Louise has the riders do one of her favorite exercises, which is a cavalletti on a circle. This helps the rider use all her aids, helps the horse land on the lead of the circle and it’s a simple exercise. It’s an excellent exercise for balance of both horse and rider as well as the rider being aware of the track the horse is on.
