passion has been he development and training of dressage
horses.
Robin is a FEI level competitor and a USDF Bronze, Silver,

Above left: Gale Browning and Winterstern 6. Gale shares,
“We are so happy we got to go to this camp! Everyone was
supportive of each other and the lessons were fantastic. It’s
a great low stress environment where you can improve your
skills. Many thanks to Patty Keim and Sally Burton for mak-
ing it happen. “
Below left: Mick Vonk attended camp with Teyha, her 8
year old gaited spotted saddle mare 14.3 hh. Teyha is Native
American meaning “precious” and she is a Dark Bay Tobiano
with Medicine Hat. Mick says “Teyha came into my life Oct
2020. Broke at 3, and only under saddle with 1 year of trail
riding she stood in pasture for 3 years because owner didn’t
have time for her. I started riding her, working on develop-
ing her muscle tone and topline by exposing to her dres-
sage. Teyha lives at home on our 6 acre ranch with my 25 yr
old big hearted OTTB Shorty in Altoona, FL.
I started riding 20 yrs ago at Rocky River Stables with Valley
Riding Inc. Participated in schooling shows with NODA, CADS
and Dream On with Shorty. Seven years ago we moved to
our 30 acre horse farm in western NY and then to FL.
Teyha and I trail ride 2-3 times a week and train 2-3 times a
week. Currently training consist of ground work, ground
poles, arena work, lessons, drill team practice, or riding with
friends at local covered arena. We belong to Altoona Trail
Riders Club, trail riding and camping all over state of FL. So
many beautiful preserves with lovely sand trails.
Mosie Welch invited us to camp. We are here in Ohio until
Oct 10.
Camp was a wonderful experience for Teyha’s “baby green
mind”. Everyone was patient with us, especially being a gait-
ed horse. I participated in all the lectures, yoga with Jill, les-
son with Danielle introducing bend, ground pole lesson with
Laura learning straightness and where our feet are, lesson
with Barb engaging our back end, trail ride with Deb and
Tassie, ride a test with Robin Birk who helped us by encour-
aging us to introduce exercises to improve gait on curves
and circles. We stayed at KOA. Teyha improved each day
finally being comfortable with horses coming and going leav-
ing her alone in arena. Her willingness to learn and find re-
laxation each step of the way was amazing. Everyone was so
nice which made the experience extra special.
Camp was a place that meets and greets you and your horse
where you are at from a baby green mind horse to the expe-
rience of an I-1 dressage horse.”
NODA News 2021, Page 12 Continued page 13Above left: Name: Kathi Agens attended camp with Mercedes
aka Sadie, her 21 year old, 14.2 hh, Dark Buckskin, Quarter Horse,
mare. Kathi says, “We are from Erie, PA and call Three Point Farm
home. Its a wonderful boarding stable with super trainers, Karen
Dietrick and Wendy Skelli. We take a lesson per week and
participate in clinics, both at the farm and outside locations. I have
been riding as an adult for about 10 years, and have had a couple
of other horses that didn't suit me. My little Sadie is not the
perfect dressage horse, but I trust her with my life. We can go
anywhere and do practically anything because she is unflappable,
even though she definitely has her own opinions.
I rode a little as a child, and went to Miracle Mountain summer
camp. Horsey activities all day, which is why I was so interested in
Adult Dressage Camp, hoping to re-create my childhood fun. And
it did! I took away valuable lessons from Barb, Danielle, Robin and
Laura. Met great new people and greeted old friends. I took part
in all of the activities offered, from yoga to lectures. I missed the
farrier speak, because I was so tired that day. I won't miss
anything next year! I loved the pole work with Laura and will be
using the information at home.
In fact, I am already planning for next year's camp and can't wait
to do it again”
Middle left: Jamie Chacaltana attended camp with KC DD First
Frost aka Bear who is a 25 yr old, 15 hands high, Paint gelding.
Jamie tells us that, “ Bear and I have been together 23 years ,
we’ve trained all over and conquered so many disciplines. He has
been slightly retired over the last five years. We really enjoy travel-
ing and camping.
