REGION 5 DIRECTORS MESSAGE
Another great competition year has passed for USDF and we have
wrapped up the Great American/USDF Region 5 Championships in
Scottsdale, Arizona. Im very sorry I wasnt able to attend this year
due to family commitments but the classes looked quite large and
there was great representation from all over our region. Many many
thanks to the great show management team and the wonderful
volunteers of the Arizona Dressage Association and other volunteers
from all over the Region who pitched in to help at the show. Thanks
to everyone for joining in for a fantastic show.
The 2016 Great American/USDF Region 5 Championships will be
September 15-18, 2016 at the Stanley Park Fairgrounds in Estes
Park, Colorado. The Rocky Mountain Dressage Society will be our
host and were looking forward to another great year. Were hoping
for some new and diverse bids for the 2017 championships. Id love
to hear from any interested parties as soon as possible so I can
get you a list of the information were going to need for those
bids. All Regional Championships still must be held by mid-October
since the winners of the Adult Amateur and Open divisions will
continue to feed into the Nationals Championships. We will know
hopefully by the USDF Convention if we will be seeing the National
Championships rotate to a new venue for 2017. The National
Championships keep growing and its great to see so many folks from
the Region 5 Championships planning to attend the Nationals.
The USDF convention is just around the corner and its time to
book your hotel rooms, airfare and register for the convention and
symposium if you havent done so already! Its Vegas Baby! December
2nd-5th. Information and registration forms for the Convention and
Symposium are available at www.usdf.org/Convention/. If youre
coming to the awards dinner, let me know and well save room for you
at our Region 5 tables!
A reminder that your Participating Member Delegates to the USDF
Convention for 2015 are Eva-Maria

performance. Reflexology is the practice of applying pressure to
the feet and hands to reduce tension and induce deep relaxation
sending signals that balance the nervous system and release
endor-phins, reducing pain and stress.

Inspiring Through The Levels Symposium
By Michell CombsA fun group of Arizona dressage enthusiasts
attended a Through The Dressage Levels symposium with Charlote
DuJardin October 3-4, 2015 at the lovely Devonwood Equestrian
center near Portland, Oregon.
Charlotte DuJardin, who I assume needs no introduction but if
so, resides in Great Britain. She has the current Worlds Record
scores in the dressage rankings for Grand Prix, Grand Prix Special
and Grand Prix Freestyle. She is ranked number one in the FEI World
Individual Dressage Ranking. She was the 2014 Individual World
Champion at Grand Prix Special and Freestyle at the Alltech FEI
World Equestrian Games and she is the 2012 Olympic Gold medal
individual and team winner. Now she is preparing for the upcoming
Olympics in Rio. Charlotte specializes in training dressage horses
from the very beginning to grand prix.
Charlotte shared a lot of personal stories about her experiences
leading up to her current superstar status. She didnt come from a
wealthy background but she was lucky to have access to horses from
a young age. She trained advanced dressage movements on her
Thoroughbred when she was just 11 or 12 years old. Charlotte had
some instruction and eventually she landed a job as a groom for
another British Olympian named Carl Hessler. A short time into her
employment, Charlotte saw that Carl was trying to sell a difficult
and hot horse. Charlotte, who was a nobody back then, begged
Carl

