SENIOR DRESSAGE UPDATE  (13 YRS + AIMING AT NOVICE/INTERMEDIATE AND OPEN TEAMS)

Winter is coming but so is dressage training for those die hard dressage riders hoping to improve their skills over the quieter season.

Helen Griffiths has kindly offered her services once again to train the ‘dippers’ , training sessions and dressage rallies to be held at John and Justine Gurvidi’s yard at Timsbury. (Many thanks as always john and Justine).
