All students start out private. Students advance to group lessons at the point the student is a confident rider and saddles independently. The more you ride the quicker you advance. Students learn to properly handle the horse from the ground while grooming and saddling. After riding, students un-saddle before turning the horse out to pasture. Some days, students may experience basic equine first aid, feeding, bathing, cleaning stalls etc. Group lessons (3-8 riders):
$165 per month – once a week one hour lessons
$265 per month – twice a week one hours lessons
Students fully capable of catching their horse, saddling and un-saddling independently, will be given time before and after the lesson hour to do so. Children under the age of 16 will need an adult present to keep eyes on children. You will not need to assist the child. The instructor will be busy with other work during this time, but still wants children to be monitored. Students will benefit from a group setting by feeding off of other students and learning to maneuver around other horses in the riding ring. Students also benefit greatly from a one on one setting with the instructor and less distractions. Equipment: Show students should begin accumulating some tack of their own such as a saddle (approved by your instructor), saddle pad, bridle and bit (approved by your instructor), splint boots, bell boots, grooming tools, hay bag and water bucket for traveling etc. All students should come to every lesson in riding boots. You may borrow a helmet for the first month. TRAIL RIDES:
