Classical Dressage, the way I look at it, is a nice and friendly way to train the horse, but still with high goals of performence and perfection.

“Aim to be perfect or you will be stuck in mediocrity”

Classical Dressage is about trying to be as perfect as possible, to have a real connection with the horse and control and awareness of your own body as well as of the horse.

We usually start with work in hand including communication, relaxation, breathing and harmony with your horse. This will make you aware of all movements, shoulder in, haunches in etc. and therefore be easier for you to perform later. Once ready to mount the horse we focus on the rider´s and horse´s body  awareness. Doing the movements slowly enables you to feel the exact position of both hindlegs. When initiating trot and canter the ultimate goal is to maintain these paces without  rider or horse becoming tensed or stressed.
