Learn with Anky van Grunsven

Olympic dressage gold medallist Anky van Grunsven will be passing on her knowledge to eventing and dressage enthusiasts alike at two Professional Event Riders Association (PERA) open days this week.

Top event riders including Pippa Funnell pictured, Sarah Cutteridge and Rodney Powell will be taking part in the pre-season dressage clinic, which will take place at Waresley Park Stud in Bedfordshire on Tuesday 2 March and Wednesday 3 March.

The clinic promises to be exciting and informative, with spectators able to watch either full or half-day sessions. Those who have attended in previous years have benefited greatly from watching other riders training.

Future PERA clinics include a pre-season dressage training clinic with top international dressage judge Francis Verbeek, who is returning by popular demand on 16-18 March, and a show jumping training session with Albert Voorn from 5-7 March.
