Sylvie Willms is known for her liberty dressage performances with her horses galloping through the arena at great ease. In the shows, she guides her horses without using any aids and makes them give incredible performances: Synchronous rearing, sitting or a pirouette on the spot – Sylvie shares a deep bond of friendship and trust with her horses that makes all the difficult performances look easy and light-footed. Now the Belgian rider is back with CAVALLUNA to cast a spell on the audience once again.
Growing up with Horses
Sylvie Willms was practically born with a passion for horses, as her family has been committed to these noble animals for more than 300 years. Before she could even walk, the exceptional rider was sitting on the back of a horse – and fell in love with the elegant animals and later with liberty dressage.

Her deep connection with her horses and the mutual trust can be felt at any moment. Whether in the show arena or at home in her little barn, a day not spent with her beautiful animals is a lost day, according to her.

She directs the horses with the smallest gestures and quietest commands and makes them perform circus tricks and classical lessons seemingly without any effort. Her repertoire includes majestic and impressive performances with a big herd of horses but also small and intimate numbers with only one horse at a time. Watching her makes you realise what true freedom really means.
