-
All the movements should be obtained with invisible
aids
-
Without apparent effort of the rider.
-
The rider should be well balanced, elastic, sitting deep in
the centre of the saddle and smoothly joining the
rhythm of the horse with his loins and hips supple
-
Thighs and legs steady and well stretched downwards
-
The heels must be the lowest point.
-
The upper part of the body should be easy, free and
erect on the vertical.
-
The hands should be carried steady and
low and close together
-
With the thumb as the highest point and independent from the seat.
-
The elbows should be close to the body,
enabling the rider to follow the movements
of the horse smoothly and freely
-
There shall always be the impression of harmonious co-operation between horse and
rider.
