They are so gorgeous! You are blessed! The type of showing would probably be called conformation or halter classes here, and that plus dressage is what I would love to get into eventually :D
Then it's probably the conformation and halter classes, I show mine in. :)
I'm a really bad rider myself, so no dressage classes for me. ;)
I honestly have grown up mostly riding western or bareback, due to the horses I was able to ride or afford as a teenager, but have always had a passion for English riding since I was little. All of my friends or instructors always thought I had come from formal English or dressage training from the way my seat is and light hands, among other factors, when they first watched me ride. So this is my chance to finally buy a dressage trained mount, and Gypsys at the same time xD
In my place most people learn English riding from the beginning, and very few take up western later, but I've always wanted to try western myself. :D
I have a couple of friends, who use their Gypsy Vanners for dressage. They're almost always eager to learn. I love that about them. :) |

I grew up in Texas so everyone rides Western pretty much here :) I like western and think it is fun, but it is not completely for me. |

Crimson I know the feeling of starting off western and switching to English, because I am currently doing that now lol. My trainer is amazed at how quickly I got the diagonals and how light my hands are. I had a bit of saddle seat training on TWH before this current style of English but before that, it was all western pleasure, trails, and gaming. |

So happy for you! Gypsy Vanners are awesome. If I ever get a horse other than a QH, I'd get a Gypsy or a Friesan. And Western is awesome! Especially reining!
