This area of Provence, France, is the opening beautiful cinematography here, and riding a dream of a horse in a romantic land is just the beginning.

Philippe works his Lusitano stallion in the double bridle, he covers how to hold the reins according to the French School, and fully explains the reasons for these methods. There is some very good info on training the flying changes and full use of the previous lateral exercises is well explained and demonstrated.

Through the jumping portion Philippe has his Oldenburg stallion jumping on the longe line, and later show shis Lusitano jumping under saddle. The lesson in bascule for the horse, to stretch the back and to add to the gymnastic ability of the horse as well as keep the horse fresh are well illustrated, and Philippe works in a quiet and positive manner throughout with soft admonishments when needed. His perfect French accent is easy to listen to, adding an additional romantic air to the DVD. There are some very interesting 'Baucher' points and theories demonstrated here, very educational. Recommended. Especially enjoyed the intro work of the canter, and the timing thereof i.e. after lateral trot work under saddle, and the canter departures and leads and gymnastic dressage exercises and their use to enhance the horse in suppleness and understanding are explained well.
