INSIDE:Trainer’s conference review
KHP updates... and more
Dear KDA Members,
Well, spring is here, the tem-peratures are slowly rising, the grass is coming, and our
May show is just around the corner. The show committee is full steam ahead and things are coming together, but there is still much planning to do and all members’ involvement is ap-preciated.
As this is a non-qualifying year for the World Equestrian Games, Pan Am Games, and Olympics, attendance at many CDIs is down across the coun-try. But KDA is going ahead with its CDI1* and CDI3* in the Rolex Arena this year after much deliberation among the show committee and board. I recently attended a CDI in Welling-ton and came home realizing our May shows have more competitors, rings, horses, vendors, and activities and we are building a wonderful show and event of which to be proud.
Conducting a show of this size and wanting to improve the dressage complex made KDA leaders question our image and marketability. Are we
sending out promotional materials that reflect the level of event we have? Does our website reflect a professional image? Do we have materials to really promote and get money for the dres-sage complex? After reviewing these questions, the board answered no to all. We have contracted with Equi-seen, an equine marketing company, to develop a marketing plan, new website, promotional materials, and sponsorship packages to push KDA to the next level. You will see changes to the KDA look and image very soon. If you would like to be involved in this process please contact me at [email protected].
A big addition to our May show is a 5K run and walk around the Kentucky Horse Park on Saturday, May 25. The event will raise money for cancer re-search in memory of Mary Kearney, a former KDA member, dressage rider, and horse lover. The run/walk will be-gin in the late afternoon and start and end in the Rolex Arena. All partici-pants will be invited to stay and watch the World of Horses breed show, a
Central Kentucky Riding for Hope demonstration, and our freestyles Sat-urday evening. The event should raise money for a wonderful cause and give area residents a wonderful taste of the Kentucky Horse Park and dressage, so the combination is a win-win for everyone.
KDA is also working hard to re-ward our show volunteers, who are the backbone of this show. There will be some new perks: volunteers working eight hours at our May show will get their names placed in a raffle drawing for a Borne Saddle package along with receiving meals and extra thank you’s. We have a new email address just for our volunteers: [email protected] and a Facebook page KDA show volunteers to keep everyone informed.
As you can see, much work is under way for our May shows, so I ask all of you to become involved. Thanks in advance for all your help.

with these goals, your KDA Education Chair and Board Committee was able to provide deep discounts to all active KDA members through our successes in 2012.
It is my sincere hope that you will find one of these clinics appropriate to your goals, financial and equine. Please know that these are kind clini-cians personally selected by myself and your board, with whom we have found to provide value for your clinic dollars. Whether a seasoned show veteran competing at fourth level, or a non-competitor looking to find the dressage basics on your best-hooved-friend (your BHF), I would like to per-sonally invite you out to clinic or audit.

I was lucky enough to receive the 2012 KDA open grant, which I used to attend the 2013 Succeed/
USDF FEI-Level Trainers’ Confer-ence. This event was held Jan. 21-22 in Loxahatchee, Fla., and featured Steffen Peters and Scott Hassler. nine horses with FEI goals ranging in ages from 6 to 9 were presented each day. Steffen identified training weaknesses in each horse, and actually rode many of the horses; afterwards, Scott would summarize highlights of each ride.
The focus of the symposium was not so much techniques or exercises to use in training the horse, but rather how we should approach training. One important theme that was re-peated was that the rider must be the horse’s coach and show him how to use his body rather than force him to do movements. Steffen stated that the rider should “train in such a way that anyone can watch at any time” — make it always logical and respect-ful so that the horse can understand and develop confidence. Scott often stressed that the rider should always be asking himself, “do I have the right to ask something new of this horse?”
