My Favorite Part of the Show

This part of the Lipizzaner show was called "Airs Above the Ground". It was so cool to see the horses jumping in the air.

This one was called the Levade. He balances on his back legs
This one was the Mezair - it was a series of Levades before rising all the way up on his back legs. It is really cool because he is moving forward.
This was really cool to see. It was called the Courbette. The horse balanced on their back legs and hopped forward!
