-English riding is not only in England
-Its really fun though
-A common activity in English riding is showjumping in which you are judged on how fast you complete the course and how many errors you made. I do this.
-another activity in English riding is dressage which is a very diciplined riding technique where you are judged on a variety of things like being precise and behaviour of your horse.
- saddle and bridle etc. is different to western
-English riders wear helmets/hard hats rather than cowboy hats like western
-You also wear breeches, chaps, boots and carry a crop
-If you are thinking of participating be prepared to fall off, be bitten etc. but its worth it in the end when you know how to ride.
-The jumps and lines into jumps all have different names
-There is a wide variety of horses used for English riding.
Hope this helps

∙ 9y agoEnglish horseback riding, also known as classical riding, originated in Europe during the Renaissance period. It evolved from the military tradition of cavalry training, focusing on balance, control, and communication between the horse and rider. Influential figures such as Xenophon and later on, the Spanish Riding School in Vienna, played significant roles in shaping the principles and techniques of English horseback riding.

∙ 12y agoEnglish horseback riding started when people, mainly in Europe and England needed a better and safer way to hunt deer and boar. They were using Spanish style bullfighting saddled but the high cantles would hit them in the stomachs and chest when jumping over stuff. So they developed a flat saddle with forward placed stirrups. They were uncomfortable and unstable to begin with but eventually the saddles change into something far more comfortable and balanced.
In American English, that is called "bareback riding," so perhaps "horseback riding" implies the difference between riding with or without a saddle. The first horse races I went to, at a county fair back in the 50s, did not have the jockeys sitting on the horses' backs, but rather in sulkies drawn behind the horses.
Yes, most English horseback riders wear breeches. Breeches are designed specifically for riding as they provide comfort, flexibility, and protection while on horseback. They help prevent chafing and offer a better grip in the saddle.

Horseback riding is something that has been around for thousands of years and it is taken very seriously these days as a sport. English horseback riding is seen throughout the world today. To do it both hands have to be on the reins to control the horse.
Horseback riding in general began in central Asia at approximately 1600 BC. From here, horseback riding developed into more that just means of transportation, eventually becoming a well-known sport across the globe.

Probably from the English. You know, the people who began the nation with the 13 colonies....

Most people start jumping after they canter in a English saddle. There is no age limit, it is when you are ready to jump. You usually start small and work your way up with the right horse/pony.
We have no idea because horseback riding has always been part of history. No one can say for sure.
