This session is designed for riders who wish to enhance their classical, refined, and conscious riding skills while working with Purebred Spanish Horses (PREs) selected for their sensitivity, balance, and willingness to cooperate with the rider.
The lesson is based on the fundamental principles of classical riding: balance, straightness, impulsion, relaxation, and lightness. Through carefully guided ground work, lateral exercises, transitions, and variations within the gait, riders develop greater body awareness, coordination, and harmony with the horse.
Special emphasis is placed on the quality of communication between horse and rider. The goal is to achieve a soft, flexible, and respectful connection through a balanced seat, quiet hands, and subtle aids, encouraging the horse to respond with confidence, calmness, and understanding.
The session promotes riding based on sensitivity rather than force, helping riders refine their feel, timing, and ability to move in harmony with the horse. Each exercise is progressively adapted to the rider and horse, always prioritizing relaxation, proper biomechanics, and mutual trust.
