Dressage
Dressage competitions are usually held in the indoor arena with the warm up on a surfaced outdoor arena. We run both Affiliated and Unaffiliated Dressage shows. Unaffiliated shows include a No Canter Dressage test (copy found on this website) to encourage beginners and novice horses to have a go. If entries warrant, we split this class Lead Rein, Juniors (under 16’s) and Seniors.
