About Horse Riding Lessons
What Riding Means to Us
At Zippy, horse riding isn’t just a sport. It’s a real bond, where you and your horse figure each other out, day by day. Some folks say we’re obsessed - I say it’s pura passion (pure passion). Whether you’re new or chasing trophies, the journey matters more than medals.
Lessons For Every Rider
- First timers? You’ll get all the basics in our beginner horse riding classes - safety, posture, and steady confidence. Doesn’t matter if you’re six or sixty, everyone starts somewhere.
- Hobbyists come by to shake off stress - nothing beats stress relief through horseback riding after a long week. Here, it’s about joy, not just technique.
- Got big dreams? For those aiming at show jumping or dressage training for juniors, we build up your skills for the competitive scene. We push, but never force.
Beyond the Saddle
We teach you ‘why’ not just ‘how’. You’ll learn:
- Horse care and grooming tips - from brushing to tacking up, it’s the real way to bond.
- Understanding horse behavior - you’ll read signals, spot moods, and really get what your horse is saying.
Our Way
The horse comes first, always. We stick to gentle communication, not control. Compassion, not pressure, is our rule.

My Story
We’re Team Zippy, and honestly, this place is our soul, not just a horse riding school. JP Nagar’s full of noise, so we made a corner where you can just chill with horses and maybe find a bit of yourself too. You know, horses get you - no words needed. We’ve watched shy kids turn into champs, even seen one of our own join Qatar Mounted Police! We’re all about the #ZippyFam vibes, cheering every win, big or small. It’s not work, it’s our way of living.
