"The Spanish Riding School is the keeper of the Grail, where humility, service and perfection is the ultimate goal." Sylvia Loch
The Spanish Riding School of Vienna has survived for the past 400 years and is now under threat due to finance. It is no longer state funded and has to become a commercial venture. Putting tremendous pressure on horses and horsemasters, there have been reports about the stallions becoming tired and the pressures may have played a significant part in the recent suicide of Harald Bauer, lead rider of The Spanish Riding School.
A "Friends of the Spanish Riding School" group has been formed the German website here http://www.freundeskreis-srs.at/, Google translate bar should translate to English for you, where you can add your support to save the school.
