Dressage to Music

My sister Liz practising to my music in the arena at home with 'Dancer'
I adapted some of my dance music for a dressage test to music.
Liz & Dancer really got into the beat.
There are three types of music, one for walk, trot and canter.
So I used different beats to the various gaits.
It was great fun to make this, I had to watch a video of Dancer in his movement's
and plan the timings of the dressage test to correspond with the music for each action.
Then it is up to the rider to be in the right place at the right time.
'Which is not an easy task as you can see in this practise video'
but beautiful to watch when horse and rider are 'working together'.
