Special Thanks to Dr Derksen for his assistance and his answering our questions.
We are also pleased to have been able to present the words of these MASTERS in this issue:
eneral Decarpentry (1878-1956) was born to a family of horsemen, with his father and grandfather having been students of Baucher and his great uncle the Tsar's chief riding master and proclaimed by Fillis to be his model. Decarpentry is perhaps the best known of France's classical horsemen of modern times.
Kurt Albrecht brings his experience as a Director of the Spanish Riding School, with its unbroken line of teaching the classical tenets of dressage to both riders and to the judges. An invaluable contribution to our education.
Waldemar Seunig not only was a master horseman... one of the last royal Masters of the Horse in the 1900's... he also left us an incredible legacy. A legacy that we have available to us to use today to learn more about horsemanship, about our riding and training and about our horses.
Henry Wynmalen bases his teaching on the classical teaching of the great masters of the past and on a lifetime of practical experience. Taking the reader from the correct elementary training to the heights of classical equitation. Brining an understanding of the real meaning of dressage to all of those who care to read his words.
