Paso Fino meets Garrocha - October 2016

On October 22nd Alex, some more interested attendees and I received dressage and Garrocha lessons from Stephan Vierhaus. For Milli and me it was the first time ever and again I am completely excited about my little horse! She did all I asked of her like a pro.

Even in a canter she was not bothered by the Garrocha pole and stayed focused all the time. Also the other horses and riders did very well and again proved how versatile the Paso Fino horses are.

Beneath a blue and white Bavarian sky and with professional instruction the Finos danced the Gaucho dance around the Garrocha pole. Conclusion: a fantastic day with wonderful people, a great teacher and a lot of fun! Milli and I learned a lot and we will continue training - Garrocha riding is a lot of fun!!
