About Us


Dressage Masterclass is dedicated to the promotion of dressage, presenting innovative events that showcase the sport to a wider audience. We aim to combine both theatre and show like atmospheres, whilst providing educational content for our audiences.

Dressage Masterclass aims to do this in different fun and innovative ways, aspiring to take the sport to new levels by providing our local talent with atmospheres experienced on the world stage.

To this end Dressage Masterclass has also created the Dressage Workshop Series, which delivers an educational program in addition to our signature showcase events, as we aim to assist our local riders with not only atmospheres seen on the world stage but also equip our riders with the principles, mindset and strategies to perform in that critical moment! Our vision is to create a swell of talent from the grass roots to the elite performer because together we all achieve more!
