DRESSAGE WEEKS 2026/2027
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege to ride many horses, in many places. But one thing became crystal clear to me: the Lusitano is something truly special. Brave. Sensitive. Powerful. Elegant.
A horse that connects with you, challenges you, and makes you a better rider. And there is no better place to experience this than in Portugal. That’s why I designed a new thema week; a week fully dedicated to dressage. This exclusive
theme week is designed for riders who want to truly focus on dressage. To improve, to feel, and to connect. No distractions. Just you, the horse, and quality training. Set in the stunning north of Portugal, you will train on well-schooled Lusitano horses at a beautiful equestrian centre, guided by experienced instructors who understand the breed like no other.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- 6 nights / 7 days in Ponte de Lima
- 5 or 10 private dressage lessons on Lusitanos
- 1 scenic trail ride in the mountains
- Full board: all meals included
- Small, personal group setting
This week is about more than just riding.
It’s about understanding the Lusitano.
Feeling the difference. And taking your riding to the next level.