not to sell him and to let her ride the horse. Eventually Carl
agreed.
The horse, Valegro, is the amazing talent that has taken
Charlotte to an unbelievable riding career. Charlotte shared that
there were many nay-sayers in her life. These people told her many
negative things including that she was just an amateur rider and
not worthy of such opportunities. However, Charlottes perfectionist
attitude and courage persevered. She says the hardest part of being
at the level that she is at today is dealing with media and fan
expectations. She feels the pressure to always have the perfect
ride but she also knows that every person and horse has good and
bad days.
The symposium had about 1800 audience members. We had the
privilege to learn about Charlottes training program as she applied
her program to the symposiums horse and rider combinations. She
provided a lot of specific instruction and training exercises to
improve each horse, who ranged from 4 years old to 20 years old and
through all levels of training under saddle. The common theme was
to always keep the horse in front of the riders leg and for the
rider to not get stuck in one rhythm. Charlotte was very adamant
that each rider be brave and be correct. If a rider rode a bad
transition, she had them do it again. If the rider didnt ride a
corner correctly, the rider had to do it again. If the rider was
not clear in making the horse go forward from the leg she told them
to KICK and go for the yeehaw! Charlotte said she wasnt fond of
using a whip except to train the flying change or the advanced
dressage movements piaffe and passage. She believes the riders leg
must be the aid to make the horse go forward. She also was direct
about not punishing a horse for a mistake, but to keep riding
forward. She told the riders, Dont make a thing of it, or the horse
will be tense. Charlotte says when she rides horses she bends,
straightens, stretches and collects. She says her goal in riding is
to give my horse as much confidence as possible.
There are many write-ups of the clinic that Ive seen posted on
our various Facebook pages. They describe the training philosophy
and methods quite well. If you need access to any of them, let me
know.
It was a wonderful experience to learn from Charlotte DuJardin.
Shes such a down-to-earth person. At the symposium, Charlotte was
clear, understandable and exhibited a fun sense of humor. Now armed
with pages and pages of notes with helpful exercises, training tips
and explanations, Im eager to get started on revising my project
horses training plan.

NOVEMBER 2015 | THE CENTERLINE | 19
Equus Dressage has had a VERY busy couple of months! In
September we went to the Andalusian World cup in Las Vegas and
everyone was very successful! El Samaritano was put on the map with
well presented rides. Sandy Luebbe debuted her stallion
Gabito and took home top placings including Top Five awards.
This was also Sandys first Dressage show! Kathleen Downie and her
stallion Poblano Mor were Reserve Champions in the Suitability
class and won training level classes plus Top Five!. Tania Radda
was successful at first level with top placings and her horse
Teodoro lll debuted at Second level with a 65% with Tracey
Krajenke. Paula Paglia showed El Samaritanos Samaritano lX and was
Reserve FEI horse. Most of us rode in the Dressage Hack classes and
had a blast! South Point is a superb venue and we NEED to have
shows there!
The Jan Ebeling clinic was a huge success, and we cannot wait to
have him back in November. The dates have changed to November
15-16. Audit fee is $20. Info on the ADA calendar.
We at El Samaritano wish to welcome our newest trainer and team
mate Miguel Undabarrena to the facility. So excited to have
him!
We wish to welcome our new equine friends Baltic Idun a double
diploma SWB mare owned by Kathleen Downie, Ilustre and Grand Prix
PRE Stallion owned by Sandy Luebbe and Phil Merrill to arrive from
Spain early November , Novio a coming two year old PRE colt that
was purchased by Sandy Luebbe in Las Vegas at the World show and
Jajan a PRE Prix St. George gelding owned by Tami George.
Congratulations to Lindsay Naas and Roy-Els Belle of the Ball on
TWO World Championships at First and Second Level in Oklahoma. They
do it again and moved up a level. Great job!
Christie Jones and her beautiful gelding Claudio rock the 2015
Nutrena USEA American Eventing Championships in Texas! They were
third in the Adult Amateur Novice Division and first in the Team
Championships! There were 33 in the novice and 7 teams! Awesome
job!
Congratulations to Tania Radda and Teodore lll on their USDF
year end awards. They were All Breed Award Champions at Training
Level (IALHA Purebred), Reserve Champions for the Vintage Cup
(IALHA Purebred), and third at First Level (IALHA Purebred) It just
keeps coming for these two!
Lindsay Naas and her powerhouse mare also won awards with USDF.
Reserve Champions at First Level/Morgan horse, Reserve Champions at
First Level Freestyle/Morgan horse, and fifth place in Open First
level Lindsay Naas/Tracey Krajenke. Another great team!
Congratulations to ALL the competitors and winners at the
Regional Championships! It was a great show (except for the
Haboob!) with a super turn out! Lindsay Naas and Roy-Els Belle of
the Ball were Regional Champions for the Freestyle and won other
Freestyles at the show. Christie Jones and Claudio won classes with
scores up to 74% plus, Tania Radda and Teodoro lll were in
HUGE Regional classes and were in the middle of the pack with
tough competition, Tami George improved her PSG scores with her
Brendan Braveheart with only three shows under her belt with him.
Everyone did a great job and continues to improve!
Looking forward to the State Championships and the new
competition year! Good luck to all!

