OMG… For real? OK. Who am I? I am not a dressage rider. I own and show saddlebreds. I’ve shown friesians in saddle seat and hunt seat, taken dressage lessons periodically. I’ve completed in training level and first at unrecognized shows a couple times over the years. I will be the first to say that I’m not 100% enamored of dressage. If my discipline of choice went away, There are probably at least four or five disciplines I would choose before dressage. I’m just not in love with competitive dressage. (though there are parts I like and agree with and find useful, hence my presence reading on the forum).
There’s nothing even close to correct upper level riding/training going on in Mr Peronace’s pics. Not even close. And you don’t get to just claim you’re a grand prix rider/trainer without… well… some proof. You’re claiming to work at a certain level. You can claim to have a college education all you want. But… unless the university hands you a diploma, you can claim all you want… LOL
I’ve ridden a horse who shows one of the intermediare levels and has competed to PSG. Just because I can hit a couple of the buttons doesn’t make me an FEI rider… My first saddlebred could easily school some of the third level canter work. Doesn’t mean she was a third level horse.
I’m definitely not jealous. I would just expect anyone purporting themselves to be a grand prix rider to… well… be a grand prix rider. From the “proof” that Mr Peronace has put out there of himself, he just is not the second coming of Dressage Jesus. He’s just a trick horse trainer who happens to throw a dressage saddle on

Put up or shut up.
Post your real name and pictures.
Peronace is a genius and all of you are jealous!!
It’s one thing to express an opinion and then move on but to keep talking about things with such a passion? Don’t kid yourselves you are all deeply jealous of this man and see him as a threat. You see someone who appears to have fallen out of the sky who has never competed and so you do not understand. Because you do not understand you choose to attack him even after he is answered your questions and said he is willing to work with each and everyone of you. Peronace is willing to stand behind his abilities, scam artist don’t do that, but jealous people will continue to talk and talk…[/QUOTE]
