Dressage: originally from Greek Calvary training, now focuses on flatwork movements with proper form and engagement.

Western: originated in the American west, Miami focuses on reining, ranch riding, and horsemanship that focus on movements related to herding cattle and the long days in the saddle of historical cowboys. 

Hunt Seat: involves both flatwork and jumping. Originates from the tradition of fox hunting in Britain. 

There are many many disciplines and subsets of the equestrian sport, these are just what MUET focuses on currently.
