's bareback videos will always amaze me haha! Definitely maybe explaining how to count rhythm and strides to help with balance, what to do in situations where you're thrown off balance and how to regain it. Of course yes bareback would help! I am a pararider and unfortunately cannot ride bareback anymore so other ideas in the video would be helpful :)
Thank you! Yes, we were thinking bareback more from the point of view, that it may be the only way we can unbalance Alicias seat! lol
So our idea is, that because Alicia will make mistakes she will be able to show you how to reach when you loose your balance
Thank you so so so much for this video! I've struggled for so long to find a video properly explaining getting this 'fancy' or 'second' trot and FINALLY here is one! Subscribed and looking forward to watching many many more videos, especially about developing the trot :D Thank you again!
Hi Laura! Thanks so much for your support! Glad you enjoyed it! Did you see our completion to win a paid year learning o a PSG horse? x
Wonderful explanation, but showing the before, during and after was incredible. Thank you.
Awesome, thank you Christy! Did you have any topics or questions you might like us to cover?
Amazing video. Very educational and inspiring. Thank you!
Thanks so much Angelyn! Alicia was nervous, so these comments will help so much!
Did you have any questions or suggestion for more content.. we would love to tailor it to you ask much as we can!
Your fitness Alicia is wonderful because to talk for us while riding these videos and the trots in this session is impressive.
Horse is lovely and may you go well for a long time as i have ridden horses still in late 20s with suppleness benefits!
Just curious re behind the vertical? Later after the session he appears stretched and soft with an beautiful open gullet.
Is this just a warming up posture for him?
Thanks for a great video 💕
Thank you Alice, yes Alicia is very fit which is important while riding. Great question, I am going to ask Alicia to answer this one for you in some more detail ✨
He is STUNNING!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! We think so!! 💕
