Meet Clémence Faivre Luraschi

Today we’d like to introduce you to Clémence Faivre Luraschi.

Clémence revolutionizes equestrian arts in 2010! She is the first one in the world who has realized quiebres, pirouettes vaquere and changing legs at the canter in complete freedom. The equestrian world discovers Clémence, the general public too. Everyone is fascinated. What Clémence and Gotan achieve has never been seen before.

A feat as technical as esthetic. A woman-horse complicity never before experienced. The young horsewoman is increasingly solicited, her successes and accomplishments accumulating making her a formidable rising star in equestrian art and performances.

Clémence grew up in Gouvieux, north of Paris. Her father gave her her first horse, Forrest when she was 12 years old. Passionate about horses and cinema, she enrolled at the Cours Florent to become an actress. Mario Luraschi trained her to become a stunt woman. At his side, Clémence Faivre will serve as a double in many films.

In 2007, Clémence settled in Andalusia and perfected her dressage techniques training with the great horse master Francisco Bautista Roldan. Clémence Faivre finds Gotan totally by chance. She fell in love with him at first sight. She creates with him her first Haute Ecole performance in freedom presented in 2010 at Saintes-Marie de la Mer.

In 2015, Clémence realized another dream and starts her own Lusitano Purebred Studfarm. In 2017, she came back to France and the 15 September 2018 she gets married with Mario Luraschi. Often copied but never equaled, Clémence Faivre and her Lusitano horses have toured the world, invited onto the best international stages and to private events of prestigious hosts.

Has it been a smooth road?
Not at all. But it is a wonderful adventure. It takes a long time, sacrifices and hard work to get there. And luck, lot’s of luck also, to fall on the great horse, a horse with fantastic character, clever, nice and generous…

We’d love to hear more about what you do.
My specialty is the dressage of Haute Ecole without a bridle and in complete freedom. I look for perfection and harmony with my horses. My horses are also models for photos sessions; they are capable to work everywhere, inside beautiful monuments, casino, theater…

Let’s touch on your thoughts about our city – what do you like the most and the least?
For me, Los Angeles is THE American dream. I did the Los Angeles Longines Masters. It was my first show in the USA, I loved it, the ambiance, everything, like in the movies…
