A show that has charmed millions of people in other parts of the world is now playing in the United States. What makes Cavalia special is that the stars are horses, riders, and acrobats who combine to create a visual extravaganza. Breshna Omarkhel of VOA's Afghanistan Service produced the piece. It is narrated by Penelope Poulou.

@kalenvS - I think ... By: juliaeaton. on 27 Jan 12, 17:10:55 @kalenvS - I think they have a book out about their horse training on their website cavalia.net. They are very dedicated to promoting the philosophies of classical dressage: partnership & communication and promoting humane treatment of animals. I know there's a lot of information about their stance on training on their website. You can see during the show some of the subtle signs of their? training when you watch them with the horses (ie: lots of patience and communication).
@gingersharmony - ... By: juliaeaton. on 27 Jan 12, 17:04:14 @gingersharmony - I've only owned mares myself but I understand why Cavalia doesn't have mares because they work with stallions too. Have you ever tried to work with a stallion and a? mare in heat at the same time in the same place? It doesn't work! At best it's comical and at worst it's a dangerous catastrophe. I doubt Cavalia have anything against mares they're just making good safety choices.
That is very true ... By: operationNOBO. on 20 Jan 12, 19:07:55 That is very true when it comes to backyard breeding. I know many? breeders who are responsible, and never have sold horses to slaughter buyers. The backyard breeder is unrealistic and wasteful, however there will always be slaughter for horses.

I had the ... By: evenstar34. on 08 Jan 12, 16:20:04 I had the opportunity to see this last night in Atlanta, and it was? very beautiful! Those horses are very loved by the performers, and you can see that. To Dehzee, this is not the place to bring up horses and slaughter houses. Until you can figure out how to stop animal overpopulation, it is what will end up happening. What is more humane, letting an animal starve to death slowly, or put them down? Either way, it is a no win. These animals are not being tortured, so save it for some other video.

Stallions can be ... By: takara9. on 26 Nov 11, 16:52:50 Stallions can be difficult, but with the right training they make amazing partners. Geldings are big puppy dogs and usually go with the? flow more than mares. I have ridden more mares than geldings, but sometimes I can't stand mares. Almost all of the mares I have ridden don't want to work and throw fits about it, and spook, buck, and spin. Personally, I like geldings a tad more, because I cannot deal with overly sassy horses. They don't use mares, because they use stallions. :)
