What is the difference between western horse riding and eastern horse riding?
Wiki User
∙ 11y ago
Eastern riding uses thinner saddles designed for jumps and dressage, these saddles give a better feel of the horse and a rider uses two hands to control the horse. Western riding is meant for ranch work, long hours in the saddle, and uses thicker saddles designed for comfort and the horses are trained to be controlled with one hand on the reigns.
