SWEQ Club Practice Day
Sunday 28th August 2022
Spotlight on WEQ dressage tests (ANWEL dressage tests)
We have guest dressage instructor Lesley Fitton who will explain how to ride the new ANWEL dressage tests. Each rider will get a 20min individual lesson with Lesely (included in your entry fee). Choose your level and you can watch riders doing the same test as you. To get the maximum benefit from your time with Lesley it will help if you choose a dressage test prior to the day and make yourself familiar with the test. NOTE: we are now full for the dressage tests. You can still enter to do the obstacles only.
The Dressage levels are:
Level 2 - Introduction A & B (walk & trot only)
Level 3 - Preliminary A & B (walk, trot and canter)
Level 4 - Debutante 4A (counter canter)
OUR ADDRESS :335 Sackville Rd Wilberforce (coming from Windsor nearest cross street on left is IronBark Drive. Put your left indicator on and look for the Woodlands Park Pony Club sign and our purple sign underneath).
Our new venue is huge with plenty of float parking, a purpose built sand dressage arena and a large fenced in warm up area. There are 2 large grass areas - one set up with the obstacles and the other is availabe if you need space to develop your flat work.
