Dressage is a very complicated thing. It takes loads and loads of practice. LOADS. To be able to go out there, be on your horse, not knowing what can happen, and do it gracefully, is REALLY stunning.
Exactly, I get very tired of people thinking jumping is harder! Dressage, cross country, show jumping, they’re all SO difficult because of the certain skill sets they require from horse and rider!
Emelie Emeraldlake I really doubt that this lovely amazing rider beats her horse. She knows more than you do, that’s why she has a world champion horse on her hands not you.
Emelie Emeraldlake And yes I admit it dressage CAN be abusive and it can hurt horse, make the horses mouth bleed and the horses head is in the chest. I know that for a fact, I have seen some horses in GP level that look like pure trash and they don’t enjoy it. They swish their tails and their mouth bleeds, owners pull their reins and all that. I know and I admit it 100%, but if Valegro would be abuses in any way he would not be a world champion and world record breaker.
Dujardin has the unique ability to keep a horse balanced laterally and longitudinally within the idea of collection like no other, Nicole Uphoff had the same talent.
what I love about Dressage is it is a truly unique blend of horsemenship that does not involve torturing the horse to do unnatural things like high stepping Tennessee walkers which is outlawed but still going on
@Princess Tubehead I've watched 100's of horse training and videos of all types of riding. Some are so so bad. I do like Western though, just cringe when I see how they train them over in S.A. it's heartbreaking
@@ValentinG23 No.. lost my respect, had truly hoped most people involved with these incredible creatures had evolved way beyond this thoughtless and cruel behaviour.
pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease upload the full replay of the 2016 equestrian eventing cross country!!! I've been so sad for 4 years that a full replay of that amazing course isn't available anywhere!
To all the people who dream that they would someday participate and win equestrian Olympics, dont let others tell you it's a dream "too big" and "it's something you can only dream of" or "it's out of your league, change your dream" or anything like that. I mean what about the other Olympics winners? They didnt give up right? Then why will you? Dreams can be big. They should be big! And I'm telling everyone, to the next generation. Dont EVER let's others thoughts on your dreams make you give up. You WILL accomplish your dream as long as you WORK for it. And remember "If your dreams dont scare you, they are too small."
Wow, thank you. Really needed to see this since it’s my dream to one day compete at the Olympics in dressage along with so many other hefty goals that scare the living daylights out of me because I sometimes have crippling doubt that I’ll never make it. But that’s just negative self talk. I will make it, I will make it happen because it’s one of the few things I can’t get out of my head and I need to hold on to it and let it take me as far as I can go. Your words were really inspiring, I wish you good luck and every good fortune in your dreams🤗
I was told by an experienced dressage trainer that it takes about 13 years to train a horse to do high-level dressage moves; horses live on average into their late 20’s. As amazing as these warmbloods are, still the Spanish Riding School and their Lipizzaners take dressage to a whole ‘nother level. Amazing.
Just watched your video with Muffin. A lovely pony who knows her mind. I would definately take lessons with her. I was around horses since l was 3, but my experience is limited.
It's tough, i tried the same with this raccoon hanging around my house. I just got scratched to bits, and he wasn't even good at it. He couldn't even pull off a decent Pas De Deux.
I am no way discrediting the hard work of modern equestrians and horses,but dressage has changed soooo much over the past decades.(For reference,I was born in 1950)The standards have changed so much!Nowadays they seem to put more importance on how far the horse can throw it’s legs haha.Back then the standards for rhythm and harmony were a lot higher.Kinda sad if you think about it.I see a lot of great horses with almost everything that don’t get too far just cause they can’t make 7 feet steps.
Sadly I think the issue is how humans always want more. Most horses have a completly disengaged hind and just flail their front because that's the way they've been trained. I would say Carl Hester is quite close to the dressage from years ago, or mainly the dressage before rollkur. Rollkur creates an artifical front and a dragging hind which pleases the uneducated eye, and is also a shortcut for many riders. A big step becomes wonderful when trained correctly and when gives time, just like a small step becomes equally wonderful. Both trained in a harmful way creates a disengaged and tense horse. I could give several examples of horses that have a clearly hollow back and disengaged hind and link studies on how behind the vertical can affect the horse (:
😅😅 I like horses but unfortunately have only been on a horse twice. I don't know a thing about Dressage but I really wish I did so I could better appreciate all the work that I'm sure goes into these performances. I wish I could see it with a riders eye. LOL I don't understand how they get their horses to do all this. I keep watching close to see how they make them dance but I literally don't even see the rider do anything. I'm sure they're doing a lot..I know they are but I can't tell. 😭
Would love to see a future where spurs are removed from competitive dressage and perhaps all manner of bits too. There seems to be far too much rib poking happening and sadly too many of these beautiful creatures look stressed and unhappy. Once you notice these things, it's hard to enjoy the performances 😔
My experience: Look up the history of horseshoes, see terms like "farrier" and "dressage," hmm what is that? Okay, I see pictures, but it looks just like fancy pomp horse riding, maybe if I see it in action I'll understand a little better. So I hop on TH-cam, click around on this, and see the first time mark for the American. Huh, that looks really regal and elegant. He's dressed to the 9s and putting on airs of posh and polish. Aaaand then Ice Ice Baby starts.
And he shouldn’t have used that music because it was plagiarised from the band Queen and Under Pressure.. look it up. As for Dressage it’s wonderful and VERRRY difficult ..I know. 😂😂🏴🇬🇧
It is so annoying that the British commentator just kept on talking about Charlotte Dujardin and Carl Hester when other riders were in the middle of their test. If you can't not show bias, you shouldn't be commentating unless it's for British tv. Really disrespectful behavior! I know every Brit in the dressage world loves to gush over their national stars but this is not the place to do it and it doesn't show a lot of professionalism either.
Exactly! Especially if you consider that Germany 🇩🇪 as a whole is better. The German commentator usually gushes about other riders‘ performances, too. He is absolutely brilliant
I like to watch dressage videos..Like this. but put the song hypnotize by biggie over it. so it sounds like the horse is dancing to it...DOES ANYONE ELSE DO THIS?

