I think that's what they're called in English (I'm used to them being a "ligne brisé" ou "ligne courbe")
Anyway, my mare and I started doing this last week in our lesson, and what I want to do naturally is completely wrong (I think) so I need to work out the correct aids (my instructor is a hoot, she'll tell me to do something to see what I do naturally, then introduce the correct aids the following time).
Basically we're coming straight down the long side and I ask her over with my outside leg, then it all falls apart, as I naturally want to tell her to go back over by inside leg back and over - it worked, because we'd just been doing leg yielding. However that can't be right, as I thought that was how you asked for a lead change in canter *scratches head* I don't want to make us more confused than we already are!