When I I heard about this adult camp I thought wouldn’t it be
great for us to clean up and get back in there working together
again. Camp was absolutely wonderful with great people. They
were so many activities and educational opportunity’s. Bear and I
learned a lot and took home a lot of neat tips on how to connect
better. We absolutely look forward to next year!”
Bottom Left: Mosie Welch and Aleksandr Robyn, aka Alaska, a 14.1 hh,
half Welsh/Oldenburg, Chestnut, gelding enjoyed every minute of camp!
Mosie says, “it’s great to be with people who want soak up knowledge
about dressage, experience lessons with quality clinicians, and enjoy all
camp has to offer. Together for four years, it’s been a journey transi-
tioning Alaska from a kids hunter/jumper pony to a dressage guy - but
camp 2021 solidified that we are on our way.
With Danielle Menteer and Barb Soukup (both L Judges) I got help with
my position and aids in specific movements. LOTS of homework! My
most happy camp moment was a little gem from Robin Birk, USEF ‘r’
dressage judge, during the ride-a-test. Robin specifically remembered
judging us before (“needs to go forward”) and remarked how forward
and willing Alaska has become. OH, HAPPY DAY!
Thank you to our Camp Directors, Sally Burton and Patty Keim, and to
NODA for supporting dressage camp for adults! I’m looking forward to
seeing everyone in 2022!
NODA News 2021, Page 13 Continued page 14Above left: Patty Keim and Java Joe, aka Java, an 18 year old, 17.1
hands, Bay, TB/Perch cross, gelding are currently showing at the I-1 lev-
el at USEF/USDF recognized shows. Patty is one of the NODA Adult
Dressage Camp Directors and Patty shares, “ I am the co-creator of the
camp along with my good friend Sally Burton.
Java and I have been together for 12 years. For the first 6 years I
evented him up to the Novice level and then I decided to turn purely to
dressage. I have been enjoying dressage ever since and have competed
up through the Intermediate I level. My passion is doing freestyles
with him because they are just so fun and you get to express yourself
more than in a classical dressage test.
I took part in the dressage lessons, the ride-a-test, and the multiple ed-
ucational sessions we offered. I also worked Java in a round pen to
work on voice command transitions, rode daily on the galloping track to
cool out after lessons, and did some trail riding for fun. All of the in-
structors at camp honed in our “normal” training issue which is that
Java needs to be more active in his hind legs. We worked on excises to
help make him more supple and quicker behind.
NODA’s adult dressage camp is for EVERY level of rider. If you have
ever wanted to attend a riding camp this would be a great one to try!”
Below left: Julie Beatty and Hilltops Maxamillion aka "Lucky", a 9 year
old, 16 hand, Chestnut, Saddlebred, gelding. Julie says, “ I work for a
wonderful non profit organization called Youthtowne as a riding instruc-
tor. Our lesson program focus on youth/teens. Lucky came to us to be a
lesson horse through an auction house holding pen and was listed to
ride and drive. Definitely not the best route to find a lesson horse, but
last year was tough and with lessons closed for Covid I had some extra
time. When I got his papers and tracked down his original owner/
breeder I found out he was barely halter broke at 8 yrs. old. They had
given Lucky to a man who said he wanted a trail horse but he was at an
auction about 2 weeks later. Last spring we started from square one
with a traumatized critter and it has been all about gaining trust and
confidence.
I found NODA by accident this past January and loved the opportunities
they offer, so I joined. I was excited to take Lucky to camp and give him
new exposures in a low key environment. Lucky handled camp wonder-
fully. Despite our rocky start he's going to be a great addition to the
lesson program with a bit more mileage.
Lucky and I rode in all of the lessons, and I audited as many as possi-
ble. There were good Q and A’s with the clinicians and it was awesome
to get their perspective on different topics. I would love to have partici-
pated in Yoga, but I had ride time conflicts.
The biggest "lightbulb moment" is to ride the horse I have now and not
the horse I started under saddle last fall. He was so terrified of every-
thing and I was stuck in that mode. He now has the confidence to take
on bigger challenges and do really well and I need to help him do that. I
Can't wait until next year!! Thanks to NODA and the hard work of Sally
and Patty for organizing the camp!”
