History of the South African Lipizzaners
The oldest human bred horse in the world, ancestors of the Lipizzaners, have been traced to Carthaginian and Roman horses at the time Julius Caesar was Emperor of Rome.
The Lipizzaner breed itself dates back to around 1562 when Archduke Maximilian started to breed Spanish horses in Lipica, a village in the modern day Slovenia. It was the need for military horses of unusual strength, loyalty and courage that inspired him to import Spanish, Italian and Arab-Oriental horses for his breeding programme. Out of this grew the famous white horse – the Lipizzaner – as we know it today.
These Lipizzaners are characterised by a perfect and noble physique, graceful movements, the ability to learn, liveliness, good nature, courage, toughness and stamina. In appearance they resemble in every respect the typical baroque show and parade horses.
The history of Lipizzaner horse is linked with an umbilical cord to the one of the famouns Spanish Riding School in Vienna. The School dates back 430 years to the revival of the 'Haute Ecole d'Equitation' at the end of the 15th and beginning of the 16th centuries, as the Renaissance was sweeping through the royal courts of Europe. Horses of Spanish origin were chosen over other breeds for characteristics they possessed which made them especially suitable for classical training. Spanish Riding School of Vienna is the only riding academy in the world where the Renaissance tradition of classical horsemanship is preserved and cultivated to this day. The unique harmony of horse and rider achieved here is famous all over the world.
The South African Lipizzaners have earned the honour of being the only performing Lipizzaners outside Vienna recognised by and affiliated to the Spanish Riding School and a close association is maintained between the two establishments.
Over the years, the South African Lipizzaners have become an integral part of South Africa's cultural heritage.
Today, the South African Lipizzaners appear on film and television and at various public performances as well as their regular Sunday morning shows.
THE HORSES
The Black/Bay Stallions
Lipizzaner horses are born dark. They gradually become lighter with each change of coat as they grow older, until they are silvery white. Although originally the breed represented different colours, today the Lipizzaner is almost exclusively white. Only a tiny percentage still today remains bay or black.
Today the Lipizzaner Centre has two bay stallions to uphold the century old tradition of colour in a Lipizzaner. Both Siglavy Arva 1 and Conversano Arva will remain bay for the rest of their lives. In addition a colt born in 2006, Siglavy Odaliska, shows signs of remaining black. He would take up the place of Conversana Pablo, our last black Lipizzaner stallion at the Centre, who unfortunately died in 2005 at the age of 22.
Our “coloured” stallions always get trained to highest levels and form an integral part of the performance.
Conversano Arva (Conversano Eros and Arva) - Young Stallion
Breed characteristics
Most Lipizzans measure between 15 and sixteen hands. They are compact and muscular, with very powerful hindquarters, allowing them to do the difficult "High School" (Dressage) movements, including the "airs above the ground." They generally have a strong-featured head with a convex profile, set high on a well-muscled, arched neck. They have short cannons, their legs have good bone, and well-sloped shoulders. Their gaits are powerful and elastic, although different in style from the Warmblood breeds seen in many Dressage competitions. Lipizzans are naturally balanced, well-known for excellent trainability and intelligence.
Lipizzans are slow to mature, usually not being put under saddle until the age of four, and not considered fully mature until the age of seven. However, they also are long-lived horses, often performing well into their mid-20s, and living into their thirties. For example, the stallion Siglavy Mantua I was a featured solo performer with the Spanish Riding School at the age of 26 during its 2005 tour of the United States.
EVENTS
Sunday Performances
The South African Lipizzaners perform every Sunday morning at 10.30am in their majestic indoor hall in Kyalami.
The performance lasts about 60min without an interval. Refreshments and memorabilia are available before and after the performance. Tickets can be booked through Computicket or bought at the door.
Please note: There are no performances in January, the first performance in 2007 will be on 4 February 2007
TRAINING
Basic Training
At the age of three, dark grey Lipizzaner stallions are brought from the stud farm, to Kyalami, to begin their formal training. These youngsters are used to galloping in the Karoo, but soon they adapt to their new and exciting environment. The stallion’s rider-to-be begins by introducing the young horse to saddle and bridle, and eventually starts his work on the lunge. Here the young horse learns to obey commands and develops trust for his trainer. The muscles in his back develop as he learns the correct way to carry himself.
Once the horse has spent about three months on the lunge, the rider will gradually introduce her weight onto the stallion’s back, and begin his training under saddle. At all times praise and little admonishment keeps the stallion’s trust and a relationship develops between him and his trainer. In the early days of the horse's training the young stallion is taught to move freely forward, accepting the contact from the bit and moving away from the rider’s leg. As his training progresses, the Lipizzaner learns the more collected paces, and the lateral work, until eventually, after about seven years, he becomes a fully-fledged Quadrille horse.
Work-in-hand begins when the young stallion is four years old, and this starts with developing the horse’s obedience to the whip and acceptance of the side-reins. Eventually the horse learns the piaffe and from the piaffe it is decided what, if any, of the Airs-Above-The-Ground this stallion will eventually perform. All the stallions learn the piaffe, and this helps when training this movement under saddle.
Training takes many years and is indeed never complete. There is always more for the stallion to learn, and as the Lipizzaner is long-lived, it is not unusual to still see a stallion performing at the age of twenty-five. His work is not only to perform, but to teach young riders the movement of Classical Dressage. There is nothing more valuable than a fully trained stallion for teaching the young rider.

