Jackie;

Thank you for the kind words.

I tried to write an article that gave clarification to a huge problem that exists in dressage schooling and in competition.  I hope that it may play a small role in changing perspectives so that the horses will benefit.

I really liked your article, especially your description of the bad effects of the over-flexion of the head/neck.

Too bad there is too much money in the improper competition dressage.  Too bad all the judges seem to think that modern competition dressage is correct dressage.  They train their eyes to reward incorrect riding and training.  So sad.
