If one were to conjure up an image of an athletic, forward moving motivated dressage horse and accept the German FN guidelines as the basis for training horses correctly, only one name would immediately come to mind – Ingrid Klimke.

She learned how to ride correctly from the absolute basics right through to the highest technical level and continues in this vein today – single-mindedly, passionately and with the utmost success in all the three disciplines of dressage, eventing and show jumping. Those who learn from her can be certain of being on the right track!
