Riding horses is not only entertainment, it's communication with horses, it's connection with nature and it's a question of health. If you have any problems with a back or nervous system, horses are good way to fix your health.
All my life i didn't have opportunity to take up riding, because of money troubles or lack of time.
Then I didn't know how to start, where to ride, how to find a trainer.
I knew that the best way to learn to ride a horse is with a competent coach or instructor.
But I began to visit horse clubs and just communicate with horses or have horse walk for 30 min.
When you are on horse back it's incredible feeling, the warmth of this animal goes into your body and after ride - no pain, no depression, no troubles.
One day my friend taught me to ride. And the whole summer I rode horses. I never felt myself healthier and I was full of positive energy and happiness.
And I think horse-riding helped me to become pregnant))) It's not magic, I just became relaxed and let myself live and not worry about everything.
First thing that I did before actual riding - I met my horse. I learnt how to feed and tie this animal and the horse I was going to ride.I watched how to groom it, how to look at it and even how to come to horse. I had so many walks on horse back, but i couldn't sit on horse back by myself. And I did it.
Later my friend let me to saddle my horse! And I ould sit on horse easily without hurting myself or my horse))) Really it took a lot of time to study how to mount up a horse! It took time! And How to sit in the saddle correctly. When I started riding, I felt uncertain, awkward, unbalanced, scared.
But I can say, for three months of my riding I began to understnd and feel not only my horse, but my own body.
I started to feel my muscles and my movements. By the end of August I knew exactly what my horses mood, what does horse want, How I fell at the moment, where in my body I feel tension or that I am tired and it's time to stop.
For three month of training I studied how to Walk, Halt and Turn on the horse. And I was not stupid, I did well but i was careful)))
I stopped in September becaus of my pregnancy. I knew falling is inevitable, it's just question of time)))
Now I miss horse riding badly and hope to start riding this summer.
I can't imagine my life without horses now.
