haha yeah. I've had him for almost two years now and he's really starting to get the collection and everything for the upper levels so it's exciting. He's the first young horse I've trained up the levels and it's been fun.
Thanks! Cool. Yeah, I made it to Nationals last year with another horse but I missed out on the team by .2%! Oh, well...haha
So this year I'm trying with my young horse and hopefully we'll be ready to compete.
That's awesome! Yeah, that would be so cool if we met each other!
Yes really looking forward to it now, if a little bit nervous!It will be very strange not to have my own horse there!!I had wanted to do a course for maybe a week or so, in order to improve my riding skills rather than just ending up doing a horsey holiday as such, and found it very difficult to find something suitable. I did lots of google searches, and in particular in relation to Germany as I think their schooling methods and training seems to be the best!!After a lot of searching I found Alex Wortmanns site & I e-mailed him to see where he was running the courses!He sounds very impressive!!Looking forward to learning lots!
I see that you went to Talland too...I did look into going there but to be honest I think the course in Vechta offers a lot more in terms of value for money, but I will hopefully try Talland at some stage too!!
How did you find your school horse in vechta?
Thanks for all of your help with the tack shops!!Looking forward to the shopping too,we have such a bad selection in Ireland in terms of boots-really bad selction of sizes, so everything needs to be ordered in & the prices are crazy!!
Not staying at hotel unfortunately, I think only one person is staying there!!Though i'm sure we'll be there for a drink or two!!
I would post your blogs right there in the discussions section, because they are quite interesting and you will be posting directly to dressage people. You could also ask questions and advice. I have done that and have gotten some very good advice.
You could also add the blog to the regular blog area because members have been following your travels. p.s. Too bad about your latest experience!
Yes you should definitely join. Especially because there was a really interesting bit of news posted there today regarding the Australian dressage team. The politics sounded so complicated, it would be great if an Australian explained them!!
Just read your latest blog. You have a super writing style! Are you a member of the Eurodressage group? I'm sure everyone in that group would be interested if you added your blogs as discussions there. I look forward to reading more as things progress!

Mine is a 5 year old, 16 H Trakheiner gelding that I recently imported from Holland. He is super sweet and amazing learner. We are doing 1st level mostly with some second level schooling plus I recently started to school change with him.
