Parking (equestrian art)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In dressage riding, the stance is called "the distance by which the fore or hindquarters are removed from the hooves of the outer hind or forefoot during exercises on double hoof beat - the lateral gaits -. The guidelines define it as the "angle of the horse to the hoof beat". For example, the "angle of inclination from the hoofbeat" for shoulder-in is "about 30 °", while the inclination when giving way to the thighs , which represents a sideways movement but not a lateral movement, "may not exceed 45 °".

Side gaits are also used in floor work and long rein work to exercise the horse.

The "position" of the horse from the hoofbeat or from the gang must not be confused with the "position" of the horse in the neck.
