Following the affiliation between All-Steps Formation Riding and the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art, we are so excited to invite you to a Master Class with a difference.
Join the chief rider, Joao Pedro and his colleagues, who will provide a fascinating master class covering Lower and High School training methods. The days will have theoretical elements in the morning with practical sessions in the afternoon. They will be joined by 12 advanced riders and their horses from the UK who will help with the practical demonstrations (we’re sure there will be the odd Lusitano or two in the group).
Day one
Theoretical
• The selection of the school horses
• Working in hand and on the lunge
