"The object of dressage is the development of the horse into a happy athlete through harmonious education."

-Fédération Équestre Internationale (FEI)


The mission of the Northern Colorado Dressage Association (NCDA) is to foster a regional dressage community, dedicated to developing riders of all ages and abilities.


Our Meetings

The Northern Colorado Dressage Association meets every second Wednesday from January to May and then again September to November (with a fun year end party/meeting in December).

Social hour starts at 6pm for those who want to chit chat before getting down to business. Meeting kicks off at 6:30pm with an education presentation. Business agenda begins at 7pm.

Our membership meetings are open to prospective members as well.

As of 2026, meetings are in review for cadence and location. Check back at the end of May for details.

Northern Colorado Dressage Association welcomes Classical Dressage and Western Dressage.

Our schooling shows also offer eventer dressage tests. If you only have a jump saddle, please ride as an eventer or classical dressage test.

Our schooling shows often count for WADCO show awards in addition to NCDA year end awards.
