About Foundational Horsemanship for All Ages
You don't just learn to sit on a horse here. In our Level 1 foundation course, you spend 4 weeks mastering the basics: how to approach a horse safely, the correct mounting technique, and building the core strength for a balanced walk to trot transition. By the end, you will be tacking up your horse yourself, because true horsemanship starts with caring for your teammate, not just riding.
Why Start with Foundation?
At Uma Equestrian Academy, we believe riding is a journey, not a race. Jeet bahaane se nahi milti (Victory does not come from making excuses). Whether you are a student at Uma Public School or a hobbyist from Greater Noida, our foundation program ensures you develop the muscle memory and discipline required for advanced equestrian sports.
The Curriculum
We keep your saddle time practical and focused. Over 10 to 12 sessions, we cover:
- Safety First: Understanding horse psychology and basic stable management.
- Posture and Balance: Mastering the correct seat and leg position that serves as the base for all future riding.
- Rhythm Control: Moving from the walk to controlled trot transitions, and understanding how to steer using subtle rein aids.
- Bonding: Learning to groom, brush, and saddle your own horse.
Our Approach
Our instructors are hands on. You will see us walking alongside students, correcting posture in real time, and ensuring that every rider understands the why behind the movement. We use a mix of theory and practical riding time to ensure you feel secure. This is not a place for casual rides; it is a place to build character, karm (action), and a lifelong partnership with these animals. If you have been hesitant about starting, know that we focus on individual progress, not comparisons. Show up, put in the work, and watch your confidence grow.
Uma Equestrian Academy
We are Uma Equestrian Academy, and we believe riding is about passion, discipline, and building a character that lasts. We aren't just here to teach you how to ride; we are here to help you find your lakshya (goal) and achieve it with grit.
