What You’ll Learn
This lesson program begins with teaching you how to put tack on and get to know basics of what to do when around horses. You will be taught how to mount and properly position your body on the horse. While on a lunge line (a long rope), you will learn to walk, trot, and eventually canter. As you take more lessons, you will learn to transition between these gaits and eventually ride exercise courses on your own.
What To Wear
Please understand that in order to receive the best feedback, it is important for the trainer to see your posture and position. It is best to wear tighter fitting clothes, rather than bulky hoodies or jackets. For a comfortable experience, we recommend wearing leggings or stretchy jeans. It is best to wear boots with a small heel, but please make sure the zipper is NOT on the inside part, as that irritates the horses skin. Gym shoes or any other closed-toed shoe without a zipper on the inside are acceptable as well.
Age Requirement
We will gladly provide lessons for anyone over the age of FIVE years old. Anyone can learn to horseback ride if they pursue the sport and stay persistent.
