Hi Karin, It was a real pleasure to watch Lingh and his performance in the Globe ! Just listen to the audience.
You are lucky to own such a brilliant stallion. I have made a film clip from his performance Sunday.

Dressage demonstrates the moving and profound connection between horse and rider. As the pair appears to dance with lightness and grace, it is as if there is a sharing of one mind and spirit.
How is this accomplished? Each time I get on my horse, I take in a deep breath and, as I am walking, I close my eyes and forget about all the other stuff of the day. My horse is my medium through which I can remember everything that is truly important and then I express it outwardly. I see the dressage movements in my mind’s eye and I compare it to what I see from the top of the horse, as well as in the video I watch after each ride. Then, I make the appropriate adjustments and each day my rides will be closer to perfect. This is what I learned to put into words from Robert Dover.
My riding…has taken years and years to practice. Many years ago, when I was producing “Jumpers-the film” we always looked for “the perfect ride” to film, now years later, Lingh has given me many perfect moments and several perfect rides. It’s a wonderful adventure, looking for perfect with your horse! Watch the video Amazing Lingh on You Tube. Amazing Edward and Lingh and you will see what I mean!
I hope you enjoy reading about dressage and all that its takes to be a top rider. We work every day to improve our riding, our balance and our finesse. We work our horses, helping them to become better athletes, working with the communication of our bodies, on their backs. Enjoy the ride and write to me at info@offieldfarms.com. Don’t worry about your English…I can translate !
