Things I focus on every day with Nikita:Sitting more in the pirouettes and not travelling
Straightness in and out of pirouettes
Elasticity in the transition from medium trot to collected trot or passage
Straightness and rhythm in the half passes
Most of the trot tour in the I-1 test, making sure she stays elastic and powerful
Staying straight in the 4, 3, and 2 tempis
I have a tendancy in the trot to want to make it too short, almost too much like passage. I just realized watching the video of half passes below that doing such causes the trot to totally lose power.
