About Therapeutic Riding Sessions
Why We Do This
At Uma Equestrian Academy, what drives us is the belief that riding isn’t just sport - it’s a way to get stronger inside and out. Our approach is simple: forget about comparing yourself with anyone else. Apne tulna kisi se mat karo (don’t compare yourself with others). Every rider’s journey is their own here.
What You’ll Feel & Learn
Therapeutic Riding Sessions are more than just sitting on a horse. It’s a mix of gentle movement, fresh air, and emotional healing through riding. You build a bond with the horse, and that does something special for your confidence. You get:
- Time with our calm, gentle horses
- Confidence building with horses, every session
- Safe and steady physical activity - nothing rushed
- A space to grow empathy and face life’s challenges in a fresh way
How We Make It Happen
Your comfort comes first. Our instructors know their stuff, but are never pushy. Horses here are the real pros - patient, steady, and kind. The grounds in Greater Noida are peaceful, so you can focus and just be present.
Who Can Join
Doesn’t matter if you’re young, old, or have zero experience. If you want a mindful horsemanship session and a different way to work on yourself, you’ll fit right in here.
