Hope the link works but if not search youtube with the topic title.
Link is an excerpt from a dvd, has anyone purchased the dvd and is it useful? If not opinions on the excerpt welcome
I thought it was fascinating and clever use of the graphics to protect the identity of the rider.

I like that she supports the use of lateral movements over the “deep” position to achieve softness and roundness.

I Like the thoughts I hear.
Unfortunately it would seem that judges like to see a rounder horse before the horse is physically able to achieve that roundness through correct lateral work.

Too bad this wasn’t a requirement for judges’ training.

I attended a presentation with Anja Beran about this exact topic and was very impressed.
she does a clinic in 3 weeks close to me which is always sold out but I put myself on the waiting list and today she told me I got a space!!!
So so excited!!
Considering what’s going on with dressage in the moment I believe she gives a more correct approach.
And this will be my first encounter with “Classical Dressage” although in her presentation she quoted everything from “ Richtlinien für Reiten und Fahren”

Enjoy!! I’m a bit jealous. My trainer is strictly classical and it’s a bit of a learning curve from the usual way most of us were trained. Lighter contact and less driving forward takes getting used to. At times I’ll describe my pony as feeling like a “fluffy balloon” to my trainer, which gets her excited and saying “Yes!! That’s it!!” He’ll become so light and balanced and so responsive; just the tiniest whisper of my thigh results in a leg yield, a slight twist causes a shoulder-in or haunches-in. No stress from him at all, just floating along.

Hope the video uploaded. It’s IMO very typical for her teaching style. She is very accurate and does tons of lateral movements!
