    Riding with the Minnesota Icelandic Drill Team
    IceLandic Video
    featuring Liz Graves

    A great Video set for the American pleasure rider of the Icelandic Horse and a valuabletool containing information applicable for riders of all the gaited breeds.

    Here is a great Video set for the American pleasure rider of the Icelandic Horse! This is also a valuable tool containing information applicable for riders of all the gaited breeds.This is a recording on video of the Icelandic Horse Gathering clinic with gaited horse expert, Elizabeth Graves. This clinic was held in California.
    If you are into natural horsemanship and finding a true partnership with your Icelandic horse, you will enjoy and thoroughly appreciate the contents if this VHS set.

    To be clear : This is the VHS, the movie of the clinic. The CD is a slide-show presentation of the clinic along with many pictures of the Icelandic Horses-- it's eye candy for the Icelandic Horse fan to be sure.

    At the gathering, Liz introduces the concept of the "Saddle Tolt" gait, which is a slow version of the tolt. It consists of an alternating two -hoof, three hoof support sequence instead of the one-hoof, two hoof support of the true tolt. This version of the Icelandic's smooth saddle gait is much easier on the horse ( because one leg does not bear the full weight of the horse and rider) and is used by many American Pleasure riders who find their horses perform and prefer it.

    Liz maps out key conformational points on several horses during the clinic.

    This VHS set is a non-professional product; recording and editing being done thru Paso Robles High School A/V class. The reproduction is professional done by DCA Duplication. There are more than five and a half hours of tape on three VHS tapes which are  $65.00 plus $5.50 shipping within USA, additional cost for international shipping will be applied.