Heather BilodeauMy name is Heather Bilodeau. I always loved
horses but being a city kid, never had the opportunity to own a
horse until 10 years ago when a forlorn, 11 year old Arabian
gelding rescue dropped into my lap after washing out of a childrens
riding school program. After a few years of both of us relearning
the basics, we embraced dressage wholeheartedly despite advancing
age and arthritis! I ran for the ADA board two years ago out of
interest in learning how the organization worked and have enjoyed
every minute of being a board member. I currently serve as the
Volunteer Committee Chair and also the Vendor Coordinator. I look
forward to continuing to serve the ADA members and hope to inspire
more involvement with our East Valley members.
Lara Bowles My name is Lara Bowles, and I am running for
re-election to the Arizona Dressage Association Board of Directors.
I joined the board last year to fill a vacancy, and have served as
Second Vice President. I have served the Board in the past,
chairing the Education Committee years ago. Ive been on and around
horses since a very young age, but really started riding in a
structured manner back in the late 90s. My background includes both
4-H and Pony Club, and I believe very strongly in riders having a
solid foundation in horsemanship. Despite convention, in 2014 I
earned my USDF Bronze aboard my then 27 year old gelding Fameus
(Frango), who Id purchased as a green 14 year old back in 2001.
This past year on the board Ive been increasingly involved with the
Schooling Show series, as well as volunteering regularly at shows
and clinics. I very much enjoy supporting and encouraging riders in
their growth and experience with dressage, and hope to continue to
serve towards this end on the ADA Board.
Sarah Lindsten I have been a member of the Arizona Dressage
Association Board of Directors since 2013 as Education Chair.
During this time I have organized some fun and informative clinics
for the ADA members such as the October 2013 Conrad Schumacher
Clinic, April 2014 Jan Ebeling Clinic, and the May 2015 Cynthia
Collins, Freestyle Clinic. In addition to these riding clinics, I
also coordinated a Scribe Clinic which was facilitated by Bev
Rogers. I recently earned both my USDF Bronze and Silver Medals. I
am currently riding my DWB gelding, Cookie at Prix St Georges, and
preparing to show Intermediate I in 2016.
Upcoming Educational Clinics in 2016:
Response Training Desensitizing the Spooky Horse.
USDF Upgrade Your Judging Eye I
Spring 2016 Big Name Trainer Clinic. I will be sending out a
survey to the members asking for ideas for our next Big Name
Trainer Clinic.

Trailer Safety Clinic
I work for the Mayo Clinic in the Continuous Professional
Development Department as an Education Coordinator where I assist
in the planning and coordination of Continuing Medical Education
courses. I recently completed the USDF L Program where I graduated
with Distinction. I have been judging local schooling shows for the
past year. I hope to further my judging education by completing the
USEF Dressage Judges r Training Program.
Sue LeutwylerDressage has been my passion since I was a young
child growing up in Iowa. Like Heather, I was raised a city kid and
didnt have access to horses, but Ill always remember the first time
I got hooked on Dressage when I watched the Lipizzan stallions
perform at our Iowa State Fair. Their beauty and grace and the
nearly invisible aids of their riders cemented my love of horses
and my riding goals from that moment forward.
To grow up and become part of the Olympic sport of Dressage has
been a privilege and a joy. I have benefited from Arizona Dressage
Association and our local professionals bringing top notch
educational events, clinics and lectures, and excellent schooling
and recognized show opportunities to our state. Ive served ADA in
many different capacities since 2006, and would love to keep paying
this privilege forward by continuing to work both at the local and
national levels of our sport for the benefit of our GMO and its
members.

