Behold breath-taking displays of horses in training as they refine the methods created by one of the great equestrian masters, William Cavendish.
With their elegant Spanish horses, the Atkinson Action Horses will amaze you with a demonstration of skilled horsemanship displaying the complicated movements of Cavendish’s time which are still relevant today.
