How To Fix Flying Changes with a Young Horse | Dressage Tutorial | Begijnhoeve | How to #13

[@cybersas]

Fantastic - so helpful. I love to see good riders showing when things are not going quite perfectly and how they work through them gently in a relaxed way without overstressing the horse. Nicely done!

[@COUNTRY16JL]

This horse is dreamy!!! I LOVE him!!!!!!!!!

[@KatharinaHB]

..."...don't freak out..." is probably the most important sentence in that video 😅 great video and explanation! Love you guys!

[@adamwinbourne9128]

Thanks very very much this was so helpful, I think it is really despondent when you are struggling with these probs it’s nice to see everyone has these niggles when teaching a horse a change , also some super ideas as always on how to overcome these problems , I think your big point here is to have control over the canter and it must be active which you could clearly see the difference . Your videos are literally brilliant I cannot express how helpful they are , once again thank you for taking the time to do these 👍

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Thnx so much 🤗

[@angelikaschmied5255]

Thank you so much for this helpfull explanation and Demonstration 🤩👏

[@ArizonaAirspace]

I really like your riding style. It’s also so refreshing to see an expert rider such as yourself riding with the correct stirrup length, unlike so many others who ride with way too long stirrups and their feet are reaching for the stirrups. Your legs are naturally dropped with your heels down naturally with the correct stirrup length. Your riding style is reminiscent of the great Old Riding Masters of the 19th Century. These giants are not easy to ride, especially as green horses in training, but you handled it very nicely.

[@katieerpel9981]

Thank you for showing the mistakes, that makes it even more helpful as a training video 🙏

[@CAR0TASTISCH]

Thank you for actually showing a horse that's late behind and how to correct it! I've been having a hard time with my mare and looking for videos online who show horses that are struggling and don't do it perfect just yet! Thank you!

[@johanaanderssonova9651]

Thank you! Perfect tip! I have PRE who moves a bit different than warmbloods so when I teach him a flying change he tries to escape with twisting his body or make a minisinglechange. I did a counter canter moved his haunches in as you recommended and bingo! he did it👌

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Awesome! 🥳

[@rockannand]

I appreciated you rolling back your instruction on how to start the changes with a young horse. Haunches-in at Counter-canter was a real help, as well as, activating the canter prior to asking for it. I noticed your aid for CC, right rein, using your inside leg behind the girth. In your previous video, you talked about Tempi right rein, right leg aid...left rein, left leg aid?? That confuses me. So, with advanced horses...we are introducing new aids for canter for the more advanced Changes? For younger less educated horses, we use the diagonal aids [right leg, left rein] If this is correct, when do we introduce it the more advance tempi aid?

[@helenmclennan9767]

Thank you for this. I'm currently struggling with my mare - who does know how to do changes! But she has decided that left-right change won't be happening. I think I will try this counter-canter exercise with her and see if it helps. I have a dodgy right hip so maybe that isn't helping. Lovely horse, lovely riding btw.

[@samanthagrimes9723]

Thanks so much. It is so great to see such honest and real videos.

[@trabash505]

One of the hardest things to train for some horses! This is such a great breakdown of how to simplify the changes and get them trained right!! I hate seeing forced, tense changes!! Beautifully ridden, Rob! Kane is amazing! Have you chosen a baby babe yet?

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Thnx 🤗🤗 No havent decided yet ! But we will !

[@Mosha1985]

Thanks from saudi arabia Good 👍

[@amyoconnor3155]

Thank you so much for this! I am having trouble getting my horse to understand the change. He understands how to do it over a pole on the ground, but does not respond to my aid when I remove the pole. Do you have any suggestions?

[@eileenbakker9264]

Het lastige vind ik om te voelen wanneer ik de hulp moet geven. Ik hoor jou ook zeggen: when it feels good. Maar het lastige is dat ik niet aanvoel wanneer je het met doen. Mijn paard spring wel voor om sinds kort maar achter niet... super bedankt voor de video super leerzaam!

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Als zn hoofd omhoog komt voor de galopsprong dan kan je de hulp geven. Succes 💪🏻💪🏻

[@allisonhulley5970]

Great to see this video. I have a young horse turning five. He is huge nearly 18hh and big boned and I am 125 lbs and 5’5”. I bought him at 11 months and never knew he would grow so big. He looks and acts very much like Kane. What I wonder is what age did you put Kane in a double bridle and why? Is he already what we would call third level here on the USA? I have put one of my other horses in a double at five cos he just went better in it. It is a bit different riding a very big horse although he is light to ride and pleasant by nature. Would love to see more of training the younger horse seen as I have two.

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Thnx. We recently started riding him on a double. Actually just a few weeks haha We try to see when they are ready for it or when we think it will be helpful for them. But always when they turn 6 or later if they are not ready 😎

[@louisnealon6811]

Hello Rob! Would it be helpful to introduce the first few changes on a corner of the school out of counter canter and then, once he has the idea as to what you are asking him for, move to the long side of the school? What do you think?

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Hi Louis well we actually have a rule to not do it in the corner🤪 Because most of the time the horses already turn their shoulders first because of the corner. So the balance wil be more on the inside shoulder what makes it more difficult to change in one time. But for instance when you have a horse who is late in the front it might be useful to do it like that! So yea with every horse it’s a little different! 😎

[@binatitagain]

I wanted to ask the same question!:) I showed a 14.2hh Arabian gelding at 3rd level and my hope is to get him ready for 4th/PSG. He tends to rush after the f-c or he can be late behind sometimes so I tried doing them in the corner from the counter-canter a few times and it seemed to help but I think I may try this exercise (I guess this could cause further issues down the road with straightness with the tempis?). Thanks

[@marijkevandermeer2772]

Beautiful! ❤

[@darishvarts5302]

Thank you so much for sharing this moments with us!😌 This is really helpful. But have you ever had problems with horses above 180? It's just that their tendons suffer more from weight. Have you encountered this? Also, do you guys shoe your horses? Thanking you in anticipation! Have a nice week!

