Meaning of Gait

Gait sequence of body movements in which the body is first supported by one limb (or one set of limbs) on the ground and then by other (dict.Of sp.And ex.Sc.1991, 64P.) Gait the manner in which a horse goes, based on the sequence and rhythm of its foot movements. See canter, gallop, trot, walk (equestrian) gait the manner in which a horse moves, based on the rhythm and sequence of its leg movements (equestrian) (chambers. Sports factf.,2005, 225P.) Gait a way of walking (dict. Of sp. And ex. Sc. 2006, 93P.) Gait an equestrian term for the movement of the horse. Three natural basic gaits of the horse are differentiated: walk, trot, and gallop. They are differentiated further by qualification as collected walk, ordinary walk, extended walk, trot, and gallop and according to the length of steps. In the walk the horse lifts its legs on the same side but one after the other and puts them down again. In the trot the diagonal pairs of legs touch the ground simultaneously which makes this gait a swinging movement. In the gallop the momentum comes - as in the trot - from the horse‟s hind legs. The gallop is a sequence of jumps. Furthermore, all three gaits can be characterized with the additional label "collected", if the walking, trotting, or galloping sequences are performed with lowered hind legs, i.E. From a position where the horse‟s center of gravity is moved backwards and with small steps, the latter form creates the impression of grandeur. (H.Haag &g. Haag, dictionary, 2003, 208p.)
