Working Equitation
Working Equitation (WE) in NZ is a relatively new but growing equestrian sport that combines elements of classical dressage, obstacle navigation, and occasionally cattle work. It emphasises harmony between horse and rider, responsiveness, agility, and versatility—qualities historically valued in working horses. Open to all breeds, riding styles (English or Western), and rider levels. WE in NZ is governed by Working Equitation NZ (WENZ)
Ready to ride? We’re hosting a Working Equitation competition on the 21st Nov at the Expo!!