Often, riders like to address train-ing weaknesses as physical weakness — i.e., my horse needs to develop physical strength to be more consis-tent in the movements. To Steffen, the issue is usually not lack of physical development, but rather confusion about what the rider is asking. A rider should be absolutely clear in his or her aids, and should ensure the horse understands these aids. To achieve this, the rider should keep his or her aids very simple and consistent. For
example, the canter aid should be a very simple leg aid, as it will become your flying change aid later. The rider should not nag the horse but should use the aid and then let the horse per-form on his own. Steffen believes that mistakes and resistance are usually not disobedience but a lack of un-derstanding of what the rider wants. The horse should not be punished for mistakes but allowed to make them and then gently corrected. Addition-ally, it is not about the strength of the correction but about the timing.
When the horse understands the aids, he should offer the movements; he may need brief reminders, but the movements should not be forced from the rider. Many of the horses were schooling canter pirouettes, and naturally many of the riders wanted to help their horses keep energy through the pirouette by using the leg on every stride. Steffen watched to see if the rider was working too hard to main-tain the canter and would advise to do as small of a pirouette as the horse could do on his own with only gentle reminders to keep the canter. The end result is a pirouette that appears ef-fortless rather than labored.
To Steffen, connection is the number one priority. neck length and height are two different issues — is the horse too short in the neck or just too low in the neck? It is just as important to be able to adjust neck height as it is to adjust neck length. Steffen encouraged several riders to bring their horses much more up in the neck than they were used to working at home. If the contact is not there, then long and low will not do any good. The rider should give lots of breaks but teach the horse to maintain
a polite connection even during the break. Steffen likes to know that he can let his horses walk and relax, and that they will still be there when they go back to work. This is the free walk in the test. However, every transition is a schooling opportunity — make sure they don’t just quit into the walk but do a quality transition and then respectfully stretch.
What was most striking through-out the conference was Steffen’s incredible kindness to the horse. This was most evident with a horse that threatened to rear several times. In a moment when many trainers would have punished the horse, Steffen calmly waited then asked again. He never ignored the issue, but rather than getting after the horse he sim-ply repeated and clarified the aid. In this way, he was able to increase the horse’s understanding and get a more willing response without creat-ing more tension. Steffen allowed the horse to make mistakes and taught the horse to offer movements rather than focusing his sessions on strengthen-ing the horse. In his words, “what’s in the heart is way more important than what is in the lungs. I like heart capacity.”
I would like to thank KDA for this wonderful experience that would have not been possible without their support. It was a wonderful trip filled with beautiful horses and beautiful training, and I hope to have the oppor-tunity to learn from both Steffen and Scott again in the future.

KDA SCHOOLING SHOW AT EqUESTRIAN LAKES By Shelia Woerth
Snow, biting wind...intrepid horses and riders, hardy volunteers, warm hospitality, delicious barbecue and hot chocolate, and excellent footing were all part of KDA’s inaugural schooling show March 2 at beautiful
Equestrian Lakes. Joanna and Rob Gartman, their staff, and Julie Sanchez, their Barn Manag-
er, worked very hard not only to make everyone welcome, but set the dressage ring, and then the jumps for the Prix Caprilli class.
Riders and huddled spectators loved watching all the rides, and the Fun Classes. There was a lone rider, Mindy Greenwell, in the Race for the Phone Book Class, but I know she will be joined by others next year. She had a time of 47.6 seconds! The three riders in the Ride a Buck Class took it very seriously! Mindy won again. It was fitting that Julie Sanchez won the Egg and Spoon Class riding bareback!
Maureen John (r) was the judge, Anne Kuhns, the Show Manager, Suzanne Richards and her daughter, Jena White, took care of scoring, Kit Woerth was the Ring Steward, and Lily Sanchez and Mariah Barker were the runners. I scribed for Maureen, bless her. next time, I’ll review Robin Weinstein’s Scrib-ing 101 before I try to rely on my shorthand! Glenn Reed came and wrote checks for those that needed them.
We had 45 paid rides and hope to double that next March. Susie Bright told us in the office at the end of the show, that she knew dressage riders south of Louisville that, when they heard what a good and fun time everyone had, they’d want to come and participate next spring.
