There are endless reasons, but here are some of  Tricia's favourites:

​

• it's FUN!

• it challenges you to think in new ways

• to meet new people : )

• fitness! - no the horse doesn't do ALL the work and  - yes, you WILL sweat!

• to learn new skills or increase the refinement of skills already in place

• to improve competitive skills and strategies

• to experience the magic of an intimate relationship with an incredible animal

• develop character and sportsmanship - we all need it!

• to take time for yourself

• to enjoy nature and being outdoors

• mentally and emotionally therapeutic - lose all your cares on the back of a horse and develop mental and emotional strength
