“I am very excited to be seeing my Canadian friends again during the EC Dressage Levy Performance Advantage Symposium,” said Dover. “My goal is always to have people going home feeling they have learned something new and had a lot of fun, whether as a rider or an auditor. In my heart, though, I truly hope that each person there will have an ‘Aha!’ moment that might actually change their lives on or even off their horse.”

In addition to Dover, the Symposium will offer educational sessions tailored to Canadian dressage enthusiasts at no cost to participants who contributed to the 2019 Dressage Levy. Attendance hours will also count towards EC coaching certification maintenance.
