Goal(s)
Horse's responsiveness to transitions
Process
Progressive exercises:
1) Set up only the first 8 ground poles and establish an upward transition between the two sets of four poles.
2) Once this is achieved, establish a downward transition between the two sets of four poles.
3) Set up 4 more ground poles and enter at a trot over the first poles, then ask for a canter over the next 4 ground poles, and finally ask for a trot over the last 4 poles.
Difficulties
Failing to achieve a responsive horse and/or succeeding in slowing down the horse

je pense surtout si on monte un un peu jeune mieux vaut commencer au pas trot pas ou trot pas trot avant de faire au galop c'est quand même pas si facile que ça.

c’est d’abord les 8 barres au trot et rien au milieu OU 4 barres trot + 4 barres galop et rien au bout ?

The objective is to boost the horse's confidence (the corridor is long and relatively narrow, which can be intimidating). Then, improve its control through the canter-walk transition, trotting over poles, and canter departure.
