Movie Reviews of Horses of the World
Movie Review: Excellent overview on classical horse training
Summary: 5 Stars
First, what this video is not: It isn't riding instruction or horse breeds. You can buy a kid's video on horse breeds for about $10 that we used in our summer camps. What this video IS: this one's for the horse enthusiast. Our classical riding based on the Spanish Riding School, aka dressage is covered beautifully. They show the training of the horses, the riders and how both together create the dance we call classical riding. My friend bought a 4 video set at a garage sale which is how I first saw this. If you're an adult seriously into horses, this is great, and if you're buying for a child, it's best if they're actually taking lessons or super horse crazy. All in all it's a beautifully done video, and if you learn by watching, you can pick up a few tips as well.
