View Original Description
The Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art (Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre) is an institution in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
The incredible "How Andalusian Horses Dance" equestrian show features choreography adapted from the training exercises of classical dressage, incorporating traditional Spanish music and costumes dating back to the 18th century. You really have to see this show to believe it! The horses and riders perform as one in a celebration of artistic creativity, harmony and color, accompanied by the rhythmic beat of Spanish music.
The school is devoted to conserving the ancestral abilities of the Andalusian horse, maintaining the classical traditions of Spanish baroque horsemanship, preparing horses and riders for international dressage competitions, and providing education in all aspects of horsemanship, coachdriving, blacksmithing, the care and breeding of horses, saddlery, and the manufacture and care of horse harness.
The Royal Andalusian School is a riding school comparable to the Spanish Riding School in Vienna, Austria. Like the Spanish Riding School, the Royal Andalusian School is well known for its "dancing stallions" shows for the tourists. The school is adjacent to the historic nineteenth-century Palacio de las Cadenas in Jerez.
