Frank Grelo was born in Portugal, the son of a cavalry man and master blacksmith. He has spent his entire life closely associated with horses, and trained in Portugal and France before meeting the legendary Nuno Oliveira,who coincidentally, lived only forty miles from Frank’s hometown in Portugal. For a number of years Frank rode under the instruction of Oliveira and learned much about the ancient art of Classical Dressage.

In 1971 Frank immigrated to Canada where finally in 1978 he founded Cedar Mills Classical Riding School in Bolton, Ontario. It is here that his skill, keen observation and life-long dedication to the art of riding leave an unforgettable impression on riders and horses who have the opportunity of training at the School.

Cedar Mills Riding School provides students with instruction in the Classical principles of horsemanship. The school is noted for its casual atmosphere, encouraging students to learn by riding as well as by watching others.
