Wellington Dressage Classic Show Recap | The Amateur's Advantage

Episode Title: Wellington Dressage Classic Show Recap

Episode Summary This week on The Amateur’s Advantage, Laura Ashley recaps her weekend at the Wellington Dressage Classic and unpacks the highs, challenges, and lessons learned from showing two very different horses. She dives into how classical dressage principles like patience, forward energy, and building confidence helped her guide each horse through the show atmosphere and how you can apply the same tools in your own rides, no matter what discipline you ride. What You’ll Learn Why breaking tests into chunks during schooling builds confidence and clarity for both horse and rider. Forward energy and relaxation are universal tools—whether you’re in a dressage arena, a western pen, or a hunter ring. Progress often comes from compromise, patience, and celebrating small wins, not just chasing perfection.
