What does PESADE mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A movement in classical riding in which a horse rises on its bent hind legs with the forelegs lifted off the ground.
In the pesade the horse holds the pose for a moment without moving forward, its weight carried by deeply lowered hindquarters. It is a school movement from classical dressage, and it is a slower, lower relative of the more dramatic rearing seen in the levade and the courbette. The term came into English from French.
