The 3 Loop Serpentine

Serpentines are great exercises to work on suppleness and to get your horse focused, bending, and on the aids! Sometimes, especially when you are first learning how to ride a serpentine, it can be very difficult to visualize what exactly the serpentine should look like! This video includes some INCREDIBLE drone footage that shoulder really help you to visualize the shape of the serpentine.

The 3 loop serpentine shows up in Training Level Test 3 and the judges are very picky about the accuracy of the figure and showing a clear change of bend!

Here are a few tips to help you improve your 3 loop serpentine:
A 3 loop serpentine is 3, half 20 meter circles
Be sure NOT to ride any corners or straight lines in your serpentine
Change your posting diagonal each time crossing the centerline
Show a clear change of bend when you cross the centerline

Serpentines are one of THE BEST warm-up exercises to get your horse focused, supple, and on the aids. Give it a try and let me know in the comments how it is going for you!
