An Exceptional Opportunity to learn and train with a Master Classical Horseman, 'J.P.' Jean Philippe Giacomini, from the basics to Grand Prix! Apprenticed with the famed Nuno Oliviero and served as assistant trainer at the Portugese National Stud of Alter Real. His successes include training 15 horses to the Grand Prix level, coaching of Olympic Equestrians from 5 countries including FEI champion Rachel Bayliss and Mystic Minstrel (3* & 4* Eventing and Dressage!) 

 "Dressage can be done by a rider in Topper and Tails on a Warmblood, a Cowboy on a Quarter-Horse or a Bedouin on an Arabian, but it cannot be *lived* truly without study, without effort, without principles and without compassion. If the horse doesn't display self-carriage, freedom of movement (within his genetic ability) and visible enjoyment when performing dressage movements, then the Art is surely only happening in the deluded mind of the rider." ~ JP
