Dear Stupid Dressage Diva: Dressage Hub Is Deplorable!

[@thejindoman7471]

When the Dressage Divas start getting "uncomfortable" and voice their "outrage", you know you are moving in the right direction. Keep speaking up about the corruptions in the sport and judging and keep doing what you do 🎯👍🙌

[@DressageHub]

They have been uncomfortable for a long time. My only regret was not showcasing the harassment earlier.

Now, now, now let's not get catty ladies. And please not make comments about old age and dying. Just because I am 72, doesn't mean that I no longer contribute anything worthwhile to anyone. I am a retired breeder of Hanoverians, and was an upper level rider for years. I was also a certified instructor. Maybe I move a lot slower than I used to, but I believe that my brain still works fairly well. Even retired horses turned out to pasture, like Valegro are still ridden and cared for, and many are considered to be Schoolmasters. I am not sure if you were being sarcastic or not, but the mouth in Dartmouth is pronounced like muth, not mouth. In New England many of the names came with the old English spelling. Thank you

[@DressageHub]

Fair enough! I just like to trigger my haters so I sprinkle a few more things into the mix for them to talk about

@@DressageHub I think that I know the Suzanne you are talking about. Does she have a Q in her name?

[@zodiacmindwarp2691]

Well said 👏🏼

[@2000konnie]

Yes. I was disgusted by her ageist comments. They aren't helpful to the cause of helping horses.

I had my comment pinned on the video regarding Lockeman (thank you for that, btw!) and received a surprisingly critical reply from another YT account. It's hard to comprehend why some remain blindly loyal, and will so vehemently fight for what is an obviously flawed system. Why they are so quick to stand up for and defend the authorities, as if those same judges wouldn't place them last if paid the proper amount, or allow even more blatant abuses if given the right motivation, is beyond me. It reminds me of the Americans who call their fellow citizens unpatriotic for criticizing the government, when the government today operates with the same tyranny and impunity as the evil monarchy the founders feigned to gain independence from. In both cases, the blind have been brainwashed by an evil system that is being exposed, yet they cannot face that they were lied to, and wrong. To them, questioning authority is the bigger problem. To me, corruption is even worse when such noble animals are involved. Questioning the actions and exposing the wrongdoings of those hiding behind power, tradition, and authority may seem like a thankless job, but it needs to be done, now more than ever. Keep up the good work!

[@DressageHub]

Thank you!!

Oh, please, please, please go to DayByDay Vlogs and tell Laura, the mom from equestrian hell, that you too have suffered at the hands (or words) of your haters. JK. Or go to the vlog titled Oxer Disaster and then you can join all of us horse lovers in noticing that the pony Finn is lame, and that it is time for Sophie to not ride him anymore (for obvious reasons). I promise you, that if you would like to post a reaction video as did Shelby Dennis or Raleigh Reacts then you too will be labeled as a hater. So I guess at that point you would be a hate receiver giving hate….do those cancel each other out??? Obviously I am being *only slightly* sarcastic. DayByDay has nothing to do with dressage, but they have exhibited many poor choices in riding and in caring for their horses. I am so appreciative of both Raleigh and Shelby because I truly believe they are almost solely responsible for the pony Finn (they also have a horse Finn) no longer being ridden. Thank god! They have also given a lot of people a place to vent, and for some of us, a place to cry. As a senior citizen who has been involved with horses for over 55 yrs, I was frustrated beyond belief by the DayByDay family, and then treated horribly in private messages with Laura. I was glad to be blocked by her because it let me know I was right in what I was saying. Anyway, sorry to jump on your post like this. I actually just “found” you and you now have a new sub. I like your witty, sometimes snotty, style! You go, girl!

Don’t listen to the trolls! Don’t even think about them! We love your content 💕 You are my #1 go to when I need a little inspiration to get in the arena and work. And that is something awesome. Because I’m only 1 little old rider. Think about the thousands of other riders out there that you reach. Riders who maybe work a little harder or a little longer because they saw a kickass freestyle on your channel before heading to the barn. Girl, your doing good. For riders. The industry. And ultimately the horse. More riders, more awareness, more funding for every horse out there. That’s something awesome 🤩

[@DressageHub]

🤩🤩🤩🤩😊😊😊😊thank you!

[@emilielaval2998]

I am not talking about judging or about corruption. But I’m friends with Sarah and Lee and their love is genuine. Also Lee is a very charming guy and I know many girls who would’ve dated him. Its not because he’s older that he can’t be attractive. He has tons of charm.

