Exquisite. Amazing. Living, moving, art.

[@WaltonFA]

A truly splendid experience to visit this one of a kind place! Thank you!

[@comesahorseman]

I would give various body organs to ride just one of these stallions, at a walk, for 10 minutes. Magnificent animals!

[@a.g.5883]

I rode several PRE stallions in Jerez years ago. Not from this fabulous school but highly trained. Mind blowing experience to ride such balanced superb athletes with such wonderful tractable temperaments.

So beautiful, saw them at Birmingham as a Christmas gift for my granddaughter & myself.

+tsar Joseph ii Benitez Just look up the Andalusian riding school. I think it's in Andalusia in Spain but I'm not sure.

I feel so lucky to have my own beautiful PRE/ Andalusian mare! She is 3yo and I'm teaching her the basics of the academic art of riding/ classical dressage from the ground now! You can follow our journey on my youtube channel!!!

Fine art. Saw them perform and was mesmerized, enchanted, and mind-blown. Only one problem: after riding for decades, made me feel hopelessly inadequate! The preservation of classical dressage must be made a universal law! Modern "dressage" is horrifying and abusive.

cool!

Nice,good video photography,also u can publish your video in Youpic.

[@Bilytkid]

Beautifully, highly trained horses. I'm estimating it takes [average] four years of training with the horse to reach that level.

[@sandyfarley260]

Actually, it takes about 10 yrs. to train them!

Whats up with the long whip/crop?

[@willowstar157]

It’s a dressage crop. It’s used literally everywhere, for various reasons

[@mbmochinski]

It's a training tool. I've seen a dressage trainer slap a horses heels with the long whip to get him to prance in place . ( I don't know the dressage term for it for prancing in place.) was distressed seeing it.

This is quite amazing, but the Lipizzaner Stallions are way too breathtaking to even compare with these horses

@@karenwhite2338 If the PRE (Andalusian horse) didn't exist, there would be NO Lipizzaner breed. Get your facts straight Chang.

[@elliewhelan4957]

The Lippizaners come from the PREs! I'd argue that the horses here are almost better but everyone is different. Both schools and horses are breathtaking

[@jillevans9099]

For one I think it’s cruel making them dance because they put something under the bit what makes there head tilt it may look impressive but actually it’s hurting them.

[@turkeyburglarjones6148]

jill evans are you talking about a curb chain? Sure harsh hands are painful for them (and some people here definitely have them) but curb chains aren’t inherently painful nor is dressage. Dressage is not just “dancing” real dressage is not about putting them in a frame, it’s about building their strength and balance. And curbs without curb chains are more harsh honestly, because the chain or strap stops it from rotating too harshly in their mouth.

[@elizabethblackwell6242]

@@turkeyburglarjones6148 A lot of that training is fine, but quite a bit of it is ethologically unsound.

[@turkeyburglarjones6148]

Stable Life like I said classical dressage in general is about working within the horses limits and giving them a healthier outlook on life, it’s not unsound. Unless you mean something specific in the video? Like being BTV, I don’t agree with that.

[@elizabethblackwell6242]

@@turkeyburglarjones6148 That's certainly the theory. Whether that's the execution, I remain unconvinced. These ethograms are backed by excellent research and are well accepted, so complying or at least aligning to them seems better for horse welfare.

[@turkeyburglarjones6148]

Stable Life what ethogram? Are you missing a link? It’s true that real classical dressage is a rare thing now but a few people do practice it. The riding school of buckeburg is a good place, or Anja Beran, Phillip Karl, even nuno oliveira. But I’m confused, you tell me this is unsound and now you’re saying it’s not unsound?

[@christielawrence4640]

Can't help but wonder why they do not display their horsemanship going bitless.

[@retro2546]

What does horsemanship got to do with bitless?

[@louisemota7030]

Bitless can actually be very bad for some horses. One can argue that bitless is harsher on the horse if used inappropriately. It has to do with the biomechanics of horses. Riding with a cord or with nothing on the horse’s head is the only better alternative.

[@a.g.5883]

So uneducated. Pathetic.

[@debracrew3261]

These beautiful horses, BUT i do wonder if their is any cruelty involved in this.

[@lottewils2532]

although the horses are beautyfull and it looks all professional and stuff this is abuse.Just look at their mouths and necks.

[@judithkirchhoff9103]

Thats no true. I have seen these horses. They are ridden and cared for by a single person, who shows a lot of respect and love for the horse

[@selyem7811]

I agree with you I am a bit late

[@kensalazar5066]

No abuse what so ever. What do you know about horses? Extremely intelligent creatures, they are considered a precocial species. Humans are not, horses have a herd mentality, while they fight for control, once its established they follow their leader, 8ts what they do and need. The trainer has become their leader....

[@XxShellyW13xX]

And you think the dressage horses of today act any differently? How about Thoroughbreds on the track? How about barrel racing? All of these have a whole lot worse headsets and gaping mouths. It just never ceases to amaze me the amount of people who have to come on a video and really hunt for the worst of it, and pounce on that one thing, and make this big deal about it. Just STFU and learn about the history of Dressage.

[@theyellowstudioorg]

yes, it hurts to watch. they have to stand on hind legs with reins so tight.

[@sandyfarley260]

Such beautiful horses! However I'll just bet these horses do not get patient and loving training the Lippizans get in Austria. The Spanish do not have much respect for any animal so I believe these horses are most probably trained using fear and pain.

YOU WOULD not get very far training a STALLION LIKE THAT.

@@frayakenny9201 I've been around for a lot of years, and been around horses most of those years. I have found that most animals respond well to patient, positive training techniques, with horses being no exception.

Do you know what is the name of the center where the Lippizzians are trained in Viena? The Spanish Riding School of Vienna,

[@sandyfarley260]

@@crisostomus You are correct about the name of the training school. However the school has been in Austria since before WWII, and the trainers are Austrians, a race known for their intelligence and kind personalities. The Spanish people I've known are far more volatile! Also, there are no animal protection laws in Spain, as there are in Austria.

[@selyem7811]

I agree Sorry being late

[@shawnaweesner3759]

This is NOT PRETTY! This is ABUSE! There is absolutely ZERO reason to be contorting these horse’s heads to their chests! Zero reason to take their manes and tails away from them. See the amount of head gear on one of these horses. It is so heavy and so much in order to cause pain to the horse via facial nerves via pressure per the nose gear, straps, reigns. In order to get a horse to contort his neck like this, tie downs are used, and often the horse has permanent damage in his neck from this contortion. Horses should be able to participate in dressage without the painful contortions that people force them to do. What the hell is wrong with people?

[@ellie27]

You’re the sort of person who thinks riding without a bit is much better than with one, and you probably think a saddle seriously harms the horse, too, right?

[@mortisha8693]

They didn’t take their manes and tails away from them. Look again - I see flowing tails or tails knotted up in a neat bundle to keep out of the way. Manes are braided down the neck line with tassels and the forelock free in most. Some of the horses have both manes and tails gloriously free. These horses are the equivalent of ballerinas doing martial arts moves.
