Fab - it is interesting that the horse doen't necessarily want to put his head where the rider would like it to be - more of a high western position perhaps?
It is a lovely film, but I would have thought any skilled dressage rider should be able to do this with their horse (obviously they might not want to), since the whole point is to ride with the seat - or am I being completely naive ? I remember a girl I knew when I was a teenager who often schooled her horse without a bridle, not to the level in the video, but perfectly competently. Being a teenager I didn't think this was particularly unusual at the time.
