The magnificent white stallions of Spain are dancing their way to New Zealand in January, February and March 2012 in the fully choreographed arena spectacular El Caballo Blanco: The Dance of the White Stallions.

The show is led by world-renowned riding master Rene Gasser who, with the experiences of seven generations, has recreated an event only previously seen at the famous riding schools in Vienna and Spain.

The horses of Spain are some of the most celebrated in history, favoured for centuries by European royalty, equestrian riders and bullfighters and this performance will celebrate the tradition, athleticism and grace of these revered creatures.

Along with the magnificent stallions, the show will also feature Spanish flamenco dancers in authentic vibrant costumes and the mellow notes of a guitar to bring the sights and sounds of Spain a heartbeat away.

In the south of Spain, the tradition of flamenco dancing is rivalled only by the tradition of breeding fine Spanish horses and Rene Gasser says the breeds have been featured in portraits with European royalty, used in multiple movies and are extremely popular among riders.

El Caballo Blanco: The Dance of the White Stallions will feature a number of performances involving the Andalusian, Friesian, Lipizzaner and Arabian breeds and the event is dedicated to showing off the amazing beauty and manoeuvres these horses are capable of.

    I went to this show in Palmerston North last night and if you are thinking of going and haven't bought your ticket yet - DON'T - It was an absolute joke - the dance of the White Stallions. They are not White and they certainly don't dance - and according to the horse trainer sitting next to us they are not stallions! You will sit though 2 hours (incl a 20 minute interval) of being introduced to 4-8 different horses and while a woman reads from her script the trainer will show you how they get the horses to perform certain 'military moves' it is like paying for the best seats of a musical but being given tickets to attend one of the rehearsals. I cannot stress enough how poor this show was. The moves are not performed by fully trained horses they will be performed by 3 - 4 horses at various stages of their training - beginner - intermediate - advanced! (or not so advanced as the case may be) and apart from one move (performed by one horse) the moves shown are no better than trotting!
