How does a levade differ from a capriole?

In the context of haute école dressage, the levade and the capriole are both specialized movements, but they differ significantly in execution and energy:

• Levade: The horse balances on its deeply bent hind legs while raising its forequarters and drawing its forelegs in toward its body. It is a stationary, controlled pose that demonstrates extreme collection and balance.123
• Capriole: This is a more dynamic, spectacular air. The horse jumps straight upward from a standstill or a collected gait, tucking its forelegs in while simultaneously kicking out horizontally with its hind legs at the height of the jump. Unlike the stationary levade, the capriole concludes with the horse landing back on the same spot from which it took off.23

Both movements represent the pinnacle of horsemanship, requiring the horse to be highly supple, obedient, and physically developed to perform these demanding maneuvers with precision.23
