The NAWD difference is VIRTUAL
Making education accessible and affordable is our mission! We’ve been offering virtual options for over 10 years – long before Covid19 disrupted the live show industry.
The NAWD difference is EDUCATION
The ability to review your video after you receive feedback from a certified judge makes learning possible without a trainer. While other virtual shows try to mimic the live show experience, we focus on education. Our judges spend around 30-40 minutes on your test. They make sure that they provide enough details so that you know why you received the score you did, and we even allow and encourage coaching comments, which is very much discouraged at live shows and other virtual show opportunities.
The NAWD difference is RIDER FOCUSED
At the bottom of every test, you will find collectives that are heavily weighted by rider performance……. things that you have 100% control over….. seat, hands, legs, and even geometry.
The NAWD difference is HORSE FOCUSED
We judge according to what’s right for the horse. We continuously educate ourselves on equine biomechanics and how dressage can help the horse live a longer, healthier life.
It’s about learning and growing with your partner!
You and your partner will gain valuable feedback either with or without a score (your choice)! If you are registered for TRAX, this score will qualify.
No office fees or non-member fees applicable to ride evaluations
READY
Set up your court at home or your trainer’s arena. All you need is a reasonably level area that is at least 50 x 100 feet for Ranch Horse, 55 x 110 for Dressage or Western Dressage.
