Emerging Dressage Athlete Program

The Emerging Dressage Athlete Program (EDAP) was developed by Olympians Lendon Gray, Robert Dover, and Courtney King-Dye, who are combining their talents and expertise in a joint effort to find, help educate, and develop talented youth to become the international dressage riders and trainers of the future. The program, for dressage competitors under the age of 21, is meant as a stepping-stone from participating at the grassroots level to climbing the long ladder on the way to representing the United States in international competitions and/or becoming a successful professional.
