Скачать или смотреть Dressage Test Score Breakdown | Second Level Test 1

In this video I go through a dressage test score breakdown for Second Level Test 1, reviewing the judge’s comments and explaining how each movement was scored.

I rode this test at a recent show and decided to sit down and give live commentary while we watch it together. I go movement by movement, share the score I received, read the judge’s comments, and explain what went well — and where I can improve.

Second Level introduces more collection, more precision, and higher expectations for balance, straightness, and engagement. In this breakdown, we talk about:

• Collection vs. medium work
• Transitions within the gait
• Shoulder-in and lateral positioning
• Connection and self-carriage
• Accuracy and geometry
• Where points are commonly lost at Second Level

If you’re schooling Second Level or working your way up through the levels, this kind of real score analysis can help you better understand what judges are actually rewarding — and what they’re marking down.

I’m documenting my progression through the levels and sharing the honest feedback that helps me train smarter. If you enjoy detailed dressage ride reviews and judge score breakdowns, make sure to subscribe.
