#USDF

[griffinequestrian]

Exhausted but very proud of this dude for his return to rated competition. We learned a few things and know there’s plenty to work on, but we earned some respectable scores toward our Bronze medal and even some qualifying USDF Regionals scores. Onward!

[freddie-dressage]

Oh I got my bronze medal lmao. Got so side tracked after the rated show that I never really fully wrote about it. We got one qualifying score which was the last score I needed for my bronze. I have the little lapel pin now too.

Anyone else with usdf medals- did you get any kind of certificate after applying and having it go through? I could've sworn I saw some people with like a proper paper for it? I didn't see it mentioned on the usdf site so maybe I'm crazy 😅

We had bit drama this year with the whole USDF baucher thing, but we also had girth drama this year, ugh.

It started early this year when I FINALLY got my hands on a County dressage saddle that fits both Sydney and I perfectly. The problem was that my girth from my previous County was oddly too long. Granted, the old County was on a WXW tree and Sydney really only needs a W tree, so I don’t know if that was the difference, or if it was the fact that the old County was a 2009 and this County is/was a 2021 that was being passed around as a demo. Anyway, long story short, I bought a new girth. I treated myself to a girth I had been wanting for a while, a Lemieux Gel-Tek, which is modeled after the ProLite and Fairfax girths (LeMieux is actually rather notorious for knocking off famous brands for cheaper). I had had one in brown for my string of ill fated and ill fitting brown dressage saddles, and had really liked it. This one, however, appeared to be a dud. Every time I used it, it dyed Sydney black. I reached out to the company and they told me to just condition it, and that it would eventually stop. Well, I didn’t want to wait for to eventually stop, not when it was leaching who knows what kind of chemicals on to my horse’s skin on an almost daily basis, and she already has a type of cancer and a couple of sarcoids to boot.

I bought a Professional Choice Ventech girth, but this time with fleece, I say this time with fleece because the girth I used for my old County was the exact same girth, just a 32 inch, and with neoprene. Something about it being shorter just made it not sit right on her though, but I held on to it because I knew in my head that we had been using this brand and style of YEARS without issue. We will come back to this thought in a minute.

Next up on the try list was a WOW brand H-girth. I did some pretty extensive research about these girths, and how they were well suited to horses with Sydney’s conformation: big belly, forward girth groove, saddle needs to be kept back despite gravity saying it should go forward. The only thing I kept seeing was that these girths were more meant for the WOW saddles, which all come equipped with a point billet, which I mean, makes sense considering they are made by WOW. My saddle does not have a point billet, both billets come straight down off the tree, which works much better for Sydney because the saddle isn’t being pulled forward into her shoulder. One of the other riders at the barn has one of these girths, so I got to try it for a couple of rides, and then further internet sleuthing assured me that there are people that use them on saddles without a point billet.

Did it work? Sorta… Was it ideal? Not really. The straps kind of angled back towards each other because of how my billets are. Even though WOW says these can be used on saddles without a point billet, the spacing makes it really hard. We used this most of the summer until I started to notice that she was getting some rubs between the straps as her winter coat was coming in. This to me indicated that she was likely getting rubbed all the time, it was just now her coat was long enough to make it obvious.

So, I swapped her to the Professional Choice Ventech girth, and she promptly got a girth gall. I was MORTIFIED. I have never felt so horrible. Thankfully, I wasn’t on some 5 hour long trail ride, or anything like that. She got a week off for it to heal, then swapped back to the WOW girth while trainer and I pondered what to do. We didn’t really come up with any solutions other than to keep riding in the WOW girth for the time being while I scoured the internet for information.

This past week the saddle fitter came out, and I grilled her for solutions. Side note, OMG did getting my saddle flocked make a huge difference. I could feel it sitting differently with more wool in there. I wish I had been a little more insistent on her coming out sooner. I can also now toss the fluffy half pad and go back to my ProLite half pad, which feels so much nicer under my butt.

Fitters suggestion was the Total Saddle Fit StretchTec girth. It’s an interesting design, meant to be anatomical as well as move with the horse as their body expands and contracts during different points of a ride. I didn’t really want to spend full price on yet ANOTHER girth this year (are we keeping count?), but thankfully there are a ton of these available used (which may or may not be concerning), it was just a matter of finding the right size and color at a price I was willing to pay. This ended up giving me my first experience with buying from the TackTack app. Everything went smoothly, and I ended up with a basically new girth for a song.

