Quadrille

If you enjoy competing in dressage, why not try quadrille? The display is set to music with a team of four riders wearing themed costumes. The display should demonstrate horsemanship, but doesn’t necessarily have to be based on dressage movements.

Entries for the Quadrille will open 1 October 2024 and close 17 November 2024 or earlier if class is full.

Provisional schedule available here

Dressage to Music Section

The DTM section offers classes for both senior and junior members allowing competitors to ride from prelim up to Advanced Medium. This is a great opportunity to be creative and have fun in the dressage arena.
