Third Level Work | Steffen Peters | PART 02

Next, they work on trot half passes asking the horse to come more off the ground and be more responsive to the half halts. They work transitions between medium trot and half steps while keeping the suppleness and elasticity in the contact. Steffen explains that the goal is to create half pass that lives between a medium trot and a passage for high scores. The half halt should get the horse swinging within a step or two. They do the half pass with few steps of half steps in between looking for more cadence. Steffen ends the session with praise for such a great horse with FEI potential.
