Interpretation of "Classical": Classical is the way of working with the horse, to enhance his physical and mental wellbeing. It is the way to help him find the means to improve upon what nature has already given to amplify the gaits and to do so without force. It also entails educating the rider to first find balance on a moving horse and then to refine the aiding as far as possible.

Interpretation of "Classical": To me 'Classical' is the ultimate in good riding & training, showing lightness & ease at all levels. Where training is carried out in a progressive & gymnastic way, allowing the horse to understand the question before progressing. Where the rider moves in complete harmony with the horse.
