RENOWNED German dressage trainer Ton de Ridder has been confirmed as the dressage guest and presenter of the master class at the next year's Dressage and Jumping With The Stars.
Ton is perhaps best known as the trainer of his Olympian wife, Alexandra Simons-De Ridder, with whom he runs an internationally renowned dressage stable, Hof Rossheide, in Germany.
He also trains Japanese Olympian Hiroshi Hoketsu, who competed at the Beijing Games at 67 years of age.
Dutch-born Ton recently visited Australia and conducted clinics with Australia's High Performance Squad dressage riders. He also presented a master class at the Global Dressage Forum.
Tickets to the popular Dressage and Jumping with the Stars (March 18-21) go on sale on December 14.
