The University of Connecticut Dressage Team
Our Mission Statement
The UConn Dressage Team is a club sports team dedicated to providing opportunities for students to further their skills in the discipline of Dressage, as well as promoting learning and growth in the equestrian community. Our team consists of hard-working and driven riders with varying levels of experience. We pride ourselves on being a tight-knit community of passionate riders working to better themselves in this sport. We compete regionally in the Intercollegiate Dressage Association (IDA) Region A/B, hosting and traveling to shows throughout New England. We have consistently sent students to IDA Nationals, with competitors placing in the top of their classes.

Just like our horses, our tack is an investment. With the help of KL Select, our riders have the opportunity to invest in products that will last for years to come.
We greatly appreciate this partnership with KL Select and everything it brings for our team and members!