I had my first ride in it today, and so far it seems to tick all of the boxes. No rubs, allows the billets to hang straight down, and fits her well. Time will tell if this ends up being our ultimate winner. I am crossing my fingers because I have no idea where I would go next.

The Ultimate Guide to Horse Lessons for New Riders

Whether you're dreaming of galloping across fields, learning dressage, or simply spending time with horses, horseback riding can be a fulfilling and enriching experience. But for new riders, starting with the right lessons and understanding what to expect is key to making the journey safe, enjoyable, and rewarding. In this ultimate guide, we will take you through everything you need to know about horse lessons for beginners, from selecting the right riding school to mastering the basics of riding and beyond.

Understanding the Basics of Horseback Riding

Before diving into the lessons themselves, it's important to understand what horseback riding entails. Horseback riding is not just about sitting on a horse and riding—it’s about building a partnership with the animal, developing your riding skills, and gaining confidence in the saddle. Riders must learn how to balance, steer, and communicate with the horse, which can take time and practice.

There are several disciplines of horseback riding, but as a new rider, you’ll likely start with basic Western or English riding styles. Western riding is associated with cowboys and cowgirls and tends to be more relaxed. English riding, on the other hand, is more formal and is the style used in Olympic disciplines like show jumping and dressage. Depending on your goals, the type of lessons you take will differ.

Choosing the Right Riding School or Instructor

One of the most important steps when getting started in horseback riding is finding a good riding school or instructor. The right facility and instructor can make a huge difference in how quickly and safely you progress.

Here are some factors to consider when choosing a riding school or instructor:

Credentials and Experience: Ensure that the instructor has experience working with beginners. Instructors should be certified by recognized organizations like the Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA) or United States Dressage Federation (USDF), which ensure high teaching standards.

Reputation: Read reviews and get recommendations from other riders to gauge the reputation of the riding school. A school with a good reputation will prioritize safety, teach proper techniques, and have experienced staff.

Facilities: Visit the riding school to check out their facilities. Ensure that the horses are well-kept, the arenas are safe, and the equipment is in good condition.

Location and Schedule: Choose a school that is convenient and fits with your schedule. Consistent practice is key to improving, so make sure the riding school offers flexible lesson times.

What to Expect in Your First Lesson

Your first riding lesson can be both exciting and intimidating, but don’t worry! You’ll start with the basics, and your instructor will guide you every step of the way. Here's what you can expect:

Introduction to the Horse: In your first lesson, you’ll meet your horse. Your instructor will introduce you to your horse’s personality and teach you how to approach, lead, and care for the horse safely.

Tacking Up: Your instructor will teach you how to saddle and bridle the horse, an essential skill for every rider. You'll also learn how to check the saddle fit and make sure everything is secure.

Mounting: Getting on the horse is one of the first tasks new riders face. Your instructor will guide you through the process and ensure that you mount safely. You’ll learn how to position your body properly when mounting and dismounting.

Basic Riding Skills: Once you’re on the horse, your instructor will teach you how to sit in the saddle correctly. Proper posture is essential, so you’ll learn how to maintain a balanced, centered position. Your instructor will teach you how to hold the reins, control the horse’s speed, and use your legs for steering.

Building Confidence and Safety

Safety is paramount in horseback riding, and it’s essential to build confidence gradually. New riders often feel nervous, but that’s entirely normal. As you progress through your lessons, your instructor will help you become comfortable with the horse and teach you how to stay safe.

Here are some safety tips for beginners:

Wear Proper Gear: Always wear a certified helmet, appropriate footwear (sturdy, heeled boots), and comfortable clothing. Riding boots help you maintain control over your horse and protect your feet. Wear pants or riding breeches to ensure comfort while in the saddle.

Understand Horse Behavior: Horses are large animals, and it’s important to understand their body language. Your instructor will teach you how to read a horse’s cues, which will help you avoid frightening or startling the animal.

Start Slow: Your first few lessons will likely focus on basic skills like walking the horse and learning to control it at a low speed. Don’t rush into trotting or cantering until you’ve mastered the basics and feel comfortable doing so.

Relax and Breathe: Horses can sense your emotions, so it’s important to stay calm. Focus on breathing deeply, relaxing your body, and staying in tune with the horse. Tension in your body can make the horse uneasy, and it can be harder for you to stay balanced.

