Workshop: Dressage (Sign Up & Deposit)
December 10-14
Our final installment of the 2025 workshop series! Often times we end up in the indoor more than usual during the colder months. This can lead to reduced motivation and lost ground in our riding. The Dressage Workshop is a great opportunity to shift your training focus to some winter-friendly homework. We hope it will inspire some motivation for keeping your indoor training engaging and productive both for you and your horse. Through dressage you will be building the perfect foundation for success in yourself and your horse for the next year!
As with each of our workshop options, you can expect to receive quality hands-on, individualized instruction in addition to insightful lectures and applicable demonstrations. Practical sessions will include both ridden work but also ground work that helps us build a truly classical dressage foundation. There is plenty to be excited about in this week of intensive instruction. You can find the full schedule listed below.
One of our favorite pieces of these workshops is the camaraderie built among the attendees. There is nothing like being surrounded by people equally as excited to expand their education and enjoying the Icelandic Horse together. We will be including a group dinner Saturday night that we hope you'll be able to attend!
Don't have your own horse, but still hoping to participate? No problem! Just let us know in the form below and we can provide a horse for you to lease for the duration of the workshop
