DRESSAGE SOLUTIONS: Confirm Your Horse is on the Vertical 🦄

To confirm that your horse is on the vertical …

Imagine he is a unicorn and has a spiral horn coming straight out of his forehead. If you can see the tip of that horn between his ears, you have perfect in-front-of-the-vertical placement. If his nose is behind the vertical, the horn will not be visible.

Let’s talk about tempo.

Tempo is the speed of the rhythm.

Imagine the two horses pictured out hacking together, trotting up a lane.

They will both have a 2-beat trot rhythm, BUT the tempo of the trot will (most likely) be different.

👉 The big bay may be 1....2....1....2....1....2 (slower tempo)
👉 The small grey may be 1..2..1..2..1..2..1..2 (quicker tempo)

Try to imagine the speed at which you would be rising up and down to the trot on either horse.

So, what tempo is correct?

To some extent, the correct tempo that you’re aiming for depends on the horse you’re riding. It should look natural for the horse - as though he is going somewhere, but without rushing.

It should remain the same throughout each movement, with no increase or decrease in speed, and it should be easy for the horse to maintain without losing balance.
