How to Leg-Yield in and Out on a Circle

Published: May 16, 2022, 5 a.m.


Traditionally, the leg-yield is ridden on a straight line, usually from the centerline to the outside track. It can also be ridden from the outside track to the centerline, or from one side of the arena across to the other. 

During those exercises, the horse should remain straight in his body and only have a slight flexion at the poll away from the direction in which he is moving.

But when leg-yielding in and out on a circle, the horse must have a uniform bend through his body (rather than remaining straight in his body) because he is on a circle. 

Here's how to do it!