Woerth is the KDA Show Chairman.
KHP DRESSAGE COMPLEX UPDATEWe received wonderful news a
few weeks ago. The Kentucky Horse Park Foundation received a do-nation of $8,000 which the KHPF has earmarked for the renovation of the KHP Dressage Complex.
Presently, there is $9,643.33 in the KHP DC Fund checking account and $8000 in KHP Foundation account.
When we get to $20,000 (money combined within our account and the KHPF), we will be able to get real plans made for the retention basin that will be dug on the far side of the racetrack. These plans will also in-clude terracing the south side of the track that will be used for viewing dressage in the complex.
KDA is a 501 (c) 3 association and also registered with the Common-wealth’s Attorney General’s Office as a charitable organization.
Tax deductible donations can be made out to KDA and mailed to: Sheila Woerth, 4557 Windstar Way, Lexington, KY 40515.

ThE RovING REPoRTER8
By Cindy K Smith
It all began about 20 years ago with a little “singing in the saddle” on her mare Luna, an Andalusian-Thoroughbred cross that took Cynthia Collins all the way to Grand Prix. Cynthia, the founder and creator of Luna Tunes Freestyles, started “singing to the trot” and then bringing a metronome to the warm-up arena at dressage shows where fellow competitors called her “the beep beep lady.” Beep beep was the sound her metronome made during her warm-ups. Cynthia laughed off the rude comments, all the way to her gold medal on her non-traditional breed dressage horse. Cynthia trained with Hilda Gurney, who realized her student was really onto some-thing and should start creating freestyles for others.
now Cynthia travels the United States creat-ing dressage freestyle choreography for adult amateurs, juniors, young riders, and many professionals. Last year, Cynthia choreographed the top four freestyle performances in the United States — two of whom were ridden by KDA members: An-gela Hecker Jackson in the number one spot with her client’s Dutch horse Allure S, and Susan Posner riding Audrey narducci’s Belgian Warmblood Ali Baba B in fourth place.
Susan Posner graciously coor-dinated the Luna Tunes Freestyle Clinic held on March 23–24 at Sayre Combs’ Haylands Farm in Lexington, Ky. Susan received a grant from The Dressage Founda-tion (www.dressagefoundation.
org) to help offset costs, while KDA provided members with a gener-ous discount to ride in the clinic. Although it was the third day of spring, Mother nature did not want to cooperate and the clinic was a tad chilly in the morning until the sun came out in the afternoon. On Sunday, with a drop in temperature the rain beat down so hard on the arena roof that it was impossible to hear the music and we had to resort to headsets and layers of clothing.
Many of the participants had already designed choreography
or had selected music, so were there to tweak existing freestyle designs to accommodate moving up a level, highlighting strengths, avoiding weak-nesses, or adjusting music or movements. I believe I was the “rookie” of the bunch and started blindly from scratch. Riding my 10-year-old Dutch mare Waukena, I spent my first day simply showcas-ing my mare’s gaits and discussing strengths and weaknesses with Cyn-thia. We worked on music selections, trying to find music that matched my
mare’s tempo and complemented her walk, trot, and canter. She then asked if I liked the music or not, and I wanted to really be able to feel the music and enjoy it so I spoke up when I did or didn’t care for a song. For instance, Barry Manilow muzak was just not going to inspire me, even if it matched Waukena’s gaits to perfection. That seemed simple enough, until day two.
The second day consisted of cho-reographing the music we had se-lected from day one to movements that would showcase Waukena’s strengths. I have to say that I felt
like a pretzel within the first 15 min-utes, trying to find letters and put together movements all at once. Try having someone call out all of the letters down centerline (letters that we lower level riders don’t use so much) and tell you to do movements unlike any test pattern you’ve ever done…crazy. Waukena did a lot of head tossing while I kept changing direction and tried to get organized. After about 20 minutes my brain finally began to make sense of the patterns and things started to click. I’m looking forward to putting it all together.
