Dressage Pathway Program



USEF Dressage Chef d'Equipe & Development Coach, Christine Traurig

USEF Dressage High Performance Pathway Development Advisor & Youth Coach, George Williams

 

The Dressage Program Pathway seeks to deliver sustainable success and is focused on team podium finishes at Championships. The Emerging programs serve as the foundation of the Pathway, followed by the Development program and ultimately the Pre-Elite/Elite program.

In 2025, USEF will launch the Dressage Training Series, which previously included Program Pathway clinics, and will consist of USEF funded clinics open to all FEI levels, except for two clinics restricted to youth participants only. These clinics will be taught under the guidance of USEF coaching staff and Coaches Support Network members
