- They have gained muscular strength and endurance from the physical exertion of riding and controlling a large animal.
- The student has improved their spatial awareness and understanding of their body's position in relation to the horse's movements.
For continued development, consider introducing horse-related games and activities to further enhance the student's physical skills. Activities such as barrel racing or flag races can help improve speed, agility, and coordination while keeping the activity engaging and fun for the child.
