Riding Horse For Health Benefits

One way to obtain good health is through physical training. If you see someone riding a horse, it looks like he was just sitting only while giving instructions to the horse like go, whoa, and turn. Looks like the horse does all the work while carrying the rider, correct? Wrong.

There are far too many things done by the rider when riding a horse than a casual observer might expect. Riding horses has many benefits beyond simple enjoyment; physical, mental and emotional health.

Selangor Turf Club was founded in the 1800s by a group of amateur racing enthusiasts with the establishment of the Selangor Gymkhana Club. In 1896 under the patronage of the British Resident, Sir Frank Swettenham, Selangor Turf Club was formed.

In 1992, the Selangor Turf Club has been relocated from Jalan Ampang to give way to KLCC Twin Towers to a new race course site in Sungai Besi.

From 23-25 September 2011 from 10 am - 6 pm the Selangor Turf Club in Sungai Besi will present Horse Carnival/Expo. All sorts of healthy horse-related activities will be held. Admission is free.

If you want you shall be a volunteer here on the weekends only. Here you can ride a horse and can also learn to ride a horse with a very reasonable fee. Jom! Must be fun.
