SPANISH RIDING SCHOOL VISIT TO WEMBLEY
WE WERE THERE
It was a real pleasure to meet so many of you at Wembley in November.We are glad to hear you enjoyed the performance. Magical was a
word often used to describe the performances.
The performances were preceded by a choreographed routine performed by Olympic and Paralympic dressage riders
Carl Hester and Lee Pearson which went down well with both Lipizzaner owners and the public alike.
Thank you for all your kind comments about our stand. We were pleased with it too. We would like to thank everyone who gave their time so willingly
to help out. The Ash Family and the Hardy Family & the Hayes Family especially who both gave up so much time over the four days to help man the stand.
From the feedback we have received, the mood of the public was very encouraging. It made a pleasant and light hearted atmosphere.
We met so many new people and the interest shown in the breed was very encouraging.
Classical horsemanship came to wide audience and for the Lipizzaner, as you know, an endangered breed, it can only be a good thing
Three of the days were a complete sell out with the recently added Thursday performance almost so. The more people who know about the breed and enjoy what they have seen, the better.
We have spoken to 100's of people both during and after the visit and they have been interested in learning more about the Lipizzaner, several
wanting to ‘touch a live one'. Thank you so much to those who have agreed to show people your beautiful horses.
The LNSA of GB offer a warm welcome to the riders and Lipizzan Horses of the Spanish Riding School of Vienna on their return after 5 years to The UK , and wish them a successful and enjoyable visit.
