The "Flawless Flying Changes Masterclass" taking place on Wednesday 18th December at London International Horse Show will feature Paris 2024 Olympic Games team gold medallist and individual FEI Eventing World Champion, Ros Canter.

The hour-long Masterclass, presented by British Olympic Dressage rider and World Championship silver medallist Richard Davison, promises to be an invaluable learning experience for equestrians of all levels, offering insights into the art of flying changes – a fundamental skill across multiple equestrian disciplines. 

Richard will be joined by 2024 Defender CCI5* Burghley winner Ros, along with two additional elite riders from the realms of both Show Jumping and Dressage whose names are soon to be revealed. Together, Richard and the esteemed trio of riders will offer a unique, multidisciplinary perspective on mastering flying changes, from simple changes to advanced tempi movements.

Richard Davison is a familiar face at London International Horse Show, having competed at the Show for over 20 years, a tenure during which he has also represented Great Britain at numerous Championships. 

“I am thrilled to be back at London International to present this new Masterclass” says Richard “Flying changes are absolutely vital in all areas of equestrian sport, and we are going to break them down in a practical and beneficial way for every rider in the audience. Working alongside Ros and two other experts will, I hope, make this a truly dynamic and educational experience.”

The ‘Flawless Flying Changes Masterclass’ aims to provide riders with a comprehensive understanding of how to perform immaculate flying changes – from straightforward single changes to the more challenging one-time tempi movements. The session will not only showcase the skills of world-class riders but will also offer clear demonstrations and step-by-step explanations designed to elevate riders’ flatwork and dressage capabilities.
