## Caption

When a horse lands cross-cantering, it's easy to focus on the lead change, but trainers share that it's important to figure out why it's happening.

Before changing your training plan, take a step back. Pain, weakness, balance, rider position, straightness, and communication can all contribute to a horse landing disunited. The key is identifying the root cause and building a program that helps your horse become stronger, straighter, and more confident.
