Breaking Horses

In general I like all sports which are related to animals. The one I prefer is horse riding and I also like to break horses. I have been riding 3 or 4 times a week since I was 9. Nowadays I’m breaking a horse called ”Brujo”, with the help of Elisa a great horsewoman. Although it seems an easy job it's very difficult. It requires lot of patience and skills. Most of the people know the benefit that horse riding produces in handicapped people. I have proved it because some members of ASAMIS have come to my riding club. These members of ASAMIS feel very good when they see themselves doing a sport of people with great skills and with a great physical strength. When they are riding they feel very good just because they are able to do the same thing as people without handicaps. The horses that are ridden by them need to be horses with a very good training and with a calm temperament. They always need to be helped by someone with a lot of knowledge about horses. Not everybody is allowed to take a horse and control a horse. This work is very hard but it has a great reward, a smile from them.

What do you think about horse riding as a sport?

And what is your opinion about handicapped people riding horses?
