Dressage
In Dressage, horses or ponies and their drivers drive individually in specified patterns and gaits to demonstrate the skills, obedience, and development appropriate to their levels of training before the watchful eyes of one or more judges. Dressage develops and displays polish, discipline, and athleticism of equine and driver dancing together.
Organizers: See the most current Rulebook at the link to the right for Appendix DR-B in the Dressage Section for details on average driving time for tests and scheduling between tests.
