Horse Riding Training Program



Below are the benefits of Horse riding:

Physical: Horse riding is a great form of exercise which has both cardiovascular and muscle conditioning benefits. Although it may seem as though the rider is not engaging in any physical exercise, an hour’s activity can burn similar calories to that of a 30-minute jog (6mph) or cycle ride (9mph). Therefore, all the health benefits associated with engaging in regular cardiovascular exercise are gained. After your first ride you may feel muscles that you never knew you had. This is due to the movement of the horse and its affect on the rider during the ride. As the rider reacts to the horse’s movements to avoid becoming off balance, the deep postural muscles of the trunk and pelvis and the adductor muscles of the thighs are continuously being conditioned.

Psychological:Horse riding is recognized as having excellent therapeutic qualities. The psychological benefits can be of equal importance to riders as the physical benefits. Simply being outdoors and enjoying the countryside will boost your general well-being and act as a great stress buster. There is a real sense of exhalation and freedom when you ride, a feeling that is second to none. Furthermore, developing a relationship and sense of trust between yourself and your horse is highly rewarding. Learning to control and care for an animal much larger than yourself can have a profound affect on your confidence and is a great feeling Day First day: Interducing the horse, mounting and dismounting balance and posture building. Second day: Repeat the previous lession and interduce the new task. (like walk, trot) third day: Repeat the first and second lessions. (depends upon the riders ability to learn) fourth day: Horse management, learn about horsemenship (partly) Fifth day: Grooming, tacking, feeding, and repetation of previous lessions.

Eleventhday: Repeat all the lessions and give theory exam for 10 minits. Twethday: JOlly ride in a group to outside. The above plans are minimal i have given in the lessions lots more to learn.
