DJTF WORKSHOPS
The Dressage Judges Taskforce has several workshops and seminars planned for the second half of 2016. This year the focus is on working not only with judges but also with coaches and riders to develop an open communication within the sport. The workshop with Christoph Hess promoted the idea that everyone can get involved in dressage and enjoy what it has to offer from the basic training of the horse to top level competition.
For more information on any of these upcoming seminars please email elaine_green@westnet.com.au. If you have a horse competing at the required levels and would like to be included as a demo rider at a seminar please email through an expression of interest.
