The Masters of Equitation series gathers together, under individual subject headings, many of the key thoughts of eminent equestrians from past centuries down to the present day. The series does not seek to promote any one school over another, but to supply a ready source of reference to the ideas of many of the acknowledged Masters. Here, the enormous value of the trot in schooling and suppling the horse is explored, and the importance of the trot as the basis fo collection and extension. Trot is the gait at which most of a horse's schooling is carried out. As a consequence of its diagonal nature, all four legs perform an equal amount of work, and the back miscles flex and extend alternately on each side of the spine, producing an overall suppling effect. Masters of Equitation On Canter offers invaluable guidance, with special reference to the future development of piaffe and passage and other advanced work, but will also fascinate all horselovers interested in equestrian history.