[@DressageHub]

That charm you speak of is narcissism. I know Lee and the Lee I know is a narcissist lying cheating manipulative and abusive asshole. I feel sorry for Sarah because old balls was the nicest thing I could say about him. Know that what you see is not what happens behind closed doors.

[@privatemailcall6011]

Lol... You're hilarious. I do enjoy these moments. Happy Thanksgiving ☺️

[@valmiron4360]

I've been a subscriber for a few months. I like this channel. I think these trolls are jealous. Do they ride? Dressage takes an incredible amount of dedication & work! This commitment will show itself in the ring. No fooling there. Some Judges, however, perhaps show bias. This is not, of course, a good thing. Riders work very hard to compete. Showing favoritism does not help anybody. Honesty & fairness is the reward.

[@drestergios7328]

Love your vids!!! Never seen so much corruption and I’m an ex gold medal figure skater!!! Since when can a judge be a trainer and a competitor let alone a competitor marry a judge?? SMH all day long. Keep on keeping on!!! Happy 2022!!!

[@elizabethowen3678]

Suzie and Susan are right!!. I have also seen your videos and they do show horrible footage, ironically of little suzie and susans being cruel to their horses 🤦‍♀️

[@catherinewhite4313]

Riding does not equal abuse.

[@victoriaturner1320]

I really enjoy Dressage Hub. It calls a spade a spade, and yes I am one of the old girls who blob around an arena like a sack of spuds.😂

[@DressageHub]

You can blob around all you want as long as you and your horse are happy

[@DressageHub]

Thanks for being a fan as

[@pamelamunson9628]

You are a troll. Dressage means learning. So horses make mistakes and riders make mistakes. It's a long, difficult process that takes real commitment. You revel in these mistakes and only make negative comments. You have certain targets ,too, You ae what we always called a 'mean girl'.

[@lizroberts1569]

I’d agree to a degree, but she also calls out real abuse. The personal opinions about the horse breeders size was just plain bullying, she’d have much more impact if she stuck to facts instead of what appear to be vendettas

[@rockannand]

She is a Narcissistic Psychopath... gets her 'supply' from being mean, bullying and from anyone who fights back. She loves animals, but hates humans. Unfortunately, this kind of personality disorder is incurable. What we have to do is block her from every angle and let her shrivel up from lack fuel.

[@shirleygeorge5222]

I think dressage hub is very uninformed on what is a score in dressage. She has never even done dressage nor competed . Dressage is a subjective sport - each judge has their variants and one may think 1 movement is better than the other judges opinion . The score sheet has Collective marks and Riders position and how it shows off horses gaits . The more impressive the gait ,cadence and presence it will be marked higher even if rider makes a mistake and next rider has average horse w average gaits and makes no mistakes. I have Only competed in approximately 15 tests in recognized competition and all of the judges remarks were true in the boxes. One judges 6 could be another judges 7 . It is just the way the sport is . Corruption is a very hard word as how does one prove that if the sport is based on a judges opinion . I say w 1 judge it could be called corrupt or just their opinion but when you have 2 or more judges it can prevent this view of being corrupt . So I accept the sport and work hard to please myself to do well and have a peaceful partnership w my horse. But I would advise Miss Dressage Hub that insulting older people fit whatever reason shows NO class on your part . U will be in their shoes someday . U think u know so much about judging why don’t u take the L program instead of just assuming you know about the sport .

[@DressageHub]

Maybe you should ride more than 15 tests before you run your mouth...

[@carolannlocks]

@@DressageHub hmm I have been riding dressage for about 15 years and did schooling shows w my other trainers school horses since I couldn’t afford my own dressage horse. I then bought a horse finally and I do now have 2 dressage horses . I had just started the show circuit about 5 years ago however shows are expensive. I educate myself going to clinics and I was trained by a reputable German dressage judge. I know get trained by another trainer who is amazing and learned not just more dressage but also on owning your own horse and my horses are never in stalls . When it gets super hot we do w fans here in Az during day but they are always out in their 2 herds . That is the right environment for my boys so don’t say I don’t know what I am talking about .

[@DressageHub]

You don't know what you are talking about.

[@carolannlocks]

@@DressageHub that is your “stock” answer for anyone that disagrees w u . Tell me ur credentials of dressage ? To add I don’t profess to know more than these fei judges either as I would be an idiot if I thought that . I just stated my comments based on my experiences and training that I have had in my life .

[@DressageHub]

You already informed me of my credentials and you claim you know what you are talking about so why would you ask? 🤣 🤣
