Synopsis
The significance of the horse through history

Horse ballet or manège was once the noblest of pursuits, practiced by everyone from courtier to King in Europe in the first half of the 17th century. Dr. Lucy Worsley learns the lost art from its modern masters, as well as exploring its military origins and discovering horse ballet’s legacies in competitive dressage and, more surprisingly, in the performances of the Royal Horse Artillery, the King’s Troop today and visits the Spanish Riding School in Vienna to witness spectacular equestrian shows.
