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.

How long does it take to start jumping doing English horse riding?

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.
