Equestrian Performance

Equestrian performance refers to the skill and harmony between a rider and a horse during competitive events. It encompasses the horse's athletic ability, training, obedience, and responsiveness, as well as the rider’s technique, balance, and communication with the horse. Successful equestrian performance demonstrates precision, coordination, and mutual understanding, allowing the pair to execute complex movements and routines with grace and accuracy. Judging is based on factors like technique, control, efficiency, and presentation, reflecting both the horse’s natural ability and the rider’s expertise in guiding and supporting the animal throughout the performance.
