The Western Dressage Association of Arizona was founded with the vision of bringing together riders who share a passion for blending the traditions of Western riding with the principles of classical dressage. Established in 2006, the organization has grown to become a key player in advancing Western Dressage throughout the state, offering a variety of events, clinics, and educational opportunities for riders of all ages and skill levels. The Association's roots lie in the desire to create a community where both seasoned professionals and newcomers alike can learn, compete, and connect. Over the years, WDAA Arizona has played an instrumental role in promoting the sport, supporting its riders, and preserving the values of Western horsemanship, while embracing the benefits of dressage training to improve the overall partnership between horse and rider.
