Why Travel for Simulator Training?
Deepen your riding skills with our Racewood Dressage Pro Simulator in Nova Scotia’s scenic Annapolis Valley, offering focused training and local exploration. Join our rider launch list today.
When you’re working on your riding, consistency matters. Breakthroughs don’t usually happen in a single ride — they come from focused practice, building one lesson on top of the next. That’s where the Racewood Dressage Pro Simulator truly shines.

By booking consecutive sessions over several days, riders can make noticeable improvements in their seat, balance, and position. Without the variables of a live horse, you can repeat exercises until they click, test new skills safely, and track progress in real time. It’s the perfect way to do a deep-dive training experience.
More Than Just a Riding Session
We’re lucky to be located in one of the most beautiful parts of Nova Scotia — the Annapolis Valley. It is just a short and easy one-hour drive from Halifax. When you travel here for training, you’re not just investing in your riding; you’re creating a getaway.
In between simulator sessions, you can:
- Explore local vineyards, craft breweries, and cideries
- Enjoy farm-to-table restaurants, cafés, and pubs
- Stroll through charming small towns like Wolfville or Annapolis Royal
- Take in hikes and beaches that showcase the Bay of Fundy’s world-famous tides
- Relax at a local Airbnb, boutique hotel, or cozy inn (we’re happy to recommend options)
It’s the perfect balance of focused riding work and well-deserved relaxation.
Easy to Get To
Whether you’re driving or flying, Willow & Withers is easy to access. We’re within reach of Halifax Stanfield International Airport, and just a short drive off major highways. Riders from across Atlantic Canada and beyond can make the trip without hassle.
Plan Your Deep Dive
We’re building a program for riders who want to spend a few days immersed in training on Will-oh!, pairing consecutive simulator sessions with the chance to enjoy everything our region has to offer.
Stay tuned as we finalize details — and in the meantime, join our list to be the first to hear about deep-dive training packages, rider retreats, and travel recommendations.
