Equestrianism, as an ancient and modern "noble" sport, has always been a symbol of elegance, gentlemanlike and passion. We often see in the movies and television variety shows and sports events the horsemen dressed in smart and handsome suit elegantly sitting on horseback. That is a kind of natural noble style! Get on your horse and sprint! Jump over the hurdles! Looking very valiant and heroic in bearing!
Equestrianism has always been an important tradition for aristocratic youth in developed countries in Europe and America. Equestrianism is not only a sport, but also an important way to cultivate and educate children's temperament and quality. Children can not only learn to make the horse surrender in the driving process, but also realize the exercise and promotion of leadership ability, feel the ability of driving the horse and controlling the self, but also feel the perfect combination of the horse and the self. Make the body strong, correct the posture, courage and confidence, cheerful characters and independent ability.
From harness, pulling on the reins and the bridle, the rigorous equestrian etiquette is not only a form, but also overcoming uneasiness, to advance and retreat with the horse. They are progressive learning challenges for beginners.
Under the guidance and help of the coach, everyone successfully completed the action of getting on and getting off the horse and also walked several laps in the field. The students on horseback are tall and confident, blooming with a bright smile and flourishing with youthful vigor!
Tips on Equestrianism
1. The horse loves carrots and cubes of sugar very much and people took them to feed the horse.
2. Try not to walk behind the horse and be careful of being kicked.
3. The horse's ears pressed back is an attack signal.
4. "Jia" is a horse riding term on the grassland. The horses on the racetrack do not understand "Jia"
As an intelligent animal, the horse also has emotions. To master a horse requires understanding and mastering the emotions of the horse. To master a horse's emotions, you must first understand and master your own emotions. The horse can sense the horseman's fear of an obstacle or gully ahead. The horseman's panicked thoughts (or perhaps just the tremor of the body) will be felt by the horse and the horse will often make a move to escape the obstacle at the last moment. Therefore, in order to achieve oneness of “the horse and the horseman”, the horseman must master his own emotions and convey them to the horse so that they can work together and achieve a common goal.
Horsemanship training makes students bravely face setbacks, challenges and innovations. From getting on the back of a horse to riding a horse, it is not a smooth process. There are various conflicts on the way, and we need to face the self-breakthrough again and again. Even failure and injury are inevitable. It takes relentless effort to move from one success to another. Horse riding makes a person the best character -- courage and perseverance, being enterprising, self-challenge and continuous innovation.
Every horse has its own personality. If you want to manage and handle a horse, you need to learn not only communication, but also respect. The key to a good relationship between the horseman and the horse is that the horseman learns to respect the horse. Getting on well with a horse and getting him to listen to the horseman and cooperate well takes a lot of efforts. In the same way, getting along well with your fellow classmates and enabling them to work together with you requires respect.
Tips on equestrianism background
In general, the background promotion can be carried out from several aspects, including company internship, academic research projects, extracurricular activities (volunteers and public welfare projects), subject competitions and so on.
As a high-end foreign extracurricular activity, equestrianism can exercise children's determination, thinking, communication, patience, goal-setting and problem-solving ability.
The advantages of the background are:
1. This kind of sport is unpopular preferred by the minority but very advanced. The achievement will have a high gold content;
2. It will be more favorable for veterinary, chemical and other related applications;
3. For the universities which have equestrian teams, students can contact the coach in advance, because the students in the international school who apply for equestrianism are very few, many clubs need to ensure racial diversity, so every year recruit students from the international schools;
