I took a side-saddle lesson the other day and really enjoyed it! (I went to Valley Farm Equestrian Leisure in case you would like to). Anyway, I was wondering whether it is possible to train a horse to side-saddle riding while also riding them in the English style. Or would you only be able to train a horse sidesaddle when its young and not backed?
And if you do train a horse to side-saddle, then a) where can you buy a saddle, b) where could you meet up with other side-saddle riders (meetings, competitions etc.) and c) does anyone know of any side-saddle instructors that are not tied to a riding school?
Thanks for all the help, looking forward to doing a lot more side-saddle!
