Working Equitation: Play Days, Virtual Shows, & Clinics
Working Equitation is a new and growing horse sport that combines dressage and obstacles to develop the partnership between horse and rider. It can be ridden in any style of equipment and is open to horses of any breed and type. It is great cross training for riders from any discipline and it is FUN!
We have built a beautiful show regulation Working Equitation Course and are offering WE Play Days here at Vineyard Oak Dressage Training. If you would like to join us for a Play Day please contact us.
We offer educational clinics with the wonderfully knowledgeable Katrina Sanders and Carlos Carneiro. If you are interested in riding with our clinicians, please contact us for registration.

Working Equitation 2021 Play Days held at Vineyard Oak Dressage Training
WE Play Days are very casual in structure and currently designed for the Introductory and Novice Level horse and rider. Open to all riders and disciplines, it is a great way to try out WE and enhance the communication between you and your horse. Sessions last about two hours total and we focus on the "Ease of Handling" phase. We practice each obstacle chosen for that day and then take turns executing a fun small "course". On certain play days we practice the WE Dressage Tests.
PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED to reserve your attendance. No refunds unless your space can be filled. Rain date: November 21st
Play Day fee per horse/rider: $70. For faster registration, PayPal (Friends and Family option) payments to be sent to: vineyardoakdressage@yahoo.com
