the size can vary a lot but a large, sand ring is best. probably not too much smaller than 200 X 100. This will give a fair amount of room to build different types of courses.
There really is no standard size for a hunter ring. Hunter and eq courses vary frm show to show depending on the facilities. A good size ring is 160 by 180.
there is no difference but there is technically no such thing as a riding 'Rink'

Andalusians are often used for dressage because of their presence in the ring and their responsiveness, but they are sometimes used for jumping. Also, they are used just to show, such as in a flat class or even a halter class. P.S. they are my fav breed! They are awesome

The small ring is 66 feet by 131 feet. The smaller sized areanas, however, are no longer used in rated North America shows. The standard ring is 66 feet by 197 feet and is used for dressage and eventing tests.

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.
The outside leg is the leg "on the fence" when going around the ring. So, if the horse is traveling clockwise (to the right) around the ring, the rider's outside leg would be the left leg and her inside leg would be the right leg.

That would be an arena.
this is called dancing with your horse.

The ribbon race on Horseback is when you have two riders each holding an end to a piece of crepe paper ribbon (about 3 foot long). They race around the ring being timed or they perform various tasks as called out by an announcer till one of the teams breaks or drops the ribbon. It is great fun.
