Horseback riding is no longer necessary for transportation and is generally viewed as a hobby or sport. Equestrians enjoy the sense of bond and partnership with their horse, similar to dog owners. Unlike dog owners, they can also get on the back of a 1200lb animal and travel at close to 30mph or jump over 5ft. That's something you just can't get from a pet hamster.

Horses have grown longer necks over time in order to survive. With a longer neck, they can easily see predators coming.

Did western or English riding come first?

English styles of riding predate western riding. As a result, English riding is practiced all over the world, but western riding is almost exclusive to the US and N. America.


How did english horseback riding start?

-English riding is not only in England -Its really fun though -A common activity in English riding is showjumping in which you are judged on how fast you complete the course and how many errors you made. I do this. -another activity in English riding is dressage which is a very diciplined riding technique where you are judged on a variety of things like being precise and behaviour of your horse. - saddle and bridle etc. is different to western -English riders wear helmets/hard hats rather than cowboy hats like western -You also wear breeches, chaps, boots and carry a crop -If you are thinking of participating be prepared to fall off, be bitten etc. but its worth it in the end when you know how to ride. -The jumps and lines into jumps all have different names -There is a wide variety of horses used for English riding. Hope this helps

What is more dangerous riding a horse or riding in a helicopter?

considering that in horseback riding you are sitting on a 1600 pound animal with a mind of its own, im thinking compared to boxing, horseback riding is far more dangerous. im not sure what the statistics are for boxing but in horseback riding, over 100,000 people are mildly to seriously injured a year and over 20 die a year from it. I hope this answers your question :) But then again, horses don't intentionally try to hurt you. In boxing, the entire point of it is to hurt the competitor.


How young is too young to start horseback riding lessons?

In this instance, I think you're right! Most children start horseback riding lessons at age seven - before that, most children have less control over their bodies, so will have difficulty staying on, or knowing how to handle the horse, and the instructor may have to take extra care with her. For her safety, I would wait a few years.

Horse Riding?

There are many different types of adventure sports to enjoy. Adventure sports range from surfing, to backpacking, skiing and different types of horseback riding. Horseback riding is a very traditional adventure sport. Before you begin your horseback riding adventure, you must decide what type of riding appeals most to you. Different styles or disciplines of horseback riding require different kinds of equipment, instruction and venues. Some of the most popular forms of horseback riding are Western style riding and English Dressage. Western style horseback riding is the most popular form of riding in the American Southwest. One of the hallmarks of Western style riding is the large saddle and horn to grab onto when the horse starts trotting or galloping. The stirrups are also quite large, which enables a novice rider to keep his or her feet more firmly planted in the stirrups. Cowboys in the Old West traditionally ride their horses Western Style. This form of horseback riding is very easy to learn and is a great way to take day trips into the wilderness on horseback. Western Style riding is also a popular competitive form of riding. There are a number of Western Style competitions that an adept rider can enter into during the summer months in the American Southwest. The prize for winning these competitions comes in both the form of money and fame. The horse riding style of Dressage is an English horseback riding discipline. This style of horseback riding is based on traditional European techniques of guiding a horse through a series of intricate maneuvers, such as through posts, around poles and over long and short jumps, as the rider and horse travel along a pre-determined course. Dressage techniques are usually practiced in a formal riding ring or on an established riding course. A dressage rider will learn to use his or her hands, feet and voice to work with and guide the horse along a challenging dressage course. Many dressage riders compete in competitions that increase in levels of difficulty with each ensuing win. The judges of a dressage competition evaluate both the rider and the horse for smoothness through the transitions, contact, relaxation and overall performance. This form of horseback riding is extremely disciplined and precise. A rider who loves an exacting form of competition will thoroughly enjoy the adventure of ascending levels of competitive mastery required to be an excellent dressage rider.

If your boyfriend invited a girl he met on a trip on a horseride on the context of fun should you be worried and how do you get over this?

He has no right to go horseback riding with this girl. He should bring her around and introduce her to you and then the 3 of you go horseback riding. Nip this in the bud! Tell him you don't think it's right. If he doesn't ask you to go along then he's hiding something. Good luck Marcy
