British people love horses and have a long and proud tradition of riding. 2.4 million people in Britain ride, according to a study by The British Equestrian Trade Association (the most comprehensive source of insight on the British Horse Industry).
Many people dream of learning how to ride a horse, and whether it is a child who wants to learn for the first time or someone who wants to reignite their passion after years out of the saddle, there are riding tutors and schools out there that can help.
There are two main ways to learn how to ride a horse in the UK:
Why learn horseback riding? Is this an ancient skill that is dying out or an essential skill that plenty of people should embrace?
One UK study also found mental health benefits to riding a horse: "The sense of achievement that comes from mastering new skills and building a bond with the horse can greatly boost mood and self-confidence."
Ultimately, the fact that it is enjoyable is enough, but all of these other benefits are great for those who want to get started with lessons.
People looking to learn horse riding often have ambitions to ride competitively. There are many types of horse riding, some even Olympic events.
Dressage: Dressage is a discipline that emphasises precise and elegant movements where the rider and horse work together in harmony. It involves a series of movements and figures performed in an arena. Riders learn to communicate with their horses through subtle cues, resulting in a highly trained and responsive horse.
Show Jumping: Show jumping is a sport where riders guide their horses through a timed course of jumps, aiming to complete it with the fewest faults (knocked rails or refusals). This discipline requires riders to have excellent balance and timing.
Eventing: Eventing, also known as three-day eventing, combines dressage, cross-country jumping, and show jumping. Riders and horses need to be versatile and excel in all three phases.
The cost of riding lessons in the UK can vary from around £20 to £60 or more per hour. The price may depend on the riding school, the instructor's qualifications, the type of riding, and whether the lesson is private or in a group. Things like insurance also need to be considered.
