The Clover 3

 Goal(s) :

Work on steering with the goal of navigating ground poles. Create beautiful curves, achieve perfect circles, and regain good straightness between circles. Successfully change your position relative to the horse while continuing the exercise.

 Process :

As with the first two "levels" of the clover, the entire exercise is described here on the left rein, but it can, of course, be done very well on the right rein too. Leading the horse on long reins, you pass a ground pole, make a circle to the left, and approach the next pole. Repeat the process to pass the 4 poles and make the 4 circles. During each "straight line / ground pole passage" phase, position yourself at the horse's shoulder or 3/4 behind him (depending on your goals). During each circle phase, position yourself at the center of the circle or 3/4 behind him (depending on your goals).

 Difficulties :

Managing the passage of ground poles + circles + your position relative to the horse.
