About the Gait.....

The most common Marchador gait, the batida, is a diagonal, 4 beat gait (the forefoot sets down before the hind for each diagonal pair, with timing so offset that 4 distinct footfalls occur. The batida gait shares a lot of similarities with the foxtrot of Missouri foxtrotters or with the paso troce of the Paso Fino,  just a little more subtle and a lot faster. There is a moment  for each side when three hoofs are on the ground,  called "triple" hoof support, that makes this gait particularly smooth and stable. In its finest form, the batida is 4 even beats, called a "center" gait, that is so smooth, we say you can "serve tea off the horse's back".
