WELCOME
British dressage rider Stephen Hayes has competed through to the FEI levels within the dressage sport in Europe and the US, and is also a global dressage clinician. Spanish Team rider Beatrice Ferrer-Salat is one of the many Olympic riders Stephen has intensely trained with. Vicki Thompson-Winfield for Team GB is another Olympic rider he thoroughly trained with and competed for at her competition barn in Surrey, UK. Additionally Stephen has spent 3 years at US based Piaffe Performance, competing in the FEI Wellington show grounds under the watchful eye of Olympian Cesar Parra. With the knowledge and experience Stephen has gained through riding and training around extremely high profile judges and riders, he thoroughly enjoys transferring that through to his riders who attend his dressage clinics in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, Malaysia and of course his riders at ‘Perfect Harmony’ the training base in NY/Florida and through out the USA.
'His riders leave the clinic arena feeling inspired, motivated and capable'
He will work on increasing the quality of your horses natural gaits and way of going, helping you find ways of unlocking more of their body to enable to them to work more fluid and through, movements your having difficulty with, or whether it's help getting you on the right track with your young green horse or all the way up to polishing out the advanced movements of your debut Grand Prix test, even if your just wanting to improve as a rider and would like to learn more ways of developing a stronger, more effective and secure position, his training will be immensely beneficial. He also attracts a large number of eventers and jumpers who are realising more and more how important it is to develop a horse that is athletically supple throughout a course and extremely adjustable and manoeuvrable. There are around 10,000 equestrians supporting his Facebook page 'Stephen Hayes Dressage' and over 300 individual training session reviews from riders all over the world.
Each winter I enjoy the opportunity to compete in Wellington Florida and the East coast, as well as teach clinics through out the world including Europe, The USA, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Cape Town and Malaysia "

Kunzo’s first show in the US was a good one 🤩 Third with just shy of 68% in the PSG with a few wobbles in there, plenty of room for improvement. Thank you Vivian Picheny and Stanley Picheny for trusting me with this lovely horse! And thank you to my support group yesterday, Dominique Cassavetis for being great eyes on the ground. And Chloe Bradley and Andrea Ruch for all your positive vibes yesterday!

SOLD!!
This horse brings all the best qualities of a top PRE as well as all the great attributes of a talented European warmblood. He stands out from the crowd with great cadence, thrust and reach which makes the ride feel like your on your own Feugo at the World Cup. He has flexibility in the lateral work and fantastic balance in the collection. Listens to your seat and gives a soft feeling in the hand. Orador also has a lot of unlocked talent, zero maintenance needed so far in his life, so he’s still absolutely on track to see through all that potential. He has great bloodlines by Grandioso, stands 16.3 h and has impeccable manners. Stands like a rock at the block and cross ties. Hacks in the open field and roads.

I’m so lucky to have such a top team of sponsors! And I proudly welcome a new addition
CUatX Tack
! They have so many exclusive brands and products that you can’t find anywhere else!
One of them being this top quality saddle pad, not only does it have a built in sheepskin half pad (which I use on all my horses), but there is so much technology behind the fabric and materials they use for the pad itself, it’s cooling and aerodynamic preventing the horses from over heating! I don’t know how I’ve lived without one during the hot summers and the heatwaves that Florida brings during the winter! It’s a must have!
FOR A DISCOUNT ON ALMOST ALL OF THEIR PRODUCTS TYPE THE PROMO CODE 'SHD20' AT CHECKOUT!
Thank you so much CUatX Tack for being part of my team!

