Can anyone recommend a classically trained instructor in Surrey/ Sussex. I can travel for lessons / clinics or they can come to me. I am interested in trying classical lines
 
Having had lessons with or observed lessons with the 1st and 3rd suggestion I wouldn't call them 'classical'. Not criticising them as trainers in anyway but not sure if they're what you're after?!

I agree, I don't think riding in draw reins is very classical is it?
 
OK, this lady isn't very well known, but she's a fantastic trainer and has herself studied with the greats. Scroll down to Karen French, and don't be put off by the "nh" bit, she's got a wealth of classical experience behind her. http://www.silversand.com.au/index.php?o...6&Itemid=77
I know that she teaches in E Sussex, and as far down as Guildford, you might be able to travel to join one of her lessons.
 
I have recently seen Helen Ogilvie teach and thought she was very good. She is based in Surrey, along with her husband Trevor Ogilvie who is also supposed to be very good.

Ooh do you have contact details / location in Surrey. Google brings up nothing. Is her name spelt exactly right?

You are the second person who has recommended her recently.

Many thanks
