Miseducation and misinformation can lead to sporting accidents and even fatalities. Studies show that teens who participate in sports are less likely to engage in destructive behavior such as smoking, alcohol and drug abuse, and criminal activity. In addition, many innovative new emotional growth programs for at-risk teenagers are taking place in the outdoors. Professionals in education, psychology, and guidance are utilizing wilderness settings to teach teenagers responsibility, trust, discipline, and teamwork. Experience the peaceful and relaxing rhythm of sauntering through the open country on horseback -- a wonderful way for teens to get closer to nature. This book explains how to get started in the sport, how to practice good horsemanship, and how to make the experience both exciting and safe. |
