Skills needed to ride a horse

with an instructor or a coach, but before you decide to ride a horse, you should first have some skills and know-how to ride it:

  • Patience

Patience is an essential component for all horse riders. Nothing in riding excites me more patience than daily training, step-by-step teaching and learning.

  • No fear

Fear can mess with our minds, it can stop us from trying or lead us to avoid riding completely. So self-belief is very important when riding.

  • Consistency

Horses need consistent work. Because teaching them something and then not following up is confusing. They may need to start over and re-learn. Consistency will lead to faster results and it also helps develop a relationship between you and your horse, which establishes trust and familiarity that helps with training.

  • Safety

Safety with horses must be a priority. Your coach can help remind you of these safety tips as you ride.

  • Follow your horse

Keep calm and move your body in the same way as the horse, feel the way it walks and let your body move with it. Because if you are stressed you may lose balance and cause some back pain.

  • Stop your horse

You should know how to stop your horse. It can be with the ‘brakes’, however, do not yank them hard, by pulling them gently towards you, your horse will know that you want to stop. You can also use verbal signs such as ‘ stop” and your horse will pick up this signal.

What shoes should you wear for horse riding?

The horse riding shoes you wear when riding are a very important part of keeping you safe. This is so as not to fall from the horse when your foot comes out smoothly without falling. So all riders wear a boot with a soft sole and a small heel (1 - 1.5 inches). This means sandals, high heels, runners/jogging shoes and hiking shoes are not recommended for horse riding.
