functional If horseback riding is a
language, then dressage is
French. Translated, it means
“training.” Just as this
romantic language rolls off
the tongue — the epitome
of elegance and grace —
dressage is a discipline that
focuses on the expression of
horse and rider’s harmony.
When done well, dressage
is a ballet. Meredith Wilson,
owner/trainer of Centerline
Stables, describes it as
simply “magical.”
