The Connection - Horse and Rider

Lorena Bass at an Escaramuza Fair in Mexico City.

Lorena Bass tells us about a special connection that escaramua riders have with their horses in this audiovisual.

The Art of the Escaramuza spoke with her at a recent Escaramuza Fair in Mexico City where she performed with her two sisters and mother on the same team, Rancho Sovilo from Guadalajara.

Don't miss Lorena's mother explaining why she couldn't help but joint the team!
