Exercises to improve trot

[smiggy]

There was a great thread a few days ago about exercises to improve the canter, have been enjoying playing with them.
any one have any good trot improvement exercises to share ?

One I've used before is rein back to then springing forward into the trot transition, to try and get them generating that initial push from behind

I like to also try trotting the long sides of a box and then back to walk/halt and do a turn on the forehand for each corner to make it square, then back into trot along next long side

A little canter also then improves the trot

I find holding my hand right up in the air in the trot really improves straightness and coordination!

Down the Longside do half in quarters in then quarters out, circle then go into shoulder in then before next corner straighten.
