Okay so I'm wondering if it's possible to make your way to the top of dressage, as in get to Grand Prix, if you aren't on any of the pony teams and squads etc. My parents aren't interested in horses and are scared of them, however I loan a pony with a yard owner who is very knowledgeable and teaches me everyweek. She competes advanced medium regional level and is training her horses to passage/piaffe etc.
I've competed I unaff. Before up to elementary level, working some medium movements at home. I'm still in my early teens and so like to think it might be possible to get to Grand Prix?!
I've never had a flashy horse etc, but think it's something that would be simply a dream. I know everyone would love to ride their ponies for a job, but it's just not always possible.
Also, is there anyway of not spending hundreds of thousands to buy the Grand Prix horse in the first place, as in buying a younger horse who doesn't know all the tricks etc that I could train?
Thanks for any replies in advance.
