The bond between human and horse has existed for a very long time. Often, just their calming presence does wonders for the human spirit. In today's world, where many of us are disconnected to these large animals, encounters with these majestic creatures may be hard to come by. However, there are many people who still create a caring and exciting relationship with horses.
There are many different ways to ride a horse: bareback, western, and Australian. However, one type of riding stands out as the traditional equestrian style. The English saddle was developed through the growing popularity of fox hunting.

The English saddle is used in both Olympic and equestrian competitions.
