"Andy Weal is a classical dressage enthusiast living in
France with his family and horses who firmly believes that the learning journey should be fun for both humans and horses alike..."
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.
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.
