What's this dressage movement??!

[Scampi]

I'm having a brain freeze! what is the dressage movement called when you go down the centre line keeping your horse straight and put your inside leg on to go back out to the track ?

That probably isn't a very accurate/good description - i'm having a brain freeze and cant remember what it's called!

20 metre circles in trot and canter
Half 10 metre circles in walk

Half 15 metre circles in canter
3 or 4 loop serpentines in trot
show some lengthened strides
Rein back (3-4 steps)
Medium trot/canter

I think elem is basically an upgrade to Novice for the first few tests. As x_miss_buffay_X says they include simple changes, counter canter appears at novice as does rein back. Pirouettes are introducted. Circles are tighter, leg yoield and shoulder in are included. If you are really curious buy some test sheets, they're only about 50p each for the paper copies without diagrams.
