Could someone explain why nuno's horse and the grey horse above are slightly travelling backwards in the piaffe? I had thought the horse should be slightly moving forwards or on the spot? Or is this slight backwards movement just part of the training to get them even more on the hocks?
This is an older movement in terms of dressage although I don't think it has a specific name. There were quite a lot of movements Wheels that used to be preformed but they dropped out of fashion at the beginning of the last century, like canter reinback.
