Hi Karen,
I have been watching your videos with interest. I am a competitive dressage rider, and I have found that at the lower levels it is important to be relaxed, happy and calm (this is probably true for any discipline), but in the upper levels you need 'pizazz' too. On show day, I often find myself 'playing it safe', when I should be 'going for gold'. Do yo have any suggestions as to how one can develop the high performing mentality without going 'over the top'?
