Amazing Masterclass at Hartpury Dressage Festival
Thursday, June 01, 2006
Hartpury College have enlisted an impressive line up for their forthcoming Gala Evening performance at this year’s International Festival of Dressage, on Saturday 8th July.
In addition to the International CDI Grand Prix to music class and the Premier League Grand Prix Freestyle class, the organisers have arranged a spectacular line-up for the Masterclass. Featuring top International judges Stephen Clarke and Germany’s Christoph Hess, and Olympic rider Carl Hester, the demonstration will enlighten the audience to dressage from the judge’s perspective.
The Hartpury Festival of Dressage will run for five days from Wednesday 5th to Sunday 9th July 2006. The event will encompass all aspects of dressage including national Premier League, FEI International Para Equestrian and FEI International classes.
The Festival has also been selected to host the first ever FEI Para Equestrian judge training seminar. With the International Paralympic Committee recently passing control of all Paralympic equestrian sport to the FEI, this seminar will be the inaugural training event for international judges. They will be joined by national able-bodied judges attending the Festival for British Dressage’s training seminar. Judges will benefit from expert guidance from several international judges including Stephen Clarke, Christoph Hess, Peter Holler, Trond Asmyr and Jane Kidd.
Tickets to the Gala Evening are just £10 per person to include Saturday daytime attendance. General entry to the show is just £10 per car, per day to include all occupants, or £30 per car for the duration of the show.