Perfect Harmony Dressage presents for sale this Top Quality Spanish Horse (((SOLD)))
Perfect Harmony Dressage Presents
10 yo
PSG with GP potential
SAFE SAFE SAFE
Imported in December from Spain
Wellington FL
🔹🔹🔹🔹
If your looking for a Spanish horse with a 10 for temperament, this horse is your guy! He has tonnes of controllable power, swing and lift. He’s the most comfortable horse on my list and the most eager to please.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
I searched all over Spain for quality movement (hard to find correct clean gaits in Spanish horses no offence sorry), with a super brain (many of them are quite hot), and sound body (many horses lead a tough lifestyle as stallions and don’t get to move much).
We X rayed him head to toe and all was well and we flew him over, he’s only been with us in the US for a couple of weeks and proving to be everything and so much more of what we thought he’d be. He’s a horse that says how much and how far, loves to go, happy to sit, and the sideways button is right there when you need it! Finding horses that find it easy to go sideways AND find it easy to collect are hard to find. His walk is clean, correct and overtracking without help.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
He’d suit anyone from a ambitious junior to a timid amateur to a professional wanting to shine.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
He’s shown the PSG in Europe and has come as far as he could with his previous PSG level rider, she’s done a lovely job in creating an eager sportsman with super rideability. Now he’s ready to learn the piaffe passage, and he’s really close to understanding the mechanics of it.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
I hack him everywhere, canter in the fields, ride around the tractors and sprinkles. Not a problem. I’ve taken him to the show grounds, he’s a show off.
🔹🔹🔹🔹
If you’d like a video which should be ready very soon let me know.

"What a day! The odds were absolutely against us this weekend. After only ever sitting on this horse once, EVER. I hoped to get a second ride in before we competed, but he arrived in too late yesterday. So my second ride ever was going to be the day of the show. (Ask any Dressage Rider this is quite literally suicide, I’m nuts. But this truly magnificent horse was an absolute pleasure to ride and he brought home the HIGHEST SCORE of the Day for the FEI classes with just shy of 69%. He is going to make someone such an amazing partner and is now available to view in NJ. Thank you Dominique for trusting me with your boy with such little time together. Without Vivian Picheny this whole weekend simply wouldn’t of been possible. I can’t thank her enough for your support! And a big thank you to Geralyn and everyone who came out to watch us dance!"
Thank you to all my amazing sponsor team who are so generous to me! I’m so grateful to have you all!

So much to be grateful for this weekend!
🥇 First time I’m competing this beautiful sales horse named Highhill.
🥇 This was Highhill’s first ever US show and the highest level he has ever competed!
🥇To top it off he’s not even 7 years old until July and to compete in a large FOURTH level class was a big ask and he completely rose to the occasion and not only behaved incredibly but WON BOTH CLASSES ON BOTH DAYS!
🥇’A horse of the future’ was the comment from today’s judge and that is exactly why I picked him out to come out to the USA for resale, he is destined for the top!
How can I ask anymore from him! Thank you so much Dominique Cassavetis for flying out to Florida to be the eyes on the ground that I very much trust and appreciate! And thank you so much to all my clients who came out to support us both!
Good boy Highhill! 🥇 🐴 🥕 🍬

''I am so so pleased with the response to these clinics which I've been conducting, it really does make me smile ear to ear when I hear the such postive feedback, and to be then invited back and further invitations to Singapore and Bangkok. Thank you! 'The warm humid weather in Malaysia had us out very early in the morning at sunrise working through till lunch time, then a long break till 3 so that the sweltering heat could die down slighlty, then back at it till the sun went down! I loved it, got a great tan, the bug bites wearnt a highlight' |

Stephen Hayes Australia Dressage clinic tour A HUGE SUCCESS
In a short space of time Stephen had put together a plan to jet out to Australia and visit two densely populated equestrian states in Australia to conduct 8 full day clinics, Stephen is very pleased to be invited back to Australia for more clinics!
“I don’t quite know how it all came together so quickly, but if I want something, I won’t stop till I’m there, and I really wanted to make this happen. How often can people get the chance to travel to different parts of the world and at the same time do what they love! I love to coach and share my knowledge with people who love our sport. I was very lucky to have great equestrian venues such as Juravon park Equestrian and Kleinreiterhof with strong teams behind them to help me organize this all too, they took such good care of me”
