I don't think there are any restrictions on the type of saddle you use. Bits are a different matter. Make sure the bit your using is allowed. Although a dressage saddle will help put you in the correct position, if you don't have one don't let it stand in your way. Keep riding and practicing. Later on as you move up in competition, there will be time to think about changing saddles. Have fun.
