The Oldenburg Horse Breeders Association is inviting all Spanish dressage friends to join the first Dressage Symposium held on 29 April - 1 May 2016 including a two-day clinic and a mare performance test near Madrid. Well-known riders, judges and trainers will present how to school and present dressage horses on the way to high level.

This event will take place at the beautiful Yeguada Los Amadores, Finca Campillo de Yeguas.

The topic will be the training of young dressage horses on their way to Prix St. Georges.
We are very happy to present the former Olympic rider, German Team Member and 4-times Gold-Medal Winner Nicole Uphoff-Selke, the German Judge, Grand Prix Rider and trainer Ute von Platen, the international Spanish Judge, Juan Carlos Campos, and the trainer and head auction rider, Marcus Busch, from Germany. He also will ride some horses in the afternoon for demonstration.

They all will demonstrate the classical way of dressage training for upcoming high quality dressage horses with discussion in the morning of the 29th followed by riding lessons on young prospects in the afternoon. The event starts with a nice breakfast for all participants and will end in the afternoon with a cocktail and nice talks.

After the first day of the Symposium we are pleased to offer a 2 day clinic with Nicole Uphoff-Selke for Spanish riders and their horses.

At the same time the Oldenburger Verband will hold a mare performance test for 3- and 4 yrs old mares.

Our aim is to offer these events several times a year.

We are planning to go on with clinics, mare performance tests and a foal branding for your Spanish breeders.

The Finca Campillo de Yeguas will be our Oldenburg headquarter in Spain for the future and we are very thankful to Amador Alonso to offer his great facility.
