Dressage

The Bucks County Horse Park offers a variety of competitions for the dressage enthusiast, both USEF/USDF recognized and schooling shows. The Dressage at the Bucks County Horse Park Series hosts four USEF/USDF recognized dressage shows. BCHP offers numerous opportunities for schooling dressage shows including three Saturday Schooling Dressage Shows. Tuesday Evening Dressage runs every other Tuesday May through August. We also offer Schooling Dressage shows in conjunction with our Schooling Combined Test every April and October. Competitors also have the option to ride dressage only at all our Schooling Horse Trials; please see the Eventing page for more information.

Tuesday Evening Dressage (TEDS)

Shows are held bi-weekly every summer beginning in May. Dressage tests offered include USDF Introductory through Second Level, as well as, USEA eventing tests, and Western Dressage tests. Information, guidelines, and tests for Western Dressage are available through WWDA. Year-end awards are offered at BCHP for the TED series. TED shows are recognized by ESDCTA for their year-end awards. These afternoon/evening mid-week shows offer a format unique for dressage shows: on-site registration. This is a very popular show series; pre-registration is not required, however, calling ahead to reserve your time is recommended. Tests are run in multiple rings from 2:00 to 7:30 PM and registration begins at 1:30pm

Dressage Schooling

Several schooling shows are offered in addition to the Tuesday Evening Dressage series. Tests include Introductory through Fourth level. Select shows also offer a Fix a Test where the competitor rides the test once, then the judge critiques the test before the competitor rides the test for a second time. Fix a Tests are a great training tool!
