About
Perth Dressage Club Inc. (PDC) is a sports club located in the City of Swan, Western Australia. Established with the aim of creating a non-competitive and supportive environment for its members to enhance and develop their dressage training and competition skills, PDC has been serving the equestrian community for eight seasons.
PDC is known for its commitment to providing members with the best opportunities to improve their skills. With each new year, the club aims to refine its club days to effectively benefit its members. PDC is based at the State Equestrian Centre, utilising the International arena as its home base. In case of unfavourable weather, the indoor arena is also available for use on selected days.
The club offers a range of activities to cater to the needs and interests of its members. These include training tests, training days, and clinics. In response to member suggestions, PDC has been running fewer one-day training days and increasing the frequency of clinics starting in 2014. This adjustment allows members to receive more in-depth instruction and guidance from experienced dressage trainers.
PDC's calendar for 2023 includes various home training days, clinic dates, and competition dates to the FEI standard. These events provide members with ample opportunities to practise and showcase their skills in a supportive and friendly environment. The club also organises in-house competitions, where members have the chance to test their abilities and compete against fellow riders.
To foster a sense of unity and pride among its members, PDC encourages the use of their official club uniform, which includes shirts and saddle cloths that can be purchased from the club. While wearing the PDC uniform is preferred, all members are expected to maintain a neat and tidy appearance, adhering to the dressage attire rules set by Equestrian Australia.
Membership at PDC comes with the expectation that all members actively contribute and assist throughout the year. This participation is not only encouraged but also a condition of club membership. By working together and supporting one another, PDC members create a vibrant and inclusive community that is passionate about dressage.
