French instructor Philippe Karl of the School of Légèreté (lightness) and Christoph Hess, head of the training department of the German National Equestrian Federation (FN), met in person and without mincing words to discuss their individual points of view using actual practical examples of different riders and horses in the riding arena.

The resulting and somewhat heated debate was captured on film with the aim of not only documenting it, but also of presenting the French and German schools of thought in a completely objective manner. With the help of this DVD, everybody can and should form their own opinion as to what “classic” riding really is.
