Description
Set up two or three pylons and ride in different rhythms sometimes a larger, sometimes a smaller circle.
Tips and hints
It is important to be sure before "E" which rhythm and/or circle you want to ride. How small the circle becomes depends on the horse's level of training and can be changed slowly over time. Start this exercise at a trot and not directly with the smallest circle (volt). On each circle you should turn as evenly as possible in order not to get an "egg" but a round circle.
