Saddle Up at Any Age
Whether you’re returning to the saddle after years away or starting from scratch, our adult riding lessons are designed to help you feel confident, capable, and connected—with your horse and yourself. We welcome riders of all experience levels and tailor our lessons to meet you where you're at, with clear instruction and supportive coaching.
At Hindle Horsemanship, we understand that adult learners often value a deeper understanding of why things are done a certain way. That’s why our approach goes beyond just riding—we teach groundwork, horse behaviour, and safe horse handling so you can build a well-rounded skillset. Many of our adult riders find the experience not only educational but also deeply therapeutic and empowering.
Some adults also choose to start lessons because their children have begun riding and they want to feel knowledgeable, confident, and safe around horses. It’s a wonderful way to share responsibility, build understanding, and enjoy a shared passion as a family.
You don’t need to own a horse to start—we have a team of well-trained, kind horses suited for all levels of riders. If your goal is eventually to own your own horse, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
What to Expect:
- Individual or small group lessons tailored to your goals
- Experienced instructors who offer patient, step-by-step guidance
- Focus on safety, communication, and partnership with the horse
- Opportunities to explore different disciplines like trail riding, working equitation, and dressage
- A supportive and welcoming community of like-minded horse lovers
For those wanting to take their learning further, Equestrian Australia Certificates in Introductory Horse Management and Introductory Riding are also available for adults. These nationally recognised qualifications are an excellent stepping stone for anyone considering horse ownership or working in the equestrian industry. They are also an essential first step for those interested in becoming an EA-accredited coach.
