NSC Aotearoa Tempo Dressage

The NSC Aotearoa Tempo is the latest in the line of NSC Aotearoa Dressage saddles, following on from the much-loved Aotearoa Standard Seat. It has been carefully developed to carry forward the proven fit and comfort of its predecessor, while adding refinements for today’s horses and riders.

Designed for horses with medium to high withers and a defined “A-frame” back shape, the Tempo offers a secure, balanced fit that frees the shoulders for natural movement.

Generous wool-flocked panels with a drop panel shape add support through the front of the saddle. It is one of the few designs made specifically for the high-withered NZ horse with a long drop onto the ribshelf, helping you maintain balance and comfort as your horse develops.

For the rider, the moderately deep seat and repositionable knee blocks encourage a correct and personalised dressage position without restriction, allowing harmony and connection in every stride.
