Freestylin'

Finally the star were aligned and I had the music, floorplan, school free, video-er primed (but on a limited time slot :lachen001: ) ready to have our first go at putting it all together.

Disclaimer for the dressage police :lachen001: :
Time was short, so I had to crack on with a bare minimum warm up in walk 
Some of it was winging it a little to fit the final cut of the music, especially the final trot bit
Rider's position and horse's frame are both under close enough critical scrutiny, so I am more than aware heels need to be down in the trot work and positioning for the leg yields need to be clearer/better :biggrin: Free walk needs to be 'free-er' tansitions need to be clearer, mediums better prepared, infact the whole thing will need to be more uphill and energetic, probably also need to find a way to get rid of the bag of cats hibernating inside my jumper!!! :rolleyes: 


Having said all that, I am chuffed to bits with how it is taking shape.
Sure the music will divide the judges, but it make me smile...a LOT,so that is the main thing :biggrin:
Really looking forward to giving it a go in public and seeing how it is received :dunno: 
We qualified for regionals first time out with our novice and I think this is hugely better than that attempt!!! So fingers crossed someone else thinks it is good enough:thumbs: 

Elementary Freestyle first run through

Onwards Wonderpony :sloppy:
