Entrigue Consulting is excited to announce it will host British dressage rider Carl Hester for a two-day Masterclass in California’s beautiful Temecula wine country on 8 - 9 November 2025.
In addition to his own competition success as a multiple medalist, European champion and seven-time Olympian, Hester is renowned as a world-class trainer and mentor. He has produced and coached many of Britain’s top riders, including his teammates--notably securing a Team Gold Medal at the 2012 London Olympics. As a rider, trainer, and advocate for the sport, Carl remains at the forefront of British dressage, inspiring equestrian worldwide to pursue excellence with compassion. Carl is looking forward to sharing his training techniques with the California audience this fall.
Carl Returns to Temecula
“Lovely to be invited back to California for a Masterclass, I have very fond memories from my last visit there, I am looking forward to helping riders from juniors to Grand Prix, so hopefully a cross section for all levels to enjoy," said Hester.
In this unique program, showcasing his holistic approach to horse welfare and ridden work, Carl will share his training through the levels of development, from young horse to Grand Prix.
“We are thrilled to be putting together another event of this caliber for the US dressage community,” says Entrigue CEO, Kelly Artz, “Carl is one of GOAT’s in our sport, and we are excited to have him for a dressage educational event that will inspire.”

Pattie Thompson spoke of the event, “It was an amazing weekend. I came from Wellington, FL and it was so worth the trip! This was one of the best masterclasses and clinics I have attended!”
Carolyn Miller from Colorado said, “You put this event in to our history books of great equestrian education and inspiration. I drove out from Colorado, stayed in my RV at Galway Downs, had a fantastic time, met old friends, made new ones, but the most significant part was that she was such a prime world class athlete, everything we hoped for, center stage so kudos to you for having the vision and doing it so well.”
“We were really proud to put on a fantastic event in 2023 with Ingrid, and hope to do these types of events every year. The west coast has a large dressage community that is very enthusiastic about training education and we are honored to be able to contribute to community in this way. We look forward to putting on a great event for amateurs, professionals and sport enthusiasts to all enjoy! Of course, it takes a village, and we are very grateful to the support from our fantastic sponsors, Galway Downs, and the California community. We look forward to seeing everyone this November for what we have no doubt will be an amazing program with Carl.”
