Goal(s)

Be able to maintain the same rhythm at the canter

Process

In a steady canter, on the right rein, jump the 1st cavaletti, maintain the canter through the right curve. Jump the 2nd cavaletti, curve to the left, pass outside the cross to jump the 3rd cavaletti along the length, curve to the left. Maintain a rhythmic and steady canter, pass outside the cross, jump the 4th cavaletti, curve to the right, return to the 1st cavaletti. This exercise can be repeated indefinitely until the rider is satisfied with the canter's rhythm. It can be adapted for lower levels with ground poles, or for higher levels with taller obstacles. It is also a good exercise for lead changes and the horse's balance.

Difficulties

Keep your legs in contact and maintain a steady canter during the curves.
