Please is there someone who can explain to me the dressage levels 123 etc you use?
I am used to the Dutch B L M Z ZZ National and then Prix St Georges , Intermediare, Grand Prix
I do not have the slightest notion on what level you compete over there [which movements etc]
Thanks
Jos

jos,

Prix St Georges and up are international tests and the same everywhere. For our National tests (Training, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th), see:

Some 4th level tests have the reputation of being more difficult than Prix St George (not that I expect to get there.)
Regards,
Wiley

Thanks Wiley it took me a while to respond.
1st matches about L 2nd M 3th Z and 4th ZZ [from time to time more difficult then Prix St Georges you are right]
Even if we do not reach this point it is nice to know what you should see performed
