@reinaafarisa: This is absolutely me announcing that I’m over the English discipline 🤣 I literally never felt secure/ fully relaxed in an English saddle (but my Horse is English trained so nothing I can do about that) but I cannot wait to get a western saddle lol ##horseriding##equestrianlife
Because western was made for the rider, english was made for the horse. Literally. A western saddle gives you an easier seat, while english is light weight for the horses comfort.

I just got a English saddle after riding western for 4 years, my horse looks so naked, like she’s wearing a skimpy bikini

western saddles were meant to be comfortable for the rider and practicality for long distance rides. English is for the comfort of the horses and for looks.

I always felt like English saddle was made for a certain aesthetic and western was made for aesthetic AND comfort.

They’re so much better. I look at the English ones I use to ride in and wonder how I ever stayed on

because English saddles are stripped-down and lightweight, designed to let the rider feel every subtle movement of the horse for precision sports like jumping and dressage while Western saddles feature a broad wooden or fiberglass tree and long bars that spread the rider's weight over a larger area, offering a plush, armchair-like seat for hours in the saddle.

I refuse to ride English. I never felt secure and safe even with the best tempered horse. I was raised in a Western saddle and I will never ride any other. Except a gated saddle with a gated horse bc those saddles are comfy and I lowkey prefer a gated horse bc they walk and move so wonderfully. Tennessee Walkers all the way 💙

For me a western saddle feels too bulky and restrictive.

I want to try Mongolian style (after I am rich enough to afford riding lessons in the first place, and then affording a small estate to keep my horse in)

For me- I tried for a long time to go western, and personally it just feels so wrong on my body. I've given up... back to English.

This is my opinion but the reason why I like English more for ME is becuase I feel like it’s harder and makes me learn more for me, and it gives me joy (but also irritates me) when learning how to ride better yk
