dressage judge

Through correct and systematic training, you and your horse should naturally progress up through the dressage levels. 

Like most riders, you’re probably keen to advance, but it’s important that you don’t rush your partnership and enter a competition at a level beyond your current capabilities. 

So, how do you gauge when it’s time to move your horse up to the next level in competition?

In this podcast episode, we’re going to look at the problems of progressing too quickly and too slowly, give you five steps to deciding if you and your horse are ready for the next level, and finish with five extra tips on competing at the next level up. 

(Please note: This is an updated and expanded version of our previous 'How to Know When to Move up to the Next Level in Dressage' episode.)