The Lipizzaner breed itself dates back to around 1562 when Archduke Maximilian started to breed Spanish horses in Lipica, a village in the modern day Slovenia. It was the need for military horses of unusual strength, loyalty and courage that inspired him to import Spanish, Italian and Arab-Oriental horses for his breeding programme. Out of this grew the famous white horse – the Lipizzaner – as we know it today.
These Lipizzaners are characterised by a perfect and noble physique, graceful movements, the ability to learn, liveliness, good nature, courage, toughness and stamina. In appearance they resemble in every respect the typical baroque show and parade horses.
The history of Lipizzaner horse is linked with an umbilical cord to the one of the famouns Spanish Riding School in Vienna. The School dates back 430 years to the revival of the 'Haute Ecole d'Equitation' at the end of the 15th and beginning of the 16th centuries, as the Renaissance was sweeping through the royal courts of Europe. Horses of Spanish origin were chosen over other breeds for characteristics they possessed which made them especially suitable for classical training. Spanish Riding School of Vienna is the only riding academy in the world where the Renaissance tradition of classical horsemanship is preserved and cultivated to this day. The unique harmony of horse and rider achieved here is famous all over the world.
The South African Lipizzaners have earned the honour of being the only performing Lipizzaners outside Vienna recognised by and affiliated to the Spanish Riding School and a close association is maintained between the two establishments.
Over the years, the South African Lipizzaners have become an integral part of South Africa's cultural heritage.
Today, the South African Lipizzaners appear on film and television and at various public performances as well as their regular Sunday morning shows.
THE HORSES
The Black/Bay Stallions
Lipizzaner horses are born dark. They gradually become lighter with each change of coat as they grow older, until they are silvery white. Although originally the breed represented different colours, today the Lipizzaner is almost exclusively white. Only a tiny percentage still today remains bay or black.
Today the Lipizzaner Centre has two bay stallions to uphold the century old tradition of colour in a Lipizzaner. Both Siglavy Arva 1 and Conversano Arva will remain bay for the rest of their lives. In addition a colt born in 2006, Siglavy Odaliska, shows signs of remaining black. He would take up the place of Conversana Pablo, our last black Lipizzaner stallion at the Centre, who unfortunately died in 2005 at the age of 22.
Our “coloured” stallions always get trained to highest levels and form an integral part of the performance.

Breed characteristics
Most Lipizzans measure between 15 and sixteen hands. They are compact and muscular, with very powerful hindquarters, allowing them to do the difficult "High School" (Dressage) movements, including the "airs above the ground." They generally have a strong-featured head with a convex profile, set high on a well-muscled, arched neck. They have short cannons, their legs have good bone, and well-sloped shoulders. Their gaits are powerful and elastic, although different in style from the Warmblood breeds seen in many Dressage competitions. Lipizzans are naturally balanced, well-known for excellent trainability and intelligence.
Lipizzans are slow to mature, usually not being put under saddle until the age of four, and not considered fully mature until the age of seven. However, they also are long-lived horses, often performing well into their mid-20s, and living into their thirties. For example, the stallion Siglavy Mantua I was a featured solo performer with the Spanish Riding School at the age of 26 during its 2005 tour of the United States.
EVENTS
Sunday Performances
The South African Lipizzaners perform every Sunday morning at 10.30am in their majestic indoor hall in Kyalami.
The performance lasts about 60min without an interval. Refreshments and memorabilia are available before and after the performance. Tickets can be booked through Computicket or bought at the door.
Please note: There are no performances in January, the first performance in 2007 will be on 4 February 2007
TRAINING
Basic Training
At the age of three, dark grey Lipizzaner stallions are brought from the stud farm, to Kyalami, to begin their formal training. These youngsters are used to galloping in the Karoo, but soon they adapt to their new and exciting environment. The stallion’s rider-to-be begins by introducing the young horse to saddle and bridle, and eventually starts his work on the lunge. Here the young horse learns to obey commands and develops trust for his trainer. The muscles in his back develop as he learns the correct way to carry himself.
Once the horse has spent about three months on the lunge, the rider will gradually introduce her weight onto the stallion’s back, and begin his training under saddle. At all times praise and little admonishment keeps the stallion’s trust and a relationship develops between him and his trainer. In the early days of the horse's training the young stallion is taught to move freely forward, accepting the contact from the bit and moving away from the rider’s leg. As his training progresses, the Lipizzaner learns the more collected paces, and the lateral work, until eventually, after about seven years, he becomes a fully-fledged Quadrille horse.
Work-in-hand begins when the young stallion is four years old, and this starts with developing the horse’s obedience to the whip and acceptance of the side-reins. Eventually the horse learns the piaffe and from the piaffe it is decided what, if any, of the Airs-Above-The-Ground this stallion will eventually perform. All the stallions learn the piaffe, and this helps when training this movement under saddle.
Training takes many years and is indeed never complete. There is always more for the stallion to learn, and as the Lipizzaner is long-lived, it is not unusual to still see a stallion performing at the age of twenty-five. His work is not only to perform, but to teach young riders the movement of Classical Dressage. There is nothing more valuable than a fully trained stallion for teaching the young rider.
