Welcome to the EAADA Youth Ambassador Page!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your EAADA Youth Ambassadors, Alexa King and Maya Dugas<\/strong>, update this page each month with tips, tricks, helpful resources and important information for our youth dressage community (and adults too!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check back at the beginning of every month for new content, rider advice, horse care tips, community updates and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be Coachable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For October, one of the best tips we can give our youth riders is to be coachable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This applies to riders of every age and experience level. Even the best riders in the world continue to work with coaches who help them learn, improve and reach their goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay open to learning, ask questions and listen to the people who are there to help you. Treat your coaches, professionals and fellow riders with respect, and remember that every piece of feedback is an opportunity to become a better rider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFeedback helps you grow. It isn\u2019t criticism.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Healthy Barn Habits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Good Luck to Our National Riders!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of our Youth Ambassadors, Maya Dugas<\/strong>, has been invited to represent the national team. We are so excited for you, Maya, and will be cheering you on every step of the way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We would also like to wish all of our riders heading to Nationals the very best of luck. We can\u2019t wait to see you represent our community. Have an amazing experience, ride your best and enjoy every moment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
