GET THE DRESSAGE PRACTICE RUG
PRACTICE YOUR DRESSAGE TESTS FROM ANYWHERE
Portable, durable 8'x2.5' rug printed with a full dressage court lets you conveniently practice your test at home, at the barn or at the shows!
We've all been there. You're in the middle of your test, everything feels great — and then your mind goes completely blank. Is it working trot at C, or is that the canter transition? As an amateur rider managing my own training, I know how hard it is to find time in the saddle to rehearse. And when you do get out there, the last thing you want is to forget your test.
No more forgetting your test—mid ride!

What riders are saying
REAL RIDERS. REAL RESULTS.
Such a clever idea. I've been doing dressage for fifteen years and I wish I'd had this sooner. My trainer even asked me where I got it. Everyone at the barn wants one!

SEE IT IN ACTION
I've been practicing my tests at home for a long time now—pretending to walk trot and canter the pattern next to make-shift letter markers in a home-made arena that was not to scale. So I finally designed an affordable, portable rug to scale that makes practicing easy!
About DIY Dressage
My Journey from Training Level to Grand Prix
Hi, I'm Lisa. I'm not a professional trainer — I'm an amateur rider just like you. But, I've been riding and training dressage for over 20 years with some of the best coaches and Olympians. In late 2025, I imported a 4-year-old KWPN gelding with a big dream: to bring him all the way from Training Level to Grand Prix through a self-directed training program.
DIY Dressage is my diary where I'm documenting our progress — the breakthroughs, the setbacks, and training tips. It's also where I share creative solutions like this practice rug!
“With the right tools, guidance and inspiration, there's so much you can do yourself to advance your dressage journey.”
