Not really. The Missouri fox trotter walks with it's front legs and trots with it's hind, creating a very smooth ride. Peruvian horses trace a straight line with their back legs, one in front of the other, and swing their forelegs outward in a motion that looks like a swimmers arms. Don't ask me how they do it, because I have no idea. The feeling is instead of bouncing you, it rolls your stomach and back, which is much more comfy. Gaited horses also usually have faster general gaits than most horses.
