Axel Steiner, FEI O Judge


Axel Steiner on Changes in Dressage Tests by Patti Schofler
Buzz about the 2011 national dressage tests has already begun. To stir the discussion, we caught up with Axel Steiner at Sue Curry Shaffer's Fairwind Farm in Santa Rosa, California, to chat about the changes which will be effective December 2010.

Axel has contributed to shaping dressage testing for over 20 years. A FEI "O" and U.S. "S" judge, he has served on the USEF dressage committee for many years and this year chaired the test writing committee. His perspective is broad and expansive and he brings to the table a willingness to try new philosophies, but only if they benefit the horse.

The committee has found over the years that the tests serve as an important training tool which affects the direction of the sport. "We have learned that if something is not in a test, it's often not practiced. So we have to put tools riders need in their tool boxes. For example, the stretchy circle. When we introduced it, people thought we were crazy; they were sure the horses would run away. It's a very intricate, important training tool and now people use it more in training," he explains.
