The Future of Dressage
We truly feel that The Children of the Americas Dressage Invitational is unique and important, and we will continue to develop it into an event that young riders anticipate each year. The children that we meet through CADI are the future of dressage.
Introducing a New Generation
Part of our mission is not only to bring together young riders who have a passion for what they do, but also to introduce the discipline and beauty of dressage to new generations of riders from both North and South America.
