Once named the Bad Boy of his industry by the Los Angeles Times for his signature performance "Country with Class", Michael Pariseau has been invited to perform at Equitana Asia Pacific, November 22, 23,24 and 25, 2001.

Operating out of his property, Hidden Springs Equestrian Center & Stallion School in Moreno Valley, Calif. Michael works and lives with his two children and horses. Michael is a native born Californian, he has been training horses for many years. His greatest passion is the Friesian Horse, which he chooses to concentrate on because of its natural beauty, intelligence, presence and willingness to please. Michael also is training a white English Shire and a Brahma Bull & Michael is proficient in many different styles of riding but prefers High School Dressage for the challenge it presents to both himself and his animals. Michaels training methods are based out of love and respect, which he believes is the only way to get the most out of any animal.

Michael has been seen at many large equine and Pet events. Michael's first appearance on Horsemen's Talk Radio was at the Greater Northwest Equine Exposition in Albany, OR. Another interview was held at the 3^rd annual Western State Horse Exposition in Sacramento, Calif. Jim Campbell said to Michael, "you are becoming the center of attraction at most of these shows, we got here the other day and all we heard was Michael Pariseaus here, Michael Pariseau's Here". August 25, 2001 Michael will attend Dressage in the Wine Country in Santa Rosa; Calif. Michael will be exhibiting his Friesian stallions and White Shire Stallions in the breed demonstration, afternoon Clinic and the Mane Event with Willem S., a Magnificent Friesian Stallion. The following statement is made by Colleen Lethbridge, As Director of Equitana Asia Pacific's "Mane Event" I would like to advise that we consider Michael to be one of our "Star" International attractions. As such, will be giving him (and his sponsors) top billing and media attention via our publicity agent Prue Basset Publicity (Melb Comedy Festival, Disney on Ice, Melb International Festival etc.), who did such a wonderful job for us last year.

A brief summary the results of last year's Equitana Asia Pacific is as follows: -
