About us

Hi, I’m Nicola Smith. Welcome to Dressage Horse Training (DHT).

I’m a passionate dressage rider, constantly craving information on how I can improve. One lifetime isn’t enough to learn what there is to know about Dressage. There are so many different approaches to the riding and training of horses, and every horse is different with their own unique personalities, which is why I believe it’s important to gain knowledge from those who have been there.

With my other website Dressage Rider Training (DRT), I often get asked about horse training, but I’ve always felt it best that I stick to my lane and stay 100% focused on rider fitness and overall well-being off the horse.

So while I continue to strive to help riders out of the saddle, I wanted to find the best coaches I trust who can help you in the saddle with your horse training.

So our sister website DHT was born. I have curated trainers who I believe are exceptional at what they do, who have helped me on my dressage journey, and who I know can help you too.

Surrounding yourself with inspiration and tools to continue to grow is important. My goal is that you will be able to continue to improve your riding and your horse training abilities with the support and knowledge you find on Dressage Horse Training.
