A word from the president Colonel Carde
Tradition versus contemporary trends … yet again Colonel Carde
Among the news items relating to horse sport, there are several that we should pay attention to. To begin with, the interview in the magazine, L’Eperon, with Eugénie Angot; the symposium held in Saumur at the Ecole Nationale d’Equitation; the open letter to the FEI from Mr. d’Orgeix and Mr. d’Oriola; the visit of John Lyons to France and Belgium; and finally the long article by Gerhard Politz, in the American magazine, USDF Connection. What do these five events have in common, you might ask. In all of them, I see warnings, which we should not take lightly, and significant indications about the future direction of equitation.

Fundamental conditions for success must be created at the very start of equestrian activities to endow the aspiring equestrian with the suitable static position and its dynamic changes in motion. The balance of the ridden horse, therefore his lightness, depends on the correct distribution of his weight and the rider’s weight between the front and the back.
