Crystal Pirates
"Our ship is our castle, and our crew is our family – united by sea and bound by crystal."

AHOY!
Crystal Pirates is an acclaimed North American competitive dressage club that aims to create both excellence in the arena and everlasting friendships. Our mission is to elevate every person that comes aboard our ship by imparting the skills of competitive dressage onto them, and helping pirates create unbreakable bonds.
Our unique approach in the arena integrates a point-based-riding-system, techniques from the Star Stable Dressage dictionary, and our proprietary "Modifier Method." Our curriculum, located on our website and in our open Discord server, emphasizes mastery of technique to enhance our routines.
Aye, from the crew!
Creating fun all day every day

☠︎ Small Clubs Center Seasonal Spotlight Winner 2023 ☠︎
The Seasonal Spotlight is a sort of "tradition" that takes place once every season at Small Clubs Center. At the start of each season, there will be a vote. The votes will have to be for supported clubs, and will be based off of which club seems to "stand out" among the rest of the supported clubs.