Thanks!!!
Thank you so much
Carl Hester’s ride on Nip Tuck was beautiful. He makes it look effortless and has a wonderful partnership with the horse.
Dressage is a very complicated thing. It takes loads and loads of practice. LOADS. To be able to go out there, be on your horse, not knowing what can happen, and do it gracefully, is REALLY stunning.
I totally agree
I would love to learn, I trained western, can teach a lead change side-pass turn on haunches/forehand and driving minis nothing like this though lol
You forgot LOADS.
Exactly, I get very tired of people thinking jumping is harder! Dressage, cross country, show jumping, they’re all SO difficult because of the certain skill sets they require from horse and rider!
Dressage isnt a sport it is a DISCRASE
Charlotte and Valegro were the only ones who brought tears to my eyes and took my breath away. Perfection at its best.
I've never watched any equestrian event on the channel before, looking forward to more!
Valegro will go down as one of the greatest horses of all time.
Come to newent, Gloucestershire. We have a bronze statue of valegro and Charlotte's gold post box! Charlotte and Carl ard local.
Valegro
I hope so!What a joy to watch!

Dancing horses are incredible indeed. They were trained excellently and this event is absolutely fun to watch.
Fun for you, but what about the horse?
Emelie Emeraldlake to me it doesn’t look like he is protesting that much.
Emelie Emeraldlake i mean his tail is still, he is listening to his rider and that’s why his ears are like that.
SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE
Emelie Emeraldlake I really doubt that this lovely amazing rider beats her horse. She knows more than you do, that’s why she has a world champion horse on her hands not you.

How about all the abuse that goes into the training omg its disgusting no horse lovers here
With music it's much more interesting to watch than before.
💗🙂
3:24 Isabel Werth and Weihegold, the absolute BEST
NO … Valegro and Charlotte are the best.. a gold medal said so.
no
Charlotte Dujardin is an incredible dressage rider, maybe best ever, just fabulous ❤
Still feel the same about her ???
@@ValentinG23 No.. lost my respect, had truly hoped most people involved with these incredible creatures had evolved way beyond this thoughtless and cruel behaviour.
I love it when riders make there horses do stuff and it looks so effortless.
it is not just STUFF!!!!!! ugh

Absolutely magnificent horse , Valegro, and excellent rider as well trained by the best in Carl Hester!
Yep was a magnificent horse until his brutal training disgusting
Anyone else find it satisfying when riders pat their horse with their walking rhythm after a test?

Thank you for the extraordinary coverage. Love to Charlotte and Valegro 🎉 😊
Makes me miss my beautiful horse😢

I love watching this! I plan on making my horse into a dressage horse and this just inspires me❤

Stupendous work everyone

5:49 amazing
That was pretty awesome some difficult moves there, loved it
Judy’s from Ireland music is just beautiful!
2:44:31 Charlotte Dujardin
Imma do this with my dog.
Good luck comarad
karima karamel believe me it’s easier with a dog
Hmm.....good luck
Just don't kick him if he fails a Pas de deux.
Its one of the best recommendations ever🤩
Dressage is a connection between horse and rider, huge amounts practice, it’s a partnership that can only be called a soulmate connection ❤️❤️
i’m having fun watching it in x2
Me to!!!
《いやはや、驚いたなぁもぅ❢》
こんなふうにステップ踏むんだぁ、いや、踏ませるんだぁ❢❢❢
It would be amazing if you could add the individual showjumping final.
Amazing horses and riders!
I was so happy for Kristina!!
Kristina was the best only eyes! Much more effortless than Charlotte or isabell
The quarter marks at 56:17!

I still remember i comment one post about horse feet so so so beautiful.
I love jumping too .
U come for camera !
Isabel is still the absolute best, seeing her dance with Weihegold brings tears to my eyes
Frau Rollkur und Doping
there are some beautiful canter pierouttes!
Endlich 🥰
I plan on getting my own dressage horse 💕
is the horse an athlete?
MrSecretsLife there both athletes
Of course they are.. they couldn’t do it otherwise. ..
My mind when the contestants trot around the arena: BoInGi BoNgI
Agreed...Ferocious
'
Gorgeous
Awesome!!
2:08:04 this horse was breathing so hard, I’ve never seen a horse so outta breathe in dressage
Stefan and Legalos seemed a little tired is all, more energy in canterwork would’ve been perfect. Awesome though.
I like how the horse looks likr it's dancing when it does that trot kinda thing
Would love to see a future where spurs are removed from competitive dressage and perhaps all manner of bits too. There seems to be far too much rib poking happening and sadly too many of these beautiful creatures look stressed and unhappy. Once you notice these things, it's hard to enjoy the performances 😔
Don Perrigon? Is that the same horse newton and Jess had in their stable?
Were those stands ever populated?

Did Johnson look very stiff and perhaps sore in his test. He seemed to struggle in his work to my eyes. Beautiful movement though.

How on earth do you teach a horse to do this?
They naturally do things like this when trying to impress to impress other horses. It’s nothing made up
