I'm tired and sore from riding horses all day. Hi, how are you?

Oh yes, I see you are already conversant with Equestrianism.  It relates  to the skill of riding, driving, steeplechasing or vaulting with horses.

Yes it can be all of that and more. My friend and I train them for shows and we ride them a lot too.

Yes, if we delve deeper  we can describe it as  the use of horses for sports especially the competitive ones,  practical working purposes, transportation etc

She has a business training them for shows. I work for her so I don't make as much money.

Some level of work must be done with the horse as they are  are trained and ridden for practical working purposes such as in police work

Yes a lot of hard work goes into it and they have to be treated right and not abused. They are also very smart animals.

These days, I see that equestrianism  is  more used for competitive sports, dressage and other similar of such

They are used for a lot of different shows, competitions and performances. Sometimes we just like to ride them for hours out in the country.

The amazing thing is that  horses  can be used to perform in a wide variety of disciplines and competitions
