Let’s Enjoy Riding!
Horse Riding is a sport that everyone can enjoy!
One of the biggest differences between horse riding and other sports is horse-riding can be enjoyed by men and women of all ages, and is a low-intensity sport.
Horse riding is fun for the whole family, and is a great way to build family relationships through a shared hobby.
For disabled people, horse riding has been proven as an effective method of rehabilitation and builds self-confidence to approach everyday life with a smile.
Horse Riding reduces stress!
Despite their size, horses are gentle creatures. Built up stress can be washed away by the love and kindness of horses.
The view from a horse is much higher, and the ability to control a large animal gives a feeling of complete satisfaction and self-confidence.
Also, depending on the club, you can ride along trails through the forest, meadows and beaches. Riding amongst nature is the most liberating feeling. In these ways, riding is seen as a form of therapy.
Horse-Riding for Weight Loss
10 minutes of horse riding burns on average 35 calories.
By the way, 10 minutes in the sauna burns on average 29 calories and 10 minutes of cycling burns 28 calories. As you can see, horse riding is a great form of exercise.
Like swimming and walking, horse riding is great aerobic exercise. Moreover, as it requires incredible balance, it is great for strengthening the core and lower body. It also helps improve posture.
Let’s give it a try!
Horse riding is often seen as an expensive hobby, but this is not the case.
Prices vary depending on clubs, so compared to other extracurricular activities it is not as expensive as one may think and it’s okay to get started anytime!
For those interested in joining a club, we recommend booking a horse experience lesson.
Most clubs across Japan offer this service, and the price is very reasonable.
It is best to try different clubs and chose the club which suits you and your needs.
