    Dressage is the main sport catered to here at Oak Hills Stable. Dressage is referred to as the "classical" form or riding, and is a great foundation for any rider going into any sport.

    Dressage (a French term, most commonly translated to mean "training") is a path and destination of competitive horse training, with competitions held at all levels from amateur to the Olympics. Its fundamental purpose is to develop, through standardized progressive training methods, a horse's natural athletic ability and willingness to perform, thereby maximizing its potential as a riding horse. Dressage is occasionally referred to as "Horse Ballet" (Wikipedia "Dressage")
