The trot is a gait of the horse where the diagonal pairs of legs move forwards at the same time.
The speed of the trot is approx 8-12km/hr.
The trot can be classified as "working", "collected", "medium", or "extended", depending on the amount of engagement and collection of the horse.
By the rhythm, one may distinguish the square trot, when each diagonal pair of hoofs hits the ground at the same moment, thus producing a two-beat rhythm, and the fox trot, or the broken trot.
