A half-halt is a give-take motion on the outside rein, which applies and then releases pressure in one rein, to re-balance the horse. Half-halts are usually used to slow down the excitebale horse; to help in collecting the motion and getting the horse into a frame (on the bit); to re-balance a novice horse, especially in downwards transitions e.g. canter-trot. They are typically used every time the rider sits, to give more weight to the motion. When used to slow the horse, the leg is not applied - when used to re-balance or collect the horse, the leg is used to create impulsion.

A half halt is a rider's aid that asks the horse to rebalance, collect, and prepare for the next movement. It is a combination of seat, leg, and rein aids used to engage the horse's hindquarters and improve its responsiveness to the rider's cues. Half halts are essential for maintaining control and balance during riding.
