Introductory A Dressage Test

[polishandgloss]

Thank you for this, super helpful! I will be testing Intro A in April - will the test change by then or will it be this specific test, USDF still has this test posted as of today.

i did this my last lesson but instead of the 20 c circle or what ever she told me big circle at A .... can you do the dressage test (thingie) B because im going to be working on that over the next couple of months and i want to see how that looks

[Sierra33422]

Thank you. I watch as many videos as I possibly can. I will be competing this year for the first time. I know the tests have changed slightly. I must e-mail this test to my trainer. She insists you cannot enter down center line without saluting judge. I have looked at intro A online and it does not indicate a salute. Am I missing something??

@Sierra33422 in the beginning of this test, there is no x halt salute IN THIS SPECIFIC TEST . there is at the end. but I wish you the best of luck!! :)

Does it matter too much if your horse is bad at outlines at this level? as long as it flex's correctly on corners?x

[eventingfreak101]

@clooneylooney I don't think I'm the right person to ask about that because I'm not sure what really matters at this level or not...I kind of skipped it and went on to Training 1 so I'm not sure of all the qualifications but you can check the USDF website or talk to a dressage trainer :) I just made this video to show the test but I am not expert :) Hope that helps! Sorry I can't answer you're question. :(

thanks :) really useful !

[eventingfreak101]

@RISSYRACER you're welcome :D glad it helped!!!!!

[eventingfreak101]

@GuineaPurr Same! It's great! Thanks you too <3

[eventingfreak101]

@GuineaPurr Yeah I getchya! It's cool! No, on the Intro A Test no halt at X :)

[eventingfreak101]

@GuineaPurr well the tests were just updated for 2011. and also for the eventing tests such as Beginner Novice test A - there is no X halt salute until the end

[eventingfreak101]

@GuineaPurr On the test I was reading, you weren't supposed to halt at X. And yeah I already knew that about her free walk. She and I have been working. Thanks!
