With the help of Darna doing the camera work, finally got around to filming my level 1 assessment with Whinney. Bar a little hiccup with my backup from trot (she was ahead and to the side of me all the way on the first attempt leaving me looking very silly waving my arms around like a chicken!) all seems to go well.

Anyway decided not to do a second take and instead see what the examiners think of the audition...

I think it is an easy pass and you have nothing to worry about.
The best bit is the bum scratching around 5min15sec!!!!!
It shouldn't be long and the level 2 online audition should be joining this one!
Love you!

Definitely a pass! Great lateral flexion and drive/draw. I loved the oops bit! Well done.

Gareth-
Thank you very much for your level 1 On line audition. The assessment team
has viewed your audition and it was a pleasure. We appreciate the
opportunity to be a part of your horsemanship journey.

You have a great relationship started with your horse! You have great draw, now start to see if you can balance it out with your drive. One thing that will really help to get your Level 2 On line is to help your horse understand his responsibilities.

Let me be the first to congratulate you on receiving a Level 1 ++! You should receive you certificate and string with in 4-8 weeks. :-)


Thanks again for your dedication to your horse and to the Parelli
program. We look forward to viewing your future success. Have fun
and keep it natural!
