What are Iberian Traditions?

Iberian Traditions is the foundational equestrian category for disciplines and practices originating from the Iberian Peninsula. Riders use the silla vaquera and serreta noseband, wearing traje corto or traje de montar. Events are billed through formats such as Körung and Stutbuchaufnahme. Unlike Dressage or Western riding, this category focuses exclusively on practices developed within the Iberian Peninsula.
