Basic Principles of Equine Biomechanics and Training
Discover the horse between art and science. In this workshop by the Portuguese Equestrian Art, explore how biomechanics and nutrition influence training, performance, and the horse’s well-being — from athlete to artist.
From Athlete to Artist
Through its many roles alongside humans, the horse can be both a high-performance athlete and a refined artist—realities that define much of its life today. This workshop explores how the latest insights in equine biomechanics and nutrition can shape riding practices and professional horse training.
