They are a string quartet but they play songs you will probably recognize. So if you have instructors who won’t let you get away with doing freestyle to the regular Lady Gaga songs…check out the vitamin string quartet versions. They are awesome. I really want to do a free style to “Dani California” or “Don’t Stop Believing” <br />With my old horse I had always wanted to do a freestyle to Mellow Yellow, because…well that was his nickname. How cute would it have been to have a palomino doing freestyle to that song? My riding instructor thinks I should do one as a tribue to him.

It's The Safety Dance!! With a little bit of Coldplay's Viva La Vida (even better).Dressagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04849960430806754249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3004597800120575437.post-18660662535056335122010-11-28T08:11:50.140-06:002010-11-28T08:11:50.140-06:00Cool video.

If I was a dressage rider I always thought it'd be cool to do a freestyle to this DJ Dan song:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwcXHujIU5cAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3004597800120575437.post-15904241659643867542010-11-27T23:39:12.356-06:002010-11-27T23:39:12.356-06:00me indie's second level freestyle is going to ...me indie's second level freestyle is going to be jimmy buffet themed <br />trot is going to be "take it back" which is by far my favorite part XD<br /><br />i've always wanted to do a musical ride to some Ke$ha and 3Oh!3 where the riders and horses have crazy body paint and like teased hair and stuff where there are like 8 horses all in the arena with awesome light show stuff, i think it would get younger people more interested in dressage if it was a little more out thereMeridethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12265481044358677892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3004597800120575437.post-59591065396691207162010-11-27T22:25:00.781-06:002010-11-27T22:25:00.781-06:00YES to GAGA! And that would be a good idea to use ...YES to GAGA! And that would be a good idea to use that to work on rhythm. I'm thinking Bad Romance would be great to use. There's a really cool remix done by Starsmith that has a nice consistent rhythm with sections of variation over that consistent beat. It would be really good to work on precision as well as rhythm because of that. And it's REALLY catchy :)Dressagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04849960430806754249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3004597800120575437.post-32807936658749227652010-11-26T10:30:57.643-06:002010-11-26T10:30:57.643-06:00I really, really want to the a freestyle with Sofi...I really, really want to the a freestyle with Sofie to "So What" by Pink. That song is so...her. Of course this is all dependent on her ever being sound/trained enough to do at least a Training Level freestyle, but it is fun to imagine the possibilities.<br /><br />And I also have an upper level freestyle fully choreographed in my head to "Telephone" by Lady Gaga. Someone needs to ride to Gaga!! Seriously, enough of this super sophisticated classical stuff. Have some FUN, dressage people!!!<br /><br />And I like your Bollywood idea, too. That'd be neat.Meghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01295839865379604318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3004597800120575437.post-58884428935139590712010-11-26T06:07:41.597-06:002010-11-26T06:07:41.597-06:00I think Lady Ga Ga would be fun (some nice strong ...I think Lady Ga Ga would be fun (some nice strong rhythms and upbeat tone), but I'm not sure my teacher Joan would agree (she's all for classical music) :)<br />I may start riding to it this winter just to work on rhythm.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17207626703988850059noreply@blogger.com
