When Philippe Karl’s book, “Twisted Truths of Modern Dressage” was published, feelings began to run very high. French instructor Philippe Karl (School of Legerete) and Christoph Hess (head of training department of the German National Equestrian Federation e.V.) have now met openly and without mincing words to discuss their individual points of view – a somewhat heated debate using actual practical examples of different riders and horses in the riding area.
Classical Versus Classique with Christoph Hess & Philippe Karl is the filming of the secret meeting between the two, with the aim of not only documenting it but also of presenting it in a completely objective manner.
After viewing this everybody can and should form their own opinion as to what “classic” riding really is.
