Dressage DVDs

[canadiandressagediva]

I'm currently in the process of attempting to broaden my Dressage/Trainer DVD library. I take lessons regularly from a couple different Dressage Coaches, but want to work on learning more theory to be able to get more out of my lessons. Who are some of your favorite trainers? Which specific DVDs have you found most helpful?
Thanks for your suggestions!! :D

Well, of the ones I have I didn't find any to be such that I would say "You must see it."
They just seem to cover what I've got in lessons, although usually I do get one or two snippets that make it worth the price of a lesson that I can watch again. And the bonus of being able to watch at your convenience.
I don't have Jane Savoie's dvds but I saw some clips of clinics (?) and think she'd be good. I saw her at an expo nd I read some of her books, so I have triedsome of her ideas.
But I have only bought $30 DVDs for the most part. I got more out of my cross country DVDs.
It's always fun to see a different perspective, but I did get one DVD that sounded real comprehensive,and was, but the rider/instructor got on my nerves w/her riding style. Her horse went ok but her chair seat was annoying and I would rather watch someone I would like to ride like, like the Klimkes. I have two of those DVDs and like watching but there's not a lot of detailed info like in say Kyra Kyrkland's.
Conrad Shumacher has some good ones.
Leslie Webb's Patterns are good but again, most have stuff we are already aware of, but there's always something you can find that may be new to you. Hers pretty much show the patterns and not any of the ones I get are about theory, although Kyra's first one says it inclides some theory, I think.

I love dvd's, I have a little portable player for the tack room and watch while I clean tack.

There are some that I watch again and again and gain from each viewing:

USDF National Symphosium by Conrad Schumaker
The schooling a horse series by Rudolph Zellinger
And Kyra Kyrklunds - esp vol 6
