Riding FAQs

Everything You Need to Know.

What should I wear for a horse riding lesson?

We recommend wearing long pants (jeans or riding breeches) and closed-toe shoes with a small heel, such as paddock boots or riding boots. Helmets are required for all riders and are provided if you do not have your own. Please avoid sandals, loose clothing, or anything that could catch on tack.

Do I need prior experience to start horseback riding?

No prior experience is required. We welcome complete beginners as well as experienced riders. Lessons are tailored to each rider’s skill level, goals, and confidence, ensuring steady progress in a supportive environment.

Are helmets and safety gear provided?

Yes. ASTM-approved riding helmets are provided for all riders who do not have their own. Riders are also welcome to bring their personal helmet if preferred. Safety equipment and well-trained horses are central to our program.

How do I book a riding lesson?

Lessons can be booked by contacting us directly through our website, email, or social media. Once we learn about your riding experience and goals, we’ll help schedule the best lesson option for you.

What age can children start horseback riding lessons?

Children can typically begin riding lessons around 5 years old, depending on their size, coordination, and comfort around horses. Safety and readiness are our top priorities, and all young riders are evaluated to ensure a positive and secure experience.

How long is each riding lesson, and what does it include?

Lessons are approximately 45–60 minutes and include grooming, tacking, riding instruction, and post-ride care. Riders learn proper horsemanship alongside riding skills to develop confidence, balance, and communication with the horse.

Are group and private lessons both available?

Yes. We offer both private and small group lessons. Private lessons provide one-on-one instruction tailored to individual goals, while group lessons offer a social environment with riders of similar skill levels.

Do you offer packages or discounts for multiple lessons?

Yes. We offer lesson packages that provide discounted rates for riders committing to multiple sessions. Packages are a great way to ensure consistent progress and long-term development.

What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

We require at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations may be subject to a fee, as lesson times are reserved specifically for each rider. Weather-related changes will be handled on a case-by-case basis with rider safety in mind.
