Produced by Sharon Shinwell, co author of the book 'Ride With Confidence'. Specifically designed to overcome the anxieties and tension associated with producing a good dressage test when it matters most - in the competition arena in front of the judge!
Reproducing that supple, responsive, energetic performance you know you can achieve at home can be so difficult when you are in dressage competition environment.
As you enter at “A” your mind can goes blank, your body tenses up, you forget to breathe and you feel out of control. Dressage itself makes great demands on the rider to stay calm, relaxed, and focused whilst concentrating on sometimes complex patterns, movements and changes of pace; so much so that even taking a breath gets forgotten!
