If you view it you’re going to see the six-year-old daughter of Ingrid Klimke (big BIG time dressage star) riding her mother’s dressage schoolmaster.<\/p>\n

Bareback.<\/p>\n

I’ll say the salient points again.<\/p>\n

Six years old. No saddle.<\/p>\n

And if that’s not enough…<\/p>\n

The eagle-eyed cognoscenti will notice that the horse performs and repeats a sequence of one-time tempi changes which is very advanced, high-school dressage movement.<\/p>\n

Just ask anyone who rides.<\/p>\n

So that’s:
\n* Six years old
\n* Bareback
\n* One-time tempi changes
\n* Repeated<\/p>\n

Beeeatch!<\/p>\n

(here’s the link<\/a>)<\/p>\n

For the record, I think the schoolmaster is doing most of the pupil’s work as well as all of his own. But she’s six years old and riding tempi changes bareback FFS!<\/em><\/p>\n
