What Is Dressage?

The Basics

Dressage is a form of equestrian art that originated from classical horsemanship practices in France and Germany. The goal is to improve a horse’s responses and movements so that it appears to be dancing on command. It is performed in several different events including Olympics disciplines such as Grand Prix and Freestyle, as well as dance events like Paso Fino and Quadrille. In each event, horses and riders must perform a series of predetermined exercises such as the piaffe, collected trot, or half pass. The Spanish walk is one of the grand performances of dressage with the horse raising its discipline to a high point.

This move requires the horse to step using its hind legs more vigorously than usual in order to perform in a stylistic pattern. The horse’s movements must look elegant, yet strong, and remain balanced and even.
