You could set them out like a clock face, with 12, 3, 6 and 9 and you as the middle point, trying to keep the rythm the same and the number of strides between the same. I find this helps with extension and collection work, you can also spiral in and out to either end of the pole, again concentrating on quality of stride between and keep the same number of strides to each pole. Also a set of long strided trotting poles on one side and short strided on the other to get adjustment of the stride.

Bump!

Tried some polework last night! Bless shes so honest...I got the striding a little wrong! lol

So does anyone know of any good books I can get my hands on to have a bit of a play with? She really enjoyed it and got a tad excited!!