Get to know the rulesDR116 The Impulsion, The Submission
1. Impulsion is the term used to describe the transmission of an
eager and energetic, yet controlled, propulsive energy generated
from the hind quarters into the athletic movement of the horse. Its
ultimate expression can be shown only through the horses soft and
swinging back guided by elastic contact with the riders hand. a.
Speed, of itself, has little to do with impulsion; the result is
more often a flattening of the gaits. A visible characteristic is a
more pronounced articulation of the hind leg, in a continuous
rather than staccato action. The hock, as the hind foot leaves the
ground, should first move forward rather than being pulled upwards,
but certainly not backwards. A prime ingredient of impulsion is the
time the horse spends in the air rather than on the ground.
Impulsion is, therefore, seen only in those gaits that have a
period of suspension. b. Impulsion is a precondition for a good
collection in trot and canter. If there is no impulsion, then there
is nothing to collect.
2. Submission does not mean subordination, but an obedience
revealing its presence by a constant attention, willingness and
confidence in the whole behavior of the horse as well as by the
harmony, lightness and ease it is displaying in the execution of
the different movements. The degree of the submission is also
demonstrated by the way the horse accepts the bit, with an elastic
contact and a supple poll. Resistance to or evasion of the riders
hand, being either above the bit or behind the bit demonstrate lack
of submission. The main contact with the horses mouth must be
through the snaffle bit. a. Putting out the tongue, keeping it
above the bit or drawing it up altogether, as well as grinding the
teeth or agitation of the tail, are mostly signs of nervousness,
tension or resistance on the part of the horse and must be taken
into account by the judges in their marks for every movement
concerned, as well as in the collective mark for submission. b. The
first thought when considering submission is willingness, that the
horse understands what is being asked of it and is confident enough
in the rider to react to the aids without fear or tension. c. The
horses straightness, uphill tendency and balance enable it to stay
in front of the riders legs and go forward into an accepting and
self-carrying contact with the bit. This is what really produces
the picture of harmony and lightness. Fulfillment of the main
requirements/movements of a Dressage test is the primary criterion
for submission.

Barn Tip:Outdoor Folding Wagon
Are you planning to go to an out of town show this season? You
will have to haul all your stuff from your horse trailer to your
tack room by yourself, the horse never seems to help us with this.
At some shows it can be a long haul from the trailer parking area
to the show grounds stabling. A folding canvas wagon will take up
no space in the trailer and will make those back and forth trips
through gravel, grass or mud a lot easier. The wagon I have came
from Wal-Mart and is rated to hold 225 lbs. Do a little research
and find one that will work for you.

2015 Year End Awards require 4 hours of your time from an
ADA-sponsored event. All Members (even NAC) who want to be eligible
for Year End Awards must complete the volunteer requirement before
November 30, 2015 for the 2015 Year End Award Season.
The ADA relies on volunteers to run an enjoyable, organized
event. Fulfillment of service requirements for ADA year end awards,
scholarship and travel grant eligibility, and the rewards of
friendship and free education are just some of the ways you benefit
when you volunteer. And the best way to thank your volunteers is to
return the favor when its their time to be part of an education or
competitive event. Wed love to have your help for a morning or
afternoon shift (4-5 hours) but even if you can only donate an hour
or two, we appreciate your help. Competitors, we can also work
around your ride schedule.
You can also submit Centerline articles, Barn News, Riding Tips,
donate your venue or host an ADA-sponsored event! Lots of ways to
give back to your organization.
Too busy, but know somebody willing to volunteer on your
behalf?
Surrogate volunteers are welcome!
