Horse riding question.

Question

i used to ride quite a lot, for about 3 or 4 years.

i gave up and havent ridden for about 2 years..

now im starting it again, will i have lost all the skill i had or will it come back to me quickly?

Answer 1

it wont come back right away. but riding is totaly worth the extra time in refreshing yourself! may i suggest the buffalo equestrian center? (thebtrc.org) (S.B.S for bording, B.E.C. for lessons)  

Answer 2

It should come back

You need to be patient though

Do lots of bareback/no stirrup work

That will definitely help you get back a lot of the skill you lost.  

Answer 3

its like riding a bike, you always remember how. i recommend consentrating on feeling the rythm of the horse. go with the flow of how the the horse moves your pelvis forwards and backwards. thats all i got for ya.

Answer 4

it should come back pretty quickly, it's kind of like riding a bike you never really forget how to do it.
