Dressage Competition Mastery – Preliminary

Come behind the scenes as Vanessa rides her young horse at competitions.

Here we watch Vanessa ride through her preliminary test on her young mare.

Watch her complete the warm-up, talk us through her ‘on the spot’ decisions, and then discuss her test.

Learn how to structure your warm-up, build confidence with young horses, and even build a warm-up for a spooky hot horse on the day.

As part of the program, she delves into everything she does to prepare for competitions, including what she packs in the truck and secrets to learning and remembering tests.

Here is a wee snippet from the preliminary test.
