It depends entirely upon how well you have lean red and mastered ALL of the skills for riding a horse that is well-trained in each of the five basic gaits and responsive to your every body movement, including the most subtle hand and foot movements. This usually takes several years and requires a well-toned body, better a body on the light side or middle range of your BMI (body mass index). Several years training in Ballet or gymnastics can somewhat shorten the period of training for mastering the skills necessary for equestrian training and, eventually, jumping. THERE ARE NO SHORTCUTS to jumping safely and competently.

What are facts about English horse back riding?
Because of the way English saddles are made it makes for more contact between the horse and rider. The gaits of an English horse are different than the Western type. English riders trot not jog and canter instead of loping. The English rider will post at the trot or sometimes called the rising trot. The rider is up in the saddle with the horse's outside leg and shoulder. English riding is the safest way to jump fences and gives the horse and rider the freedom of movement needed to navigate a jumping course. When done correctly, English riding is beautiful to watch.

Before you can start jumping, you need to be able to control your horse at all speeds while just riding. before you start jumping, you should trot your horse over poles spaced about 10 feet or more feet apart to help your horse get used to adjusting its stride. when you do start jumping, you'll want to start out fairly low, like 1 foot, to get your horse used to it.
