Thank you for this. Very excited to learn. As I am starting out in dressage. Only thing is I am British living in Kuwait

I did quest back in 2019 and 2020. It was so much fun! And you’re right, so friendly.

Thank you, really helpful to look through the jargon. I'm honestly no where near doing dressage at the moment but I would never have considered affiliated as its too complicated. You just made it sound a whole lot simpler and a whole lot more inviting. It's something I would consider looking into now. 😊

@RidingWithRhi Ай бұрын

I totally get that feeling. I think Quest is such a good initiative and makes it a whole lot more inviting.

I can't speak to the UK but in the US I've scripted for judges a LOT and it's absolutely true. Partially because the judge has to have to have a higher level of training, partially to encourage lower level competitors.

Thanks Rhi this is really helpful. I want to try BD with my ex racer but I'm abit nervous the atmosphere will get to him and also allifiated seems scary xxx

One step at a time! Lessons> arena hires > clinics > baby comps > BD if you want to do it would be my recommendation.

I don't think I could ever learn a dressage test, I can do showjumping courses with the physical landmarks in the arena but I struggle to remember more than 3-4 movements in lessons without getting lost when setting out an exercise!

You’d be surprised! The letters help a lot and I tend to learn “shapes”. At the lower end of the tests you also find a lot of mirroring (eg if you do a 20 metre circle at E on one rein, you usually do it at B on the other) and you learn other patterns such as … free walk on a long rein tends to happen across a diagonal… and so on. It gets easier the more you do it!