NODA News 2021, Page 14 Continued page 15Above left: Maria Temperini has attended all
three NODA Adult Dressage Camps and attend-
ed in 2021 with Detour aka The Flying Dutchman,
a 13 year old, 17 hh, Bay, Dutch Warmblood,
Gelding. Maria is an eventer and shares, “Detour
and I compete at Training level in Eventing; we
both love to jump, but he needs those flat work
fundamentals to be successful and stay sound.
I’ve been in all the camps since NODA started
doing it in 2019; I was always envious of the kid’s
camps and I’m so glad someone finally thought of
doing something like that for adults.
As I was also riding my other horse for the Stone
Gate Mini Trial, I missed a few of the lectures, but
I did all my dressage lessons, took yoga in the
morning, and got treated with Magnawave ses-
sion (a blessing!).
Most of the feedback I received in my dressage
lessons were around ‘not rushing.’ I’m so used to
the speed of jumping that I push the horse in the
dressage test like it’s a ‘jump-off.’ I need to take
my time and slow down.
As usual, it was a pleasure to be at camp! Looking
forward to next year!”
Below, left: Beth Baryon and Pippin, age 16, a Buckskin Pinto,
grade horse attended camp in 2019 and 2021. Beth tells us that,
“Pippin and I train and compete in dressage mostly in central Ohio,
but enjoy our annual excursions to visit our friends to the north. We
were lucky to attend both NODA events at Pure Gold this year.
I participated in NODA's dressage camp in 2019 and loved it. I was
eager to work with all 4 trainers, two of whom I've had the pleasure
of riding with before, but I also love the idea of dedicating days to
improving my riding with like-minded individuals. It was basically a
vacation to focus on dressage training, which is what I like to do
when I have time off anyways.
Besides the training, I was also able to do Yoga on Saturday morning
and take a trail ride on Saturday afternoon. My horse and I don't trail
ride all that often, but I love it, so it was a special treat. And although
I do yoga videos at home, I've never attended a live class. It was won-
derful!
The trainers did a lot to increase my understanding of straightness,
contact, and collection. A lot of that had to do with feel and is a bit
hard to write about. An easier thing to describe is the work I did with
Barb Soukup on two different movements from the first level test 3.
Barb taught me to half halt and rebalance over X during the trot
lengthening and to leg yield a stride or two to get a nice change of
bend before picking up the right lead canter across the diagonal.
Both will do a lot to improve my tests at our next show!”
I am so thankful for the friendships that I have grown and made
through my two years at NODA's dressage camp!

The Chronicle Of The Horse had a wonderful article about
The Dressage Foundation's Century Club and their 500th
member, Helene DelleChiaie, and Finnian's Chase!. In the
article, Helene was quoted in saying, “The Century Club
inspires young people to realize that there are things they
can achieve as a senior. It’s never too late, and you’re never
New or Renewing too old.”
Members The Century Club recognizes dressage riders and horses
Kimberly Shepard whose combined ages total 100 years or more. Horse and
rider perform a test of any level at a show (schooling or
Donald Brown recognized) or event and are scored by a dressage judge or
Britta Nelson professional. Western Dressage riders are also welcome to
Christian Morten Nelson join the Century Club. Many of us started our riding careers
Hadleigh Humphreys later in life and worry we may not have a long riding career.
The Century Club show us all that riding is not just for the
young, but everyone.
NODA currently has 275 members According to The Dressage Foundation website, The Century
Club was formed at The Dressage Foundation in 1996, at the
for 2021 suggestion of Max Gahwyler (CT), who with his horse Prinz
Eugen, became team # 2 in the Century Club (pictured at the

and has long-term goals and benefits.
The Dressage Foundation’s says of the Century Club,
“The Century Club ride has evolved into a serious endeavor
that encourages and rewards our older senior riders. The
rider need not show everything at their level of ride, but it is
important to show that rider and horse work well together.
And while we stress the serious nature of riding a test, we
want all senior riders for the Century Club to have fun! While
this club has no dues, no meetings and no agenda, except to
enjoy the occasion, many do keep in contact with the
Foundation and with each other by email and phone. TDF
will welcome your financial support to help with expenses of
the Century Club News, and the personal plaque and ribbon
that we present to each Century Club member.
