Mr. Vitor Silva, of Sons of the Wind Farm, Recently appearing in the instructor spotlight of Dressage Today, riders  can see that Vitor's training and teaching is grounded in his philosophy that the best teachers are the horses. Whether from in-hand work, undersaddle or on long-lines, Vitor teaches his students that while masters or trainers can share their knowledge and explain the technical aspects of riding, each rider must open themselves to feel the horse's movements, responses and needs. Ultimately, Vitor strives to develop this intuitive feeling in his students so that harmony between horse and rider can be achieved.Mr. Vitor Silva of Sons of the Wind Farm, in Mass., USA, gives us basics to use for in hand training that will help get your horse to activate the hind end, to enhance their movements and prepare for the piaffe and passage.
