Horse riding is a sport which helps people develop sound mentality and is good for the prevention and treatment of various diseases.

While handling horse, people try to communicate with horses and in the course of it they develop thinking ability and possess wide knowledge.

And they improve concentration and judgment, especially concentration.

Riding helps them develop good characters.

Hot-tempered and stubborn people have to study how to tame horses to get them to follow their intentions willingly and get familiar with them, which change their characters naturally.

Riding is also very good for physical training.

Riding horses for about 30 minutes is reportedly as good as playing a football game.

It is the exercise of the whole body which helps people strengthen muscles and bones, enhances the activity of the internal organs, helps the prevention and treatment of arthritis and treatment of slipped disk and constipation and relieves mental stress.

People can ride horses all the year round and adjust exercise burden according to their ability and demand.

As they do horse riding, people handle horses, experiencing diligent life and cultivating the spirit of cooperation.
