img Lippizaner 170x150Amanda Rossiter '90 is shown here in the levade position on Conversano Tropina during the "Airs Above the Ground" segment of White Stallion Productions of the World Famous Lipizzaner Stallions. These spectacular leaps and maneuvers, once used by riders to protect and defend themselves on the battlefield, are now preserved as an equestrian work of art.

Rossiter first toured with the Lipizzaner stallions in 1997 for three months and then rejoined the company in 2000 to go on tour in Europe as a rider. She is now a trainer with the company in Oviedo, Fla.
