S2 E5 Control and communication - a conversation with Hungarian dressage rider, Krisztina Szucs

Control or communication? It's an interesting question and how we answer it tells us a lot about how we see the world and our relationship with our horse. This week we talk to Hungarian dressage rider Krisztina Szucs, founder of My Way to Dressage. Krisztina started her dressage career as many people do, as a junior, and achieved gold medal success at the national level as a young rider. After a break from horses and riding she found she still wanted to compete, but something had changed. She found herself concerned about some of the common dressage practices and their effect on horse welfare. This concern inspired Krisztina to investigate bit free riding. She is now an ambassador for World Bitless Association, and a campaigner for rule changes to allow bit free riding in dressage competition at all levels. We hope you, like us, find Krisztina's gentle but determined approach to promoting positive change inspiring. “Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much” (H.Keller)