The winter weather kept me from sitting and watching all of the other riders, but there was quite a collection of talent. KDA members riding in the clinic included young rider Rebekah Mingari and her Dutch gelding Unico; adult amateur Julie Cook riding her own Dutch gelding Remus; professional Laura Corsentino on her own successful freestyle horse Gravitas; as well as Lee Ann Kagy’s Drum horse Eclipse. Then professional Susan Posner rode Julie Moses’ Hanoveri-an gelding, Storyville, and her own Trakehner gelding Tympani; pro-fessional Angela Jackson rode the champion Dutch mare Allure S; and a new KDA member Ann Boehning rode her mare, O’neill.
A big thank you to Susan for all of her hard work in coordinat-ing the event and Sayre Combs for providing the stabling and arena. Additional thanks go to The Dres-sage Foundation for its financial support and to KDA for making it affordable to our members. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention KDA member Kristin Posner for photo-graphing some of the horse-and-rid-er combinations and assisting with various details, lunches, and travel for Cynthia.
What is a freestyle?Dressage Musical Freestyle combines the elegance and beauty as well as the power and strength of the horse with the stirring impact of music. This creative expres-sion of the horse-rider relationship is entertaining and offers great audience appeal. The tests are offered from Training to Fourth levels through the USDF, while the FEI is responsible for Para Equestrian, Junior Young Riders, Young Rid-ers, Intermediate I, Grand Prix, and FEI Pony. Musical Freestyles are a component of the dressage competition at the Olympics, and World Equestrian Games. (USDF)
LUNA TUNES FREESTYLE CLINIC REPORT
BROKEN
Black mane and tail
16.3 bay contained by post and rail
Cantered off leaving dust and dirt
Black hair blue eyes red shirt
She paused to say “hello” and flirt
Two loves begun
Not just one
We worked within the pen
Round and round and round again
She meeting me before school
Breaking yet another rule
And love began to grow
Something horse, woman, or man could know
Saddle and bridle you did take
And with my weight a rider make
She would slip her hand in mine
And so our love it was sublime
Canter trot and half pass too
I’d just think and you would do
All she’d do is touch my hand
Her feelings I would understand
So our love just grew and grew
Never gave a thought to what we’d do.
Her father he did take her away
Betrothed to another man today
So too gone my mane and tail
Owner took him down another trail
Her father has asked me to attend
Her wedding to his friend
And that will be the end
Of a love that must go unspoken
His decision left me broken
So too my mane and tail
Asked to watch you ride another trail
Never again to feel your power beneath my seat
Never again allowed to feel the beat
Never allowed with you to compete
Never again to feel our communication unspoken
From that I am more than broken

Introductions are in order since we are your 2013 vol-unteer coordinators. Here is a little about us:
Sandy Kraatz — I have been a nurse for 38 years and cur-rently work full-time at two hospitals. I am in revenue management at one hospital and work in a staff Rn posi-tion in the ER in the other. I have owned and ridden horses for 26 years and have volunteered at many shows during those years. I look forward to using my past experiences for the KDA.
Bethany Kraatz — I am a soon-to-be graduate of Asbury University, majoring in Equine Management and Busi-ness. I have ridden and shown since I was 2 years old, and switched from saddle seat to dressage about five years ago. I have volunteered at shows since I was very young and have learned much that I can use in this position.
We are excited to serve as volunteer coordinators this year and look forward to meeting and working with all of you. We have a good foundation to build upon and are using the information passed on by Kat, Sheila, and Cindy from previous years. We hope to help make this year’s shows continue to run smoothly while everyone has fun doing it
We are in the process of contacting people who have volunteered in the past, but can always use some new faces. If you are interested in volunteering at any of our shows, please contact us and we will find a volunteer posi-tion to match your schedule, talents, and experience. The contact information is:
