The Dressage Task Force, initiated by FEI – the governing body for all Olympic equestrian disciplines, will be spearheading the demonstration of dressage tests this week in the German city of Aachen.

The Dressage Task Force is attempting to make this sport more understandable to the public in order to gain interest. Aside from that, the task force is aiming to create a fairer environment among players. CHIO Aachen Show Director Frank Kemperman, the chairman of the task force, has already outlined the ideas and concepts of this upcoming event.

The officials also consulted with experts from other sporting fields such as figure skating and gymnastics. This is in order to get more insights as to how to implement the judging methods for dressage test competitions.

The venue of the dressage test is at the Deutsche Bank Stadium in Aachen. Qualified international judges have been invited to assess the performances of the dressage riders and give necessary feedback.
