The Western Dressage Association of America is very new, only a few years old. The statutes of the association can be consulted on their website, westerndressageassociation.org/. Please read all basic codes and dress codes. Let`s summarize what is required: These parts are legal for training for FEI. As a general rule, most federations reflect their rules outside the FEI rules, but not always. You can check if your piece is legal by consulting the appendix on the dressage of your club. Google is ideal for this. I recommend practicing at home with the harness you want to use at the show. It`s so important! Train at home with the bridles, bits and saddles/pads you would use at a show. This way, you and your horse know the booklet and avoid unpleasant surprises on the day of the show.
Keep the same piece and use the softest piece to promote relaxation. A relaxed mouth will always give you a more responsive horse. Bits are another topic. Some people train at home with a softer piece and use a harder piece at the show. I advise against this practice as it will only cause problems. When a horse goes to a show, he finds himself in a new and unfamiliar environment. A new place will make a horse more and more sensitive. Using a heavier or more reactive bite to take control of a more reactive horse at a show will only amplify the horse`s reactions even more. Your email address will not be published.

If you are still not sure, please send us a private message or email at Info@horsebitemporium.com With my experienced rider/saddler husband, we designed a western dressage saddle (see www.lynnpalm.com under “Shop” on the homepage). It has been specially developed for this fun new competition. Most people will have a nice show saddle that suits both horse and rider, but will never use it unless they are at a show. Instead of using their “good” saddle at home for school and practice, they may have a “functional” but poor-quality saddle that is not suitable for both horse and rider.
