Amelia, your videos are awesome. As someone who is naturally analytical, the granularity of your explanations down to exactly which parts of the body are needed for aids is tremendously helpful. Love your lessons. Happy riding!

The square has been an incredibly valuable exercise for myself and my lease horse. Sometimes he convinces me that he needs a lot more leg than he really does, and this helps me feel how well he's responding. It helps sharpen both of us up, and gets him thinking about sitting on his haunches more. It really improves the quality of his canter as well. I love the square.

Thanks Amelia. Great reminder for the concept" turn the shoulder" and " turn the saddle".

Thank you so much for this! I compete on the western dressage circuit and this is more so a tendency because our horses carry their heads lower. This is excellent advice that I plan on putting to use immediately! Thank you again!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Looking again this video and i love it , thank you so so much! So well explained!! As we cant do many circles now, left hind a bit weak now, wonder if those turns are less demanding biomecanic wise, versus a circle. If so i will do this exercise for a while till i introduce more and mroe circles :) Thank you so so much!!!

Really interesting, thank you. What are you doing with the inside leg during the turn? I thought we were to initiate the turn with the inside leg. Or do we actually initiate with the outside upper leg and outside rein. And tip the nose a bit with the inside rein? Appreciate it

Inside leg helps to move the rib cage over!

What can i do with my horse when i ask for flexion but he ends up turning completely. Appreciate it
@AmeliaNewcombDressage7 ай бұрын
Great question! Try asking with a smaller aid and make sure you're keeping your outside rein steady.

@@AmeliaNewcombDressage Thank you so much. But when i even put the slightest pressure on the reins. He just moves completely over

Is the rein on the outside shoulder pushing the horse to the direction were turning or is it only closing the hand ?
@AmeliaNewcombDressage7 ай бұрын
A bit of both!

Hmm, very interesting Amelia. Thanks for sharing....yes, like others have said, great audio/video production, and helpful information and techniques. Well done.

So basically, these turns are a combination that f leg yield with neck reining?

What I find is helpful for me is “look and turn”. I know you can’t exaggerate the looking part in dressage, but it’ll help others in the beginning.
@joannesimpson14907 ай бұрын
How do you keep inside bend when turning with your outside aids? My horse stops bending his ribcage round my inside leg when I turn with my outside aids and then he just turns like a plank of wood. Also what saddle are you riding in? It's beautiful!
@AmeliaNewcombDressage7 ай бұрын
Practice circles and bending lines to help with this! I ride in Custom Saddlery saddles

Can you please explain what you mean by close the rein? That's not a phrase I've come across before. Maybe I know it under a different term?
