You need toned fit muscles for riding well. Anyone can hop on a horse and say they can ride, but that's not true. To ride well you must be physically able to do it for long periods of time and fit muscles help you do that. Core muscles and Leg muscles are particularly important as they help you balance and stay in the saddle when jumping or moving quickly.

Need to gain confidence when horse riding.?

Find a good riding instructor friend, or parent that will be with you when riding to help you. Find a horse that is at your level, not beyond and not below, take your time it is not a rush, and have fun, do things that are fun for you and fun for your horse. When I started to ride I enjoyed small simple patterns, it is a change and it allows you and your horse to try something new each time. Hope this helps.
