Spring Fever Farm's Head Trainer, Diana Beuchert, a long-time equestrianne and professional musical freestyle consultant, now teaches classical Quadrille riding. This type of riding is best likened to the Spanish Riding School in Vienna, Austria, where the beautiful white Lippizzan stallions dance all in a line. Quadrille riding has been around for centuries, and is marvelous fun for both horses and riders. Jennifer Dame aboard Principito, an Andalusian gelding.
Riders learn classical dressage and the techniques of riding in a group, or quadrille .
The groups practice to music once a week for six to eight weeks and perform a Final Exhibition with a party for family and friends at the end of each session. Groups consist of four to eight riders and practice at Spring Fever Farm, which has indoor and outdoor arenas and trained school horses. Riders sign up individually and must have experience in basic dressage. Liz Picone stretching Tamarack Tango, an Andalusian mare.
