Romanesque sometimes does the ‘left’ terre à terre on the right side, and he also does a ‘cross’ terre à terre sometimes, just like in canter you can get a cross-canter or a ‘wrong’ canter.
So even in the terre à terre you need to straighten your horse ;). And most of all: “Ride the horse forward and straight”, so by asking the horse to go a tiny bit forward in a right schoolcanter, and then collecting him again into terre à terre, you can keep the terre à terre ‘clean’.

This week I am at Eddy Modde’s place in Zeeland. Eddy Modde is a very experienced Parelli professional and an expert on trailer loading.
It is very much fun and very educational to exchange experiences with each other’s horses:

I thought it would be interesting to investigate what it would be like to do Straightness Training with a Parelli halter 😉
And it was so much fun!
Normally I work with a cavesson and a kandare, but a method should not depend only on the tools. What’s important, is the communication between trainer and horse.
