School Horse Riding Program
The school horse riding program at Fremont
Hills Stables focuses on the fundamentals
of riding as well as establishing strong horsemanship skills. In order
to become a strong rider the student must first understand the horse:
how he thinks, how he moves, and what care he requires. The student
is taught how to safely handle the horse, proper grooming
techniques, care and maintenance of tack, and the unique
characteristics of the horse. It is the mastery of this basic
knowledge, combined with proper riding practices, that makes a true "horseperson."
The riding program is run by
Laura Wainwright.
She has been an avid rider since childhood and has a competition
background in 3-day eventing, hunter/jumpers, and dressage. Most
recently Laura managed Shaw's Saddlery in Cupertino, Northern
California's largest tack and apparel store. At the same time Laura
worked as an assistant trainer, where she led group and private lessons, supported clients
at horse shows, and competed young horses and sale horses. Laura is
really excited to be part of Fremont Hills Stables and hopes to
bring fun and success to each student.
