A Canter is a three-beat gait. First is one hind leg, then the opposite hind with the diagonal fore, then the opposite fore, the leading limb. The canter done in a circle, i.e. a riding ring, is described by the "lead," that is, which is the foreleg that ends (or begins!) the gait. A proper lead when in a circle is the inside lead. A gallop differs from a canter not just because it is faster, but because at one point, all four legs are off the ground. At a canter, at least one leg is always on the ground.
