Florida’s Classical Dressage

Ride Overview

Welcome to our Classical Dressage South program South! Come for a day or stay for a week – Vitor Silva’s riding program at Sons of the Wind Farm in MA is a rare find indeed and now he’s brought the entire offering to FL to make winter training a breeze!

It’s nearly impossible to get upper level training on highly schooled horses here in the USA – we challenge you to find it! Now you can experience it all year round.

Ride horses trained through PSG and GP – and they all move perfectly with strong toplines and impulsion without the “quickness” you sometimes see in this breed.
Experience your horse on long lines so you can focus solely on yourself and truly experience the movements and how it should feel in your hips, legs and upper body.
Enjoy small group (2-4) intensive lessons daily for as few as 3 days or as many as 5 days – this program really offers you the best of all worlds.
