Really, Dressage Hub?

Ahhhhh priceless watching this unfold and the delusions just get grander and grander. Seems that petition has recieved over 500 signatures now. She’s also thanking her ‘haters’ for increasing the traffic on her page but I see her followers and page likes have declined.
It seems because someone has reported her to the bigwigs at Facebook that she thinks she might get a job out of it :encouragement::congratulatory: Hilarious! Because a social media site as huge as Facebook would want to hire someone who spews hate and fake news :rolleyes:

Cesar Torrente is allegedy her “ask a judge” columnist. Perhaps someone should reach out to that person. How do we find out who her “advertisers” are?

I don’t think he still is. That “Ask a Judge” section on the dh website is gone. I see no other mentions about him related to dressage hub.

Then she removed it after I posted this…because it was there when I posted…

did you take it down, SW? Are you going to go after CT now?

Yes, she took it down. What about your “ask a trainer” forum? Who are your expert trainers?

So apparently she is reading here, and apparently she was concerned enough to remove CT’s name. Perhaps the house of cards is crumbling.

Yes it was just taken down as it is still in the cache on a google search… search “dressagehub.com” and “judge” and you can see the recent history. I have a screen shot, but it won’t upload… I don’t understand while as it is a png which is an allowed file… but… :cool:

Or perhaps CT asked her to take it down because he doesn’t want his name associated with psychodramas? We’ll never know…

I thought that I had read this entire thread, whew, but I don’t recall reading why videographers are not angry that SW is stealing credit for their videos…or are they? Can they do anything about it? Who can they complain too? Does SW attempt to insinuate that she and her crew (?) filmed all of these shown on her site? What does it take for a featured speaker or rider to have the video removed from her site or do most people appreciate the publicity? Lastly, is it difficult for ownership of videos to be proven without going to court?

I’m wondering if Robert Dover is aware of all that is going on. He seems to be featured prominently on her website. He might not be so thrilled - especially as I believe Heather Blitz was training with him at the time that the video of Paragon was filmed and He had a long coaching relationship with Jaccoma as well. Does anyone here know him?

I can’t answer specifically what Rovert thinks but no, I don’t think she asks riders or horses–when I asked her if she had permission to film at his clinics she said she didn’t need any, and it’s a public venue. This was on another forum. She got really snippy with me so I started avoiding her after that- the crazy started showing. I thought it was in poor taste to sneak in the corner and take videos of all these riders, it’s not respectful just because it’s not “illegal”

Interestingly, it often is against the rules of clinics to record. Because even “public venues” are usually rented by private groups, and audience is limited and agrees to a code of conduct–which often includes no video tapes (because clinics often charge for video services).

So she may very well have been violating the terms for auditing/spectating these clinics.

I am sure Mr. Dover would have the same reaction to being associated with SW as he was with NP!

But inn the meantime she’s using the petition to drum up sympathy with her usual BS about being “bullied” and saying it was started by someone who owes her money…blah blah blah. And here are enough unknowing people out there who don’t know the back story behind the videos she steals and who don’t see the poison she posts on her personal page that they are sending her messages of support. It kind of makes me want to gag.

Besides the fact I just have a low tolerance for people who lie, cheat, bully and take advantage of people, I really hate that she gives Dressage riders a bad name and she gives Canadians a bad name!

What petition? The one to remove dressage hub from Facebook? Where is she saying this?

Can the screen grabs of her own bullying comments here be posted to the petition Facebook page? So that those SW’s unknowing followers who take a quick look at the petition see what she really is?

I am starting to not care for Dressage Hub’s videos. I liked the informational ones on the “how to’s”. But recently over the past month they have been negative. I used to get good information, motivation and tips from the videos.

You’re in luck! She stole them all, so all of that great content can be found on each actual owner’s pages.

I bet 30,000 of her Facebook likes are completely fake. You can buy Facebook likes for as low as 1000 likes for about $9. She barely gets a hundred likes on a post. No way she has over 30,000 followers.
