Session number 14 collected trot & passage beginning.

No cobmanship allowed.

CobmanIANship on the other hand is perfectly acceptable.

As is Welsharianism, Fellfallory, Connemaranarmoury, Clydesdalerwalery and Shetlandeffery :smile3:

Is there a term for those of us who practice the barsteward lovechild of 2 of the above mentioned disciplines? I'd put myself forward as a sample Dumbloodium x cobmanian but it might offend you all too much.

Hahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

I'm afraid my only suggestion is NOT U rated :)

In fact....I think I have actually managed to disturb myself with it!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Why the rush.put the basics in correctly and it will all come easily. This poor horse will have brain fry before long
 
Also, I don't think there is anything wrong in her riding or style. It's just her method that is wrong. Her way of riding is prob very effective on a warm blood who in general respond to the come here, get on the aids and do as I say method, but maybe its just not suited to this breed. He has also lost quite a lot if condition.

Tut tut, another one here who just doesn't understand the breed. You may also need to scan in your certificates before you comment. ;)









(I do have a sense of humour and this IS tongue in cheek)

And she is changing her riding style as she goes along. I too don't think she is that well suited, but I won't let that take away from the fact that he is working in a better frame most of the time now, he is using himself more and he is more relaxed in general. I have good and bad things to say about this trainer. She's being given a chance so let's see where she gets.

Re the condition...I think there are several factors, so it will be interesting to see him over the coming weeks.
 
Whoops I appear to have been deleted from the Armas Facebook page, but never mind 'oh wise one' :) Could you be anymore of a suck up? :)

I am fully certified! Rest assured. Still think her style is more suited to the warmbloods of the world, when I watched the vid of her on the warmbloods she looked totally different, far more at home. I don't have an issue with her riding, just her style for this type of horse.

I've seen these threads sporadically and dipped in and out of reading them - so caveats galore: i.e I've not read/ watched everything. To me the horse looks slightly more settled in way of going compared to earlier one I watched. Still too sticky, snatchy and stop-start for my liking though. He seems like a clever chappie and his owner seems to have his best interests at heart. Rome wasn't built in a day, and other such cliches. My two pence: go for some lovely long summer hacks and try to make sure you enjoy each other :-). Why not get some lessons together so that you progress as a unit? (Apologies if arguments for/against anything I've posted have already been debated!).
 
I am certificate-less too....certificates mean jack you know what.

Sjef Janssen has certificates but I think he's a you know what!!!

Non certificated people well and truly allowed I think.
 
Had to wait all day in order to have time to watch.
Not sure what I have to add to the bun fight I have been away so not seen the last few sessions.
It interesting to watch a whole work session that's not set up for a DVD so Thankyou for posting James .
I saw stuff I liked and stuff I liked less if I have any thing from it it's the importance of not getting the basics wrong in the first place and that is do with the work Armas did a long time ago.
I look forward to the next one.
 
There really is some horrific doo dah There really is some horrific doo dah posted on this thread by wannabe know it posted on this thread by wannabe know it all teenage riders. Urgh. all teenage riders. Urgh.
True, PITA posts worth putting up with for the good stuff though :

I removed you from the page because of your previous comments, which as pointed out were rude and personal.
 
i cant believe the way this thread has gone... its not exactly worthy of this - att worst its a bit of over ambitious riding /training and i dont know many people who havent tried to run begore they can work?

if you read whats been written youd think hed bern chopping the legs off his horse and feedingthem to a dog ...
