The Effective Dressage Rider

[@yvonnekiwior9633]

I'm Very new to this world, riding a lesson horse for a year now and love every moment but truly one or two days a week feels like not enough to learn so much. Therefore, this has been awesome to watch and listen, you are truly wonderful Amelia! Thank-you so much, I look forward to more of your channel!🇨🇦❤️

It’s important to remember that when you were training your horse to go from a light leg aid and your horse does not surge forward from behind and you give a bump bump with the legs for a stronger aid and get the surge forward of energy that you were looking for, you need to go back to what you were originally doing and ask for the light aid again and see if you can get the correct surge forward from the light leg aid and if you don’t you need to make the correction again and then retest with the light aid again. If not your horse is going to only react or go forward with “more “ from your correction or stronger Aid. Give the light aid, not the correct reaction, give the bump bump correction with your legs and then bring the horse back to what you were originally doing and retest with the light aid.

Thank you so much Amelia for what you do to help us, amateur dressage riders. I would love to enroll in your course to understand the scale of dressage training. As many riders, I have to work on my own so, although I have some experience with training, I really feel I lack the knowledge to effectively plan my schedule. Like most of us, I must work harder on my physical condition and I do my own exercises but there must be so many others I'm sure would help! So now I know I must save money enroll in your course! 🙂 Good luck with Harvey in Chicago! Catherine from Carpentras, France.

Hi Amelia. Thanks for your passion in sharing your expertise with us as amateur dressage riders. I love your videos and enjoyed this lecture very much. Such a great idea to make a poster of the Dressage training scales to help remember and connect with all of the elements. I’d love to enrol in your corse but live in Australia so time Zones probably make it too hard to participate in Zoom calls. Any ideas for how I could participate? Cheers Barb.

[@AmeliaNewcombDressage]

Hi Barb!! The course is all recorded so You can participate even in a different time zone!

You can also really test yourself and see how much you are really using your legs and test your horse and see how much he is taking responsibility for going along in the gaits. You can start off in A good walk and then take your legs away and even slightly off your Horses sides A little bit and count how long it takes for them to slow down and/or even come to a halt. That will really show you how much you are using your legs to keep your horse going without even realizing it.

Amelia, these video are so informative! But I have a suggestion, maybe you should start a podcast. Because I find I enjoy listening to them more then I do watching it. ;)

[@AmeliaNewcombDressage]

Good idea!! If only I had more time!! You could Just listen on you tube!!

hola Amelia. una consulta, tus cursos tienen subtítulos?, porque para sacar el mayor provecho, necesito entender todo y sin subtítulos, me es difícil. Saludos,

[@hannahlcollins4514]

Hi Amelia. Love your video's! You've fast become my favourite most respected online dressage coach. Always informative and a genuinely lovely person. Thanks for taking the time to put these together. I have a non riding question for you! It's a little silly and personal So I hope you don't mind ... But do you by any chance wear false eyelashes? I've noticed that your lashes always look so nice lol and I'm curious to see if you do wear them... Do they stay on while riding on those hot and humid days where everything gets soaked in sweat lol. It's always hard to stay well presented when busy and dealing with horses all day so I'm really interested to know!!

Is the rolliker banned from the Dressage arena? (Rolliker = the horse's head not perpendicular but pulled back, & doing nerve damage to a certain vertebrae to the neck?)

[@kellywatts1443]

Do you work with people who have tennessee walking horses for dressage?

[@lizzie9173]

Thanks soooo much !

[@amelialaidlaw8142]

[@AmeliaNewcombDressage]

I started riding at age 60, and I’m not athletically talented. Guess I’ll stick to the natural horsemanship/trail rider route. ; )

[@AmeliaNewcombDressage]

Riding is a lifelong sport, and the best thing about it is that you can do it at any age :)
