The judges need the backsides kicked, at the end of the day if they did not score these ppl with high scores it would not still be happening!

FEI should promote the highest ethical standards for dressage. To allow rolkur to continue is an international disgrace.

Its about the give.. not the take or the demand. These riders should be suspended from competition for a period to drive home the msg. Dressage is an art not a sport. Its incredible what ppldo . Hell for horses. Dressage is a sport of equine abuse today not a form of art.. fluent and originating from a heritage of war horses.it is anpart of the artof wars of the pastand anpresent day ground training which can make a horse. Today we break them and let them suffer. I would not show dressage today. Only school for my ponys better abolity and strength. Ever consider the good riders with thw give in them dont compete because of the mentality and abuse in the aport today?

As our understanding of equine health and well-being grows, practices should change. There is no excuse for clinging to 'traditions' such as this that cause pain and suffering. People will eventually find out the truth - and Dressage will suffer in the long term. It's time to act now to stop this cruelty.

Ask any horse physio, this is not good for the horse, apart from it being so cruel and uncomfortable
