Reputation:
Rodrigo has been one of the elite senior riders at the Escola Portuguesa de Arte Equestre in Lisbon, Portugal for the last 18 years. He trained with Nuno Palma and currently works with Maestro Dr J Filipe Figueiredo Graciosa, director of the Portuguese Riding School, whose own Lusitano stallions he trains. He has taken an Arab Stallion to Prix St George level and he also works daily with stallions from the Alter-Real stud farm and serves as resident Director of the Morgado School near Lisbon where he is responsible for training up to 35 horses a day and is in charge of other assistant and student trainees many who come from all over the world and have varying degrees of riding proficiency. He is one of the most sought-after clinicians throughout world, training top competitive dressage riders and classical equestrians alike and is clearly recognised as being one of the top trainers in the World. Rodrigo has recently represented Portugal in Paris at the unique and unprecedented performance of Classical Equitation at the elegant Palais Omnisports. We are very privileged to have him visit the UK.
Background: Rodrigo is a gifted rider who was born in a country where exceptional horses and talents are recognised and nurtured. He began riding at an early age, and his skills quickly became apparent to those who watched him communicate with horses. His broad base of experience assures that when he is teaching he works with both horse and rider to achieve their desired goals. His masterful wealth of knowledge and generosity to share it is highly revered. Whether working with a training level or grand Prix horse and rider partnership, he strives to bring harmony between horse and rider, emphasising the critical nature of lightness and kindness. Rodrigo is a purist, with precise methods and technical correctness in the classical style. His demeanour as a clinician is quiet, kind and focused on bringing harmony and non-coercive partnering between horse and rider, regardless of the training level of either. In this he is the master. He is also a diagnostician who immediately pinpoints the problem areas needing to be addressed which enables him to quickly improve the horses way of going, while addressing the riders specific needs and issues.
