What is English style riding?

English style riding is a style of horseback riding that uses its own type of tack, riding technique and dress style. In contrast to Western style riding, the saddle is lighter and more compact in English style riding and the rider uses both hands to control the reins. English style riding also encompasses specific riding disciplines, including dressage, jumping and eventing.

What is the difference between English saddles and Western?

The difference between English saddles and Western ones is that English saddles are smaller and lighter so the rider has greater mobility. A Western saddle is broader and heavier and made for comfort during long rides. Another distinguishing feature of a Western saddle is the presence of a horn at the front, which is where cowboys would wrap their rope when roping cattle. English saddles do not have this and are smooth in the front for easier movement.

Do I need an English saddle pad under the saddle?

You do usually need an English saddle pad under the saddle if you are using an English saddle. Saddle pads and blankets provide extra cushioning between the horse and saddle and protect the saddle from dirt and sweat. Many are also made to absorb shock, distribute pressure, and improve saddle balance. If you are using an English saddle, you should use a saddle pad that fits under it properly. Western saddles are usually bigger and require a larger square or Western saddle pad.

How do I choose an English saddle for my horse?

Choose an English saddle for your horse based on your riding discipline and your size and preferred fit. There are English saddles designed especially for riding pursuits like jumping, dressage, cross country riding and more. Trail and hunting riders often choose an all-purpose English saddle that can be used for things like jumping, as well. Once you're chosen an English saddle style, find the size that fits your measurements and lets you sit and move comfortably as you ride. You may need to try a variety of English saddles before finding the right one.
