Avilion School of Classical Dressage Experience the Art
Instruction

||
Like most classicists of the last century, our school horses have all grown old and retired. While we train our next schoolmasters, lessons are currently available only on client's own horse. Travel is approximately within a one-hour radius of the Warrenton, VA area. For other locations we will be happy to schedule a clinic on request. We are currently an instructional facility only. We no longer take outside horses in training, nor do we breed or train horses for sale, or act as sales agents. Our focus is solely devoted to education.
