by molly_spike | Loads of videos on YouTube of bareback jumping have made me really jealous, so I decided to try it on quite a fresh horse called Armani. Yes, I know, kind of silly to jump on a fresh horse…

by Madelaina | People say that all you really need is a dream, but taking that dream into reality requires more time and dedication than some of us might’ve been prepared for. This was the case with a horse I used to ride. The bond we formed was sort of like a latch on a gate, where at one certain angle everything has the magic of gliding smoothly into place…

by MorganzMuzik | Keep those hands choked up on the reins! That’s some good advice to follow. No, really. I can tell you. I’ve had a couple of, “ahem” incidents where I haven’t been paying attention to where my hands were. My mind starts to wander, as it always does when I’m riding. I start to imagine I’m flying through the clouds on a snow white Pegasus, no cares in the world…

by Kristi5678 | One day I was riding back from a trail ride with my sister. We were just rounding a bend in the path when two big shadows covered us. O.M.G., I thought. Two giant parachutes were flying over our heads at least five yards away…

by Michelle | When you go for a riding lesson, you always want to make sure that you get the most out of it. Though many of us are lucky enough to have our own horse and endless riding time and lessons, a lot of us (including me) can only ride once or twice a week. These types of people still want to improve, but it is obviously harder. Here are some tips on how to get the most out of you lesson…

by DianaLUV♥ | Is your fave horse always spooking at all the cars every time you go out on the roads? Is he always refusing at the same fence every time you ride at it? Is he always running away with you whenever you sit in the saddle? Is he always playing around and ignoring your aids? Well think of it this way, maybe it’s you and not the horse…

by Allison | Everyone has heard the phrase winning isn’t everything. That’s definitely true, but it’s fun to win every once in a while! Don’t be afraid to get out there and go for the gold. Horse girls know you have to set your dreams high. Do you dream of one day competing at the international level or just getting the blue at your local horse show? Then this blog is for you…

by HorseFeathers | Recently I’ve tried my hand at English riding for the first time. Let me say this, I have a deep respect for the people who take up this style. To me, it is a lot trickier than Western riding and requires much more balance…

by Allison | Riding can be dangerous all times of the year, but summer poses an additional threat. When riding (where I live) in 100 or more degrees Fahrenheit, heat exhaustion and dehydration rear their ugly heads. Trust me, I know from experience. When taking a riding lesson a few days ago, I started to blackout…

by mustangmane | I decided to make a second part to this, since a lot of girls were interested in my first one. These are some really good stretches for before and after riding…
