RollKur or Hyperflexion

It is very refreshing to read your view of hyperflexion, you mentioned that you do not train in the method however you are able comment on the method in what I find, as a rider of the method, a very…

RollKur or Hyperflexion

So with what you learned in the Netherlands, how did they explain you what to do? I had instruction just about every moment I was schooling a horse the entire time I was there. It took me a long get…

RollKur or Hyperflexion

The idea of trying to explain to you via text only what I have learned challenges me. Normally I have either a horse I am riding to show somebody or they have a horse they are riding and can feel wha…

as for the abuse I have suffered nobody punched me out, it was not physical it has mostly all been verbal but verbal abuse can be very destructive. There have been other things to, people cutting of part of one of my horses tail, or putting dead rat…

Jackie, it was refreshing to read your story, thank you for sharing your experiences. Regarding abuse, you may not be sure I was abused, however I am certain I have been abused by others in the sport of dressage because of my style. My point is exa…

Anna Hawke replied to Shimmer E's discussion 'RollKur or Hyperflexion'
I know I have suffered far more abuse than any other person I know who rides dressage because of the system I ride in. My horses have not suffered. Perhaps the abuse I have suffered due to being different has made me a stronger person because of the…

I could not imagine ever wanting to push my beliefs and riding system onto anybody else, all I can fathom is sharing my knowledge with another who is interested ready able and willing to learn; and that I would never push my beliefs on another who d…

. Here is where I am coming from. I trained in Holland with a trainer who spent many years learning from Anky. What I learned there was priceless to me and better than anything I learned in America. It also has nothing to do with the majority of the…

Thank you for your thoughtful commentary. It is a pleasure to read a perspective that is coming from an open and thinking mind. The blend that you discuss is already happening for a number of people but they are not the same people who are throwing…

Anna Hawke replied to Shimmer E's discussion 'RollKur or Hyperflexion'
Furthermore I propose the cry out for compassion of the horse ridden in Rollkur and the accusations of the method being abusive is used as a red herring and that the real problem people have with Rollkur and the reason they have to revolt against it…

Anna Hawke replied to Shimmer E's discussion 'RollKur or Hyperflexion'
The point being in the link I posted above in not to show a bunch of “classically” trained horses with their tongues out or heads behind the vertical (which it does) and say that they are all wrong and should be stopped from riding. My point is not…

You can take a clip of anything and make it look bad, and than start a whole entire movement against it if you build up enough support. The latter Hitler did and it was a sick outcome. To have so much resistance to the placement of where a horses ne…

I suppose this is what people would rather see in the US for dressage, it makes them much more comfortable it is what they like and what they are use to. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://lh5.ggpht.com/DressageInJeans/SHSQo485aHI/AAAAAAA…

I digress from previous posts to say to people who hate and despise “Rollkur”… Face it; Anky is in a class all of her own. So is her system of riding now termed Rollkur and it is her system, not yours. Most people will never, ever, ever understand w…

Riders being threatened indicate there is a problem with the person who is threatening them, not with the rider. When somebody is threatened because of the color of their skin do you think there is a problem with a person who has a different color o…

Taylor replied to Jocelyn's discussion 'Thinking About Starting Dressage'
Hi Jocelyn, I too just started Dressage recently, and I have to say, with a good horse and instructor, Dressage is a blast! So good choice. :) As others have said, we'd need to know what you're doing with your horse now, and past experience to give…

Jackie Cochran replied to Susan Schreyer's discussion 'Edward Gal and Totilas at Aachen'
The late medieval nobility turned dressage into a sport by giving public demonstrations of "horse ballets" to wow the commoners during public celebrations. They would do airs above the ground as well as movements on the ground. The late medieval kni…

Jackie Cochran replied to Hartley's discussion 'Teaching my horse to jump'
There are horses that do not think the little fences are worth worrying about. Are you lungeing him over the jumps just in a cavesson, or are you using side reins too? Do you lunge over jumps with a saddle on? Do not use side reins (I am not saying…

Where did I state that medival dressage was humane and correct? I have stipulated that the SRS under Podhajsky presented dressage more correctly. I know who Kottas is and he is not a horseman! Podhajsky was a horseman and even General Patton was a h…