Mastering the Basics: Walking, Trotting, and Cantering

As a beginner, you’ll focus on mastering three main gaits—walking, trotting, and cantering. Each gait has its own rhythm and demands different skills from the rider.

Walking: The walk is the slowest and easiest gait. It’s a four-beat movement, and the horse moves at a steady pace. The key to riding at a walk is maintaining balance, sitting up straight, and holding the reins correctly.

Trotting: The trot is a two-beat diagonal gait. The rider will feel a bouncing motion as the horse moves. To keep your seat steady, you’ll learn how to "post," which means rising out of the saddle with each diagonal movement of the horse’s legs. Trotting is more energetic than walking, but it is still a manageable pace for most beginners.

Cantering: Once you’re comfortable with trotting, your instructor will introduce you to the canter, a three-beat gait. The canter feels more like a rocking motion, and it’s important to stay balanced and relaxed. While this is faster than the trot, it is still a controlled gait that you’ll work up to once you’re confident.

Riding Etiquette and Horse Care

Horseback riding is not just about riding the horse—it’s also about building a respectful relationship with the animal. Learning proper horse care and riding etiquette is essential for any new rider.

Respecting the Horse: Horses are sensitive animals, and they respond to your cues. Be gentle when handling your horse, whether you're grooming, leading, or riding. Always approach the horse from the front and speak softly to reassure them.

Grooming: You’ll learn how to groom your horse before and after riding. Grooming helps strengthen the bond between rider and horse and ensures the horse’s comfort and hygiene.

Tacking Up and Untacking: As part of your lessons, you'll be taught how to saddle, bridle, and care for the tack. After your ride, you'll learn how to untack and cool down your horse.

Cleanliness: Keeping your riding area, tack, and horse clean is essential for both the horse’s health and your own safety. Properly cleaned tack and equipment help prevent injuries and ensure the longevity of your gear.

Advancing Your Riding Skills

Once you’ve gained confidence and mastered the basic gaits, you can start to explore more advanced riding skills and techniques. These include:

Riding in a Group: Group riding lessons allow you to learn from other riders, improve your social skills with horses, and practice riding in a group setting, which adds challenges like navigating around other horses.

Jumping: If you're interested in jumping, your instructor will guide you through the basics of riding over small obstacles. Jumping requires good posture, timing, and coordination with the horse.

Dressage: If you enjoy precision and grace, dressage might be a path you’d like to follow. Dressage involves performing a series of movements or "tests" on horseback, focusing on communication and control.

Staying Committed and Setting Goals

Horseback riding is a skill that takes time to develop, and it’s important to remain patient and committed throughout your journey. Set realistic goals and celebrate your progress. Whether it’s mastering the trot, riding a certain distance, or competing in your first show, each milestone is a step forward in your riding adventure.

By staying consistent with your lessons, practicing regularly, and maintaining a positive mindset, you’ll soon find yourself more confident and skilled in the saddle. Keep challenging yourself and enjoy the beautiful bond you’re building with your horse.

Conclusion

Horseback riding is a rewarding and exciting journey that offers both challenges and joys. Starting with the right lessons and understanding the basics will set you on the path to becoming a skilled and confident rider. Remember to choose a reputable instructor, focus on safety, and progress at your own pace. With patience, dedication, and a love for horses, you’ll soon be enjoying the ride of a lifetime!

🐴 Equestrian News: World Cup Animal Welfare & USDF Posting Trot Rule Change 🏇✨

Hey, horse lovers! Some big updates are happening in the equestrian world, and they’re worth talking about. Let’s dive in!

🌍 World Cup Sweden: Stronger Horse Welfare Measures

The World Cup in Sweden is making horse welfare a priority this year with some important changes:

✅ Independent monitoring – A third-party company will oversee the event and report directly to show management, NOT competitors. ✅ More visibility – Grandstands will now surround both the warm-up and competition arenas to allow spectators and officials to keep a close eye on everything happening.

This is a huge step toward transparency in high-level competition. What do you think—will it improve horse welfare at the event?

🏇 USDF Rule Change: Posting Trot Clarified

The United States Dressage Federation (USDF) has finally clarified an ongoing debate about when riders must sit the trot in dressage tests:

🔹 If the test says “working trot”, riders must sit. 🔹 If it specifies “posting working trot”, then posting is allowed.

This change came after a competitor challenged the rule in upper levels, prompting USDF to make the language clearer. Love it? Hate it? Let’s talk!
