Lipizzaner Horses
Photos during morning practice
The horses move from the stud farm to the Spanish Riding School when they are about 4 yrs old & are trained for 8 yrs or longer until they are skilled enough to perform.


2 videos of practice
Cameras were not allowed, so ignore the blurry shots & camera movement.


The horses' steps are based on battle manoeuvres.
The 2nd video was captured just after the horse performed a leap...
