The terms "eventing" and "dressage" describe different disciplines in equestrian sports. Eventing is a combined competition encompassing three phases—dressage, cross-country, and show jumping—testing a horse and rider's versatility and skill. Dressage, on the other hand, emphasizes a horse's ability to perform a series of predetermined movements with precision and grace. Both disciplines require extensive training and demonstrate the strong partnership between horse and rider in competitive equestrianism.
