		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes a horse&#8217;s form—that is, its use of its legs, back, and neck—may be attractive, but the animal commits other errors over the fence by wavering from the ideal flight pattern. The flight pattern of a horse begins as the animal leaves the ground on the near side of the obstacle and ends as the [...]]]></description>

First, you want to make sure that you&#8217;re not leaning inward with your upper body as you try to push the horse outward with your inside leg, for your weight will counteract the effort of your leg.

		<description><![CDATA[The word, &#8220;lateral,&#8221; defined by Webster as &#8220;pertaining to the side,&#8221; has two applications in hunter seat riding. &#8220;Lateral aids&#8221; refers to the use of the rider&#8217;s aids on the same side of the horse, such as the right leg and right hand. This is opposed to &#8220;diagonal aids,&#8221; which are applied on opposite sides [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are two basic leg positions used in flatwork. The first, referred to as &#8220;at the girth,&#8221; is the placement of the rider&#8217;s calf against the horse&#8217;s flesh just behind the back edge of the girth. This position is used both to bend the horse and drive it forward. The second leg position is referred [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The figure eight is made up of two circles of equal size, joined by a short, straight juncture. The middle of this juncture is known as the &#8220;center point&#8221; of the figure. You should initially establish the center point by approaching it at the sitting trot, then posting as your shoulder crosses it to begin [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Several problems are created when a horse cuts the corners of the ring on course. First, the horse&#8217;s weight is distributed too heavily toward the inside of the turn, so that the animal is unbalanced on its approach to the upcoming line. Second, this habit is usually accompanied by the horse being bent in the [...]]]></description>
