Peter is an International Dressage Trainer of world-wide repute. He runs regular clinics throughout Britain as well having taught in America, Spain, Germany and Dubai.
The emphasis on dressage training both horse and rider is based on many years experience and a balance of beliefs and principals that has put Peter Maddison-Greenwell up there amongst “the worlds top dressage trainers in his field”, as quoted in the book Pathfrinder Dressage by Penny Hillsden.
His philosophy and personality, combined with a sound depth of knowledge in training dressage and riding ability makes him absolutely unique in the equestrian world. He is one of the few people who crosses over with ease from Performer to Dressage Trainer in all aspects of dressage as well as Doma Vaquera and Garrocha.
Peter is equally happy helping giving dressage lessons to the classical and competition dressage rider as well as performers and display riders, in the ever growing world of Equestrian Theatre of which Peter has been one of its earliest pioneers
