Beezie Madden: The Difference Between Good Riders and Great Riders

Dressage riders tend to always be riding a little bit with the emergency break on. All you have to do is hop on a polo pony to truly discover how light off the aids a horse should be. In this demo put on by Beezie Madden at the George Morris Horsemastership Program at the Winter Equestrian Festival. Beezie shows us the difference between good riders and great riders when it comes to developing a relationship and listening to the aids.

    Thank you Beezie for showing everyone how riding should be! To communicate with correct aids with lots of feeling and always soft connection!This produces always happy balanced horses and your horse will become your best teampartner:)!

    I realize you wrote this 3 years ago but I appreciate this comment I know am R rated judge who used to do this but would slam into the horses mouth(very sad). I used to do this with my tb she was a very hot horse this helped tune her to my aids. Eventually advanced to canter pirouettes(🥲) You'll see a lot of top show jumpers do this exercise. And yeah it's a shame I feel like jumpers and dressage can learn a lot from each other.

    I'm not sure what I was supposed to be seeing in this video. I saw a young horse that was foaming at the bit and seemed to be wanting something from their rider. I'm not a rider nor have I owned a horse so please forgive my ignorance. Thank you.

    Foaming is natural occurrence when horse is focused and moving athletically under the rider. Horse is rounding its back and carrying his and rider’s weight efficiently

    The horse is fighting her a little The foam. This looks like it's in FL so horses sweat a lot and it does develop into foam if you've ever seen a horse gallop for a long time in a field you know this to be true. Isn't bad he isn't clamping down on the bit because bz remains flexible. This is a great exercise to develop a stop and go which you need in jumpers. Once he does what she asks he immediately knows he did well by her actions. In the begging he's being a little oppositional and partially could be because perhaps he doesn't know what she wants. (idk this horse may have been young at the time) but then what she's saying is because of that response she sets herself up better the next time to be more clearer and set the horse up for success. By the end the horse is doing the exercise nicely. This is a great way to tune them to respond without even jumping. She does a great job of being soft in her aids while still getting the job done.

    Sounds like you need a good deal of equine education, then watch it again. THIS is a great rider.
