What makes dressage classical?
It has an origin. A purpose. A devotion to lightness—not medals.
This tradition isn't about winning. It's about elevating the horse.
And that is something worth remembering.

Something exciting is coming - an opportunity to experience classical dressage in a way never see in the US before. Announcement soon... stay tuned.

Classical dressage as we know it dates back to the 1500s—and its golden age in the 1700s set a standard of lightness, harmony, and beauty that still guides the best riding today.

Some bonds are spoken in words.

Others in quiet strides, shared goals, and the rhythm of learning side by side—two feet, or four.
⁠
In the classical tradition, friendship isn’t separate from training—it’s part of it.

The horses teach us just as much as we teach them. And if we’re lucky, we walk away better—for the ride and the company.

The training of a horse takes knowledge, precision, and method. But the riding—that’s where the magic begins. That’s where feel matters more than force, and quiet harmony says more than any command ever could.⁠
⁠
This is the essence of classical dressage. This is the heart of the Lusitano. And this is what you’ll find every day at Sons of the Wind.⁠
