Better Canter Transitions | Bettina Hoy

30m 20s

German Olympic eventer Bettina Hoy works on balance and canter departs with this horse and rider. In trot, the horse has a too-quick reaction to the aids, so the rider asks for improvements and responsiveness over three to four strides. In canter work, Bettina has the rider depart from sitting trot and canter for just a short amount of time. After those efforts, they return to trot, and the horse shows better balance.
