Equestrian (Horse Riding)
For 5,000 years the horse has been an ever-present ally in war and peace. Civilizations have risen and fallen on their backs and evidence of the horse’s use is everywhere to be seen.

Handloom Weaving
A handloom is a loom that weaves fabrics without the use of electricity. We, the students of handloom weaving, learn the manipulation of the foot pedals to lift the warp has to be in sync with the throwing of the shuttle, which carries the weft yarn.
