Tracking left, trot half of a 20m circle. If
you carry a whip, carry it in your right hand.
As you come to the center line, prepare in order to
pick up the right lead canter at the center line.
Gradually increase the time in the canter until you can
complete the 20m circle.
When you've circled right as much as you like,
transition back to walk at the center
line.
If you want to continue this pattern, walk to the
left. If you want to switch walk to the
right. (personally, I switch so I don't have to
remember how many circles it would take to balance
everything out!)
'Rest' for the walk half of the walk-trot circle.
If you switch directions, switch your whip to the
left hand and track right, walking for the first half of
the circle and trotting for the second half of the
walk-trot circle.
As you come to the center line, prepare in order to
pick up the left lead canter at the center line.
Gradually increase the canter time until you can
complete a 20m circle. |