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

This horse is above 180 haha I am not sure if the tendons suffer more because of the weight.... yes we do shoe our horses. 😁

[@BbYtube80]

Met de B van Boeiend! Many thanks Rob! #wilikook!

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Als het maar niet de B van Belabberd is, vind ik het goed 😅😁 Thx !

[@yvonnezoetigheid]

Rob, thank you for this video. Can you explain what means “ he is late behind”?

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Yes Sure. It means he makes the Flying change with his Front legs and one ( or more ) paces later in his Hind legs. It should be simultaneously

[@inkaspatafora8166]

Thank you for you great videos. Could you talk a little bit about your seat bones and how you sit in regards to riding the inside or outside seat bone. Do you ride the inside or outside outside hind leg in true canter or do you ride them equal in the middle? Thank you in advance for your reply. I am looking forward to it. I have a very sensitive PRE that reacts to the smales changes in his and my lateral balance.

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Just sit straight on every seat bone

[@inkaspatafora8166]

@@Begijnhoeve_official That's what I have discovered as well. I was curious what you do. By keeping the balance even over both seat bones, the horse can more easily find and maintain his own balance. Thank you so much for your reply.

[@davidcarter3049]

Really good video.. in terms of a horse being stiffer on one side, would an outside flexion help with the hind leg change, rather than flexing to match the inside fore..ie does an inside flexion for the change interfer with his balance,,, once he is more supple in balance and understands what’s being asked he will find it easy.. I see him in a field cantering free, when he makes a right turn, he naturally throws his head to the left for balance , whereas as when he canters left, he bends his head left.. naturally, he would do a right flying change with his head to the outside..just a thought

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Yes we many times keep the head a bit to the outside, especially when the horse is late behind! If that goes ok, try to make the horse more and more straight

[@kristinashatkova7611]

Great lesson, thank you! And I like the way you make your videos! Can I ask what kind of gear do you use? Camera, microphone, radio system etc. Thanks in advance! ;)

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

We use for the riding part the cannon fx400. And the other camera is a Sony a7c

Ook een beauty hoor Kane, en hij deed het goed hoor ja voor een paard die net begint met dit, je moet het hem toch maar allemaal duidelijk maken en ik vind dat knap., en helemaal voor zo,n groot paard. Is kane groter als Heros??. Wat is eigenlijk jullie grootste paard op stal, de mooiste weet ik alleen niet de grootste.Hebben alle paarden goed gereageerd op de injectie voor het virus. En die foto,s komen heel mooi uit met dat licht erachter heel mooi had ik al een tijdje geleden willen zeggen. Ja hele goede uitleg Rob daar kunnen een heleboel ruiters weer blij mee zijn en ik vond het heel mooi om te zien, bedankt voor weer een goeie video, toppie

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Ja deze is stuk groter dan Heros haha Kane en figaro zijn beide boven de 180 🙃. We hebben nog niet geënt dat moet nog gebeuren 😉

[@StaldeYwert]

Ik ben wel benieuwd hoe jullie een paard de galopwissel aanleren. Moet daar zelf binnenkort ook mee aan de slag. Maar heb dat nog nooit aan een paard geleerd.

[@kellywalker3299]

I have an X buggy horse who was told not to canter. He canters now and now is adjustable He used to trot out of canter if I blinked thinking he wasn’t allowed. My problem is getting flying change. He changes by using the tip of his front hoof to change leads. It’s so fast if you blink you miss it. But it’s not correct and of course can’t think about tempis till it’s correct. I’ve never had such a reaction. He’s come along way in his canter work. Half pass schooling pirouettes ect and does all the GP in trot. I’ve fixed others horses in changes up to the ones. I really think it’s a mental challenge for this guy. He’s really trying to work with me but his default is to trot out of canter when he feels he’s wrong From his past being punished for cantering at all as a baby. Any tips ??

[@eveliend7234]

Leuke video weer! Wat ik me nog afvraag is hoe je juist het verschil maakt tussen die leg yield en dan de hulp voor de wissel. En ben je in deze fase streng op dat ze reageren op de wisselhulp, of mag het enkele galoppassen duren voor de wissel komt? En als ze dus niet meteen reageren, hoe pak je het dan aan? Je sprak van je zweepje aan nieuwe buitenzijde dus vermoedelijk daarmee toch even extra vragen?

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Hi Evelien, nee het is zeker in deze fase niet zo dat je van je paard verlangd dat hij meteen reageert. In begin wanneer je paar het nog niet begrijpt zul je het moeten herhalen tot hij het begrijpt en dan belonen. Dat is het stukje waar Rob vertelde dat je niet te veel moet gaan helpen maar rustig blijft herhalen tot je paard het begrijpt op een ‘simple’ hulp. Het zweepje kan idd soms daarbij helpen! De wisselende hulp is een beetje het zelfde als leg yield. In de andere video over de changes leg ik daar meer over uit weet niet of je die gezien hebt?

[@eveliend7234]

@@Begijnhoeve_official Je mag dus gerust de wisselhulp paar passen aanhouden dan? Dankje alvast!

[@Begijnhoeve_official]

Ja zeker! Wanneer je paard het gast begrijpen ga je je hulpen steeds verder weglaten en verfijnen.

[@eveliend7234]

@@Begijnhoeve_official vandaag met de tips aan de slag gegaan en ging echt stukken beter!!! Vooral het voorbereidend werk met de stap-galopovergangen hielp echt om meer rust en controle over de wissel te krijgen
