That would depend on the size of the horse, shoeing, shoulder formation, breed, and many other factors of this sort
She has a LOT of horses and most of them are dressage.
The point of dressage is to test the behaviour of the horse. Many well trained dressage horses will/can get higher points in shows. Dressage is a very, very hard sport. Both horse and rider must coperate with each other. Look up Anky Van Grunsven in Google or Yahoo.
Well you know you can use pretty much any breed of horse whenever you are dancing horses or doing Dressage (Dressage is the same things as dancing horses.) But Arabians are probobly the best at it. Any breed of horse can be trained to do dressage. The lower levels of dressage are not so much dancing as much as a predetermined pattern of circles and straight lines, and transitions of the 3 different gaits of the horse. In the higher levels of dressage, like the ones you see in the Olympics that really do look like they are dancing, the majority of these horses are warmbloods imported from Germany, Sweden, The Netherlands, etc. like the Hanovarian, Holsteiner, Trakhner, Westfalen, Swedish Warmblood, Dutch Warmblood, etc. A lot of the times these horses are crossed with Thoroughbreds or other breeds. Also, the Lippizaner stallions are famous for their world renowned show called the Dancing horses, which are some beautiful maneuvers that originated from when horses were used during battle years and years ago.
There is no real correct answer to this question because many kinds of horses jump and do dressage and do it well. The dressage and hunter community seem to lean toward the warmbloods and jumpers and eventers tend to lean toward thoroughbred type horses. That is more for upper level though. At lower levels, as long as the horse is built for it, has good comformation, no lameness issues and has a good head, they can jump and do dressage no matter what the breed.
13.4 feet average length over 100meters sprint.
Their are 18 competitive levels in dressage
No, you don't have to. In fact many hunt bred horses go on to be amazing athletes in other sports such as jumping , dressage, and eventing.
depends how long YOUR strides are
it depends on the length of there mane but its lot!
They can. I've seen them do hunt seat, saddle seat, hunters, jumpers, western pleasure. It's always nice to see horses that wear many hats.

when i do pole exercises with my horse i normally stride out some canter poles (usually about 5 horse canter strides) and see how many canter strides i can fit in so my horse has to shorten and lengthen , this is good to get the horse listening to your aid and they enjoy it more too :) another one is where you can have poles on a circle and see how many strides you can fit between them and so on! theres loads tbh hope i helped :)
