In general, horseback riding is a sport in which a horse rides a horse with various movements, while a horseback rider moves with a horse and performs a lot of exercise.

However, in order to perform the horseback riding, a special place called a horseback riding ground is required, and it takes a lot of cost and time.

In order to overcome the practical limitation of the horse riding as described above, a horse riding exercise apparatus capable of enjoying horse riding in a narrow space such as a room and obtaining a horse riding exercise effect has been proposed.

Generally, a horse-riding exercise machine is composed of a safety mattress to which a user is seated, a main body portion for moving the saddle portion so that the user can feel the equestrian effect, a control portion for controlling the movement of the main body portion, and a grip portion have.

Most riding exercises use a motor in the main body to move the saddle in eight-figure form, raise, lower, or further rotate.

The movement of the main body is set in the ride control unit, and the movement of the seat moves in accordance with the movement of the main body set in the control unit.

As the saddle moves, the seated user's body moves, and the user's body moves throughout the body.

However, such a horse training exercise machine has the following problems.

First, there is a limit to the movement of a horse riding exercise machine.

Conventionally, the movement of a horse riding exercise machine is limited to a predetermined mechanical movement in the exercise machine, and therefore the user is accustomed to the movement with frequent use, and the sense of realization that horse riding is reduced.

Second, the movement of the user according to the equestrian exercise machine is passive.

There is a problem that the user moves according to a predetermined movement in the horse training exercise machine and the movement of the horse training exercise machine is not changed according to the user's movement.

Third, the user only has the feeling of horse riding throughout the body.
