Answer 6

Ok, Riding is a fun sport, depending on what you want to do it can vairy in difficulty and the amount of time that it is going to take to master your selected discipline within the sport. For you to learn to ride it is not that hard but will take time, you will need to aquire a sense of balance and rythym and learn the gaits not just from the ground but also on top of a big strong animal. Horse Riding involves using alot of leg and seat muscles so until they develop properly and get used to what you are asking them to do they will be very sore. If you chose to go into a discipline such as jumping, eventing or rodeo you will need to have taken the time to master your flat work and gradually introduce these so that you are good at them. So all in all horse riding is not hard it just takes alot of time and dedication to master what you are trying to do.

Answer 7

Yes and no, it's just like any other sport it takes practice, but it's really fun too.

Answer 8

not hard just a little time consuming

if you going to just ride to show you need leg muscles and you have to practice a lot (more than once or twice a week) though its fun and once you get showing its awesome to be with friends and horses

hope this helps you out and i definitely recommend horse back riding

Answer 9

It's hard until you get used to it. The only "hard" part is building up the muscle in your legs and becoming strong; that takes a LONG time! (And a lot of time being very sore, trust me!) Once you get on the horse and learn how to control him, and get used to the horse, get to know him too, it's easy. =) (And if your riding a well behaved horse, it's even easier!)
