Idaho Dressage and Eventing Association

Idaho Dressage and Eventing Association IDEA is dedicated to the growth of the equestrian community through the promotion of events. We are a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, non-profit organization.

IDEA’s membership base is diverse and ranges from beginner riders to upper-level competitors in both Dressage and Three-Day Eventing. At its core, the organization is a support system for the promotion of educational and competitive opportunities for these two English disciplines primarily within the state, but also nationwide. We advocate for the lifelong improvement and wellbeing of our members

and their horses by encouraging active participation in our programs and events. The IDEA is a General Membership Organization (GMO) of the United States Dressage Federation (USDF). This designation provides multiple USDF resources to IDEA members, including a GMO membership and its benefits. We invite anyone interested in our community to attend a general meeting, clinic, competition, or other supported program. Or, you can simply get in touch with any questions you may have. We look forward to meeting you! Dressage is often called the "ballet" of equestrian sports. Dressage means the gradual harmonious development of the horse's physical and mental condition, with the aim being to achieve both the improvement of the horse's natural gaits and the perfect understanding of it's rider. This work is done "on the flat". There is no jumping of fences in dressage training. Three-Day Eventing is known as the triathalon of equestrian sports, encorporating the disciplines of dressage, cross-country jumping (galloping over solid obstacles) and show-jumping.
