My first show EVER is this weekend...it's an eventing mini trial. Now, the jumping portions are pretty clear cut, but the dressage is what I'm getting nervous about!

My trainer tells me to just relax, that I'll do fine, but I'm such a perfectionist I of course have to obsess over this and get as much advice as humanly possible lol!! :lol:

Soooo what tips do you have for me on how to get a good score on my dressage test?? (for those interested in the test, it's Intro Test A)

THANKS!!

I sometimes scribe for judges and they look for nice forward movement pushing the hindquarters out on your circles , use your corners and watch were you do your transitions make sure they're when your at the letter :) good luck!!!

Eventerdrew covered pretty much everything for your test. Just remember to keep consistent with your rythm as that is mostly what the judge looks for in that test as well as corners. Also, make sure your relaxed for your free rein, keeping quiet with your legs and reins throughout with your reins forward, that will help. Don't forget to let us all know how you did..Good luck
