The United States Dressage Federation is a nonprofit organization based in Lexington, Kentucky, dedicated to the sport of dressage. It operates as the nation's only national membership organization for dressage, supporting education, recognizing achievement, and promoting the discipline. The organization is tax-exempt under the 501(c)3 designation and administers a broad portfolio of educational programs. Its activities engage members, 125 affiliate local and regional clubs, and a wider community through more than 30 educational programs and over 2,000 annual awards for excellence in competition. National levels from Training through Fourth Level fall under the United States Equestrian Federation, while international levels are governed by the FEI; in July 2024 the federation announced the launch of the USDF Book Club as a recent development.
