Sylvia is to be presented with her medal for the Order of Merit from the Portuguese President
at the Portuguese Embassy in London on 12th April 2016. A great honour for a British person. This is in recognition
of her commitment to the Lusitano Horse over many decades from the formation of the Lusitano Breed Society
of Great Britain in 1984 to her many published books, DVDs and her promotion of classical riding.
British Dressage Convention
In 2013 Sylvia celebrated the publishing of THE BALANCED HORSE with a wonderful Foreword by Carl Hester... something else equally special happened. She was approached by Richard Davison and Carl - to be one of their Guest Trainers at the British Dressage Convention. The other 'outside' Trainer was Miguel Ralao Duarte of the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art - a highly respected rider and another participant was Charlotte dujardin. Sylvia couldn't have been happier to be part of this, since the coming together of competition with classical training represents everything that she has worked for.
If you would like to find out more about The Dressage Convention a DVD was made of the day and is available to buy from, it is certainly worth purchasing a copy:
