What are the moves of dressage?

Dressage tests generally require the horse to walk, trot, and canter. Depending on the level of the test, circles (10 or 20 m), changes of direction, and serpentines may also be required. More advanced tests also involve the extended walk, trot, and canter (where the horse increases the length of his stride), and the highest levels include the passage (a very slow, elevated trot) and the piaffe (a passage literally in place). Other dressage movements include the leg-yield, where the horse steps sideways with his body bent away from the direction he is heading, and the half-pass, similar to the leg yield except the horse's body is bent in the same direction he is traveling.

How do you teach your horse to side-pass?

First you have to start by teaching your horse very basic Dressage and systematically working your way up the levels. Passage is en upper level movement and should only be attempted by apprentice trainers under close supervision OR a Dressage Master. Passage is a variation of trot so in theory you would teach all of the different variations of trot first: Collected, Medium, Extended, Piaffe, Passage. These movements can also be taught in hand, but again should only be attempted by skilled hands. Passage can also be displayed by an excited horse in turnout. For more information look up; Classical Dressage and authors such as Alois Podhansky or books by the German Federation.
