The Royal Andalucian School of Equestrian Art, in Jerez de la Frontera, organizes a unique show which is unequalled in elegance and tradition.

Jerez Horses combines choreography, classical flamenco and the Andalucian equestrian tradition in a magical and unique show. This delight for the senses is organized by the Royal Andalucian School of Equestrian Art, which is backed by the Junta de Andalucía`s Tourism, Business and Sports departments, and which is situated in the Recreo de las Cadenas in Jerez de la Frontera, a town which is famous throughout the world for its equestrian traditions, and the unofficial `horse capital of Spain`.

The show called `How the Andalucian Horses Dance` is an equestrian ballet with essentially Spanish music and costumes of the type worn in the 18th Century, and its choreography is based on the different types of dressage and other forms of traditional horsemanship. Each performance consists of between six and eight set pieces, all of high quality and conforming to the following repertoire, which is set by the Institution:

The show also includes a performance of classic dressage, with pieces such as The Foals, Equestrian Airs, Two Step, Three Step, Passage and Piaffer, Horse Control, and Fantasy. Other sections of the show are carriage driving, where the horses pull beautiful period carriages, and hand control, where the horse obeys instructions from its rider on the ground. Finally, the Carousel is the piéce de resistance of the show, where a group of horses and their riders, in unison, carry out advanced equitation exercises in the ring.
