This segment begins with a reminder to the rider on the effect of her position and its ability to influence how the horse moves and bends its shoulders and ribcage. They show an excellent haunches in at the canter, and then move on to the half pass and counter canter. They also do a ten meter circle in the counter canter, and when that is easy, ask for a flying change.
