This was so clear and looks very difficult to ride correctly. I’d love to try it ! We're a long way from being able to ride it but I'd like to attempt it. Thanks for an excellent video. Germán taught so well and Caine rode so well too1

Thank you for this, I'm new to Advanced Medium in NZ, and I've been riding the renvers part of the movement with far too much bend. So actually not renvers at all so it seems.... Wonderful explanation and video to sink into my pea brain. Looking forward to practicing this now. Thank you so much.
The part in the Renverse where Herman says "the hips keep coming to this corner". Is he talking about the corner he is standing next to or the other corner to the left of our screen? Trying to understand where the energy of the horse is. is it on the left front shoulder when he is bending right in renverse? Watching a lot of Phillipe Karl. Trying to really understand which quarter of the horse the energy is and where my balance should be. Thank you! Super super video, super good timing for me as I went to bed trying to visualize this exact exercise. Thank you so much for all the time you put into these
Quick question, do you know if you can do some sort of video of teaching an energetic, squiggly horse to stand still in cross ties? I have a new horse, but she’s not really use to cross ties. If not it’s totally fine!
I have some videos that help with that in my course: Groundwork Essentials amelianewcombdressage.com/groundwork-essentials/?General You could also check out this mini-course, it has some basic manners stuff to get you started: amelianewcombdressage.com/evaluate-your-horses-ground-manners-o/?TH-cam&Weekly+Videos
I school at first level but we practice/try higher level movements like shoulder in. I was told to keep outside leg at the girth to push the shoulders over and inside leg behind the girth to keep the haunches on the wall. Is this wrong? I was told that the reins would only flex the head to the inside and the outside leg is needed at the girth to push the shoulders over. Dressage is so hard because I get conflicting information like this and where to weight your seat, at the inside bend or on the outside when practicing lateral movements.
Great question! I think what's happening is that 'inside' and 'outside' change depending on which bend the horse is going. So I'm saying the same thing, just referring to it as a different way than you're thinking of it. In 1st level, 'inside' and 'outside' aids are always the inside and outside of the arena, but once we get to second level, it can change when we bring in bending to the outside (like in renvers and counter canter). great question!

That was great! I love how her horse stretches his neck down at the end, he's so nice and relaxed.
excellent description and view of both exercises! thank you, Amelia and German.
Love that I came across this video as I was having trouble with this move in Third level test 2.

Correct me if I'm wrong, her shoulder fores were on four tracks versus three? Maybe it doesn't matter?
Why is this movement ridden with the outside leg back?
Simply, to add bend. But it also controls the haunches and direction. Otherwise it would be leg yield and counter bent leg yield. Great question!
