young horse dressage classes

[_l_i_z_]

am getting a new horse, and hope to aim for some 4year old classes next year, has anyone done these? what movements are involved? also are there many classes around, or is a lot of travelling involved?

thank you

There are two types ive come across:
Numed classes which are like showing classes which marks for paces and ability.
and test classes where you ride a set test.
Should be able to buy the tests, the 5yo tests are about elementary level so guess 4yo ones would be about novice level.
