  • Pyramid of Training – Rhythm
    Chapter 9 PYRAMID OF TRaining – RHYTHM Energy and Tempo Rhythm is the term used for the characteristic sequence of footfalls and timing of a pure walk, pure trot, and pure canter. The rhythm should be expressed with energy and in a suitable and consistent tempo, with the horse remaining in the bal- ance and self-carriage appropriate to its individual conformation and level of training. “The object of correct dressage is not to teach the horse to perform the exercises of the High School in the collected gaits at the expense of the elementary gaits. The classical school, on the contrary, demands that as well as teaching the difficult exercises, the natural gaits of the horse should not only be preserved but should also be improved by the fact that the horse has been strengthened by gymnastics. Therefore, if during the course of training the natural paces are not improved, it would be proof that the training was incorrect.” [The Complete Training of Horse and Rider, p 161] One important function of basic training is to preserve and refine the purity and regularity of the natural gaits. It is there- fore essential that the trainer knows exactly how the horse moves in each of the three basic gaits, because only then will he be in a position to take the appropriate action to correct or improve them. When establishing rhythm, “the horse should be ridden in the basic pace best suited to it.” [Principles of Riding, p. 160] The rhythm must be maintained in each of the basic gaits, and in each form of the gait, i.e.

    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS.

  • Change of Canter Lead Through Trot on the Diagonal
    Chapter 19 CHANGES OF LEAD AND FLYING CHANGE OF LEAD Definition Change of Lead Through Trot “This is a change of lead where the horse is brought back to the trot and after a few trot strides, is restarted into a canter with the other leg leading.” [USEF Rule Book DR105] Simple Change of Lead “This is a change of lead where the horse is brought back immediately into walk and, after a few steps, is restarted im- mediately into a canter on the opposite lead, with no steps at the trot.” [USEF Rule Book DR105] Gymnastic Purpose The gymnastic purposes of changes of lead are to help develop, as well as test, the horse’s collection, coordination and balance, and to improve the quality of the canter. Qualities Desired The qualities desired in ‘Changes of Lead through Trot,’ are that the horse maintains his straightness, makes a balanced transition to two to three steps of trot, and strikes off clearly to the new canter lead. The qualities desired in a ‘Simple Change of lead’ are basically the same as the change through the trot except that the transition from canter should go directly to two to three walk steps, and to the new canter lead with no trot steps. The transition to walk must be immediate without any intervening vaguely trot-like strides, but also smooth. The steps must be determined and the four footfalls of the gait must be distinct. The transition to the new canter must also be im- mediate. The horse must canter straight and must constantly remain on the bit.” [Dressage, A Guidebook for the Road to Success, p 103] Aids The aids for changes of lead are the same as the aids for the canter.

  • Convert That Trot by Lee Ziegler
    trot Page 1 of 5 Convert That Trot by Lee Ziegler It doesn’t happen very often, but sometimes a gaited horse isn’t as ‘gaited’ as he should be. Some of them just seem to prefer to hard trot most or even all of the time. These horses are not as difficult to deal with as their pacing cousins, but they can be frustrating, especially for riders who have bought gaited horses in the hopes of never having to deal with a hard trot again. Horses trot for the same reasons they do any other gait – their conformation, body position, muscle use and neurological “wiring” incline them to do the gait. For a gaited bred horse that trots, in addition to these factors, there may also be a lack of rhythm that causes the horse to miss out on the special harmony that should produce his easy gait. Conformation that inclines to a trot: Horses with functional backs that are shorter than the average for their breed will often trot. Horses with relatively short lumbar spans (the vertebrae between the last rib and the lumbo-sacral junction) will also be more inclined to trot. Low headed horses that stretch easily forward will also be more inclined to trot than higher headed types. Horses with hind and front legs that are about the same length, elbow to ground and stifle to ground, may be inclined to trot. Body/muscle use that inclines to a trot: Horses with slightly rounded backs, and stretched toplines will be inclined to trot. Horses that easily tip their pelvises downward and flex downward from the lumbo-sacral junction will be inclined to trot.

    For Immediate Release for more information, contact Ginny Simon, Project Marketing, 610-889-2036, [email protected] September 24, 2019 (Devon, PA) - It doesn't get much cuter than watching foals as they first experience the Dixon Oval. But it's especially fun when it's under the shining sun! Individual Breed Classes From the adorable Haflingers to the impressive Hanoverians and Oldenbergs, more than 15 breeds showed attendees what careful breeding can do to develop and strengthen a breed. They were all winners but the top three scorers were: Kandyvrowe (Glocks Toto Jr. x Fergievrouwe), a 2015 mare bred by M.Hendrikden-de-Rijk, and owned by Iron Spring Hanoverian Farm, earned the high score of 81.850 Gypsy ISF (Tjalbert 460 x Goaitske fan e, a Friesian bred by Iron Spring Farm, scored a 80.60 Sophistikate, a Hanovarien handled by Francine Gentile, was third high scorer with a score of 79.250. Many of the breeds - - Hanoverians, Oldenburgs, Dutch Warmbloods are familiar favorites. Others, while well-loved an appreciated by their owners and breeders, are not so well known. Take the Dutch Harness Horse for example. Also known as “Tuigpaard," Dutch Harness Horses are a warmblood breed of fine driving horses that began in the Netherlands after World War II. These work horses primarily worked in farms and fields; however, horse owners became intensely competitive and desired to breed the finest and most elegant horse as horses were a status symbol to farmers when they would visit the town. As a result, breeders aimed to produce a refined, high-stepping horse that are easily recognizable.

  • Linking Gait Dynamics to Mechanical Cost of Legged Locomotion
    REVIEW published: 17 October 2018 doi: 10.3389/frobt.2018.00111 Linking Gait Dynamics to Mechanical Cost of Legged Locomotion David V. Lee 1* and Sarah L. Harris 2 1 School of Life Sciences, University of Nevada Las Vegas, Las Vegas, NV, United States, 2 Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Nevada Las Vegas, Las Vegas, NV, United States For millenia, legged locomotion has been of central importance to humans for hunting, agriculture, transportation, sport, and warfare. Today, the same principal considerations of locomotor performance and economy apply to legged systems designed to serve, assist, or be worn by humans in urban and natural environments. Energy comes at a premium not only for animals, wherein suitably fast and economical gaits are selected through organic evolution, but also for legged robots that must carry sufficient energy in their batteries. Although a robot’s energy is spent at many levels, from control systems to actuators, we suggest that the mechanical cost of transport is an integral energy expenditure for any legged system—and measuring this cost permits the most direct comparison between gaits of legged animals and robots. Although legged robots have matched or even improved upon total cost of transport of animals, this is typically achieved by choosing extremely slow speeds or by using regenerative mechanisms. Legged robots have not yet reached the low mechanical cost of transport achieved at speeds used by bipedal and quadrupedal animals. Here we consider approaches Edited by: used to analyze gaits and discuss a framework, termed mechanical cost analysis, that Monica A. Daley, can be used to evaluate the economy of legged systems.
