1. Do you do lessons all year round?
Yes! I'm usually away for about two weeks out of the year visiting family. Otherwise,
I live on the farm and I can give lessons any day-including some holidays.
2. What about weather?
Weather is becoming a concern this time of year. I suggest layers and gloves
- you really do get warm once you're on the horse, so you'll want to be able
to take off a layer or two. I teach rain or shine, barring thunder, if my students
wish to ride. We have not yet had to close for snow, however we do keep a close
eye on the conditions and will call if there is anything unsafe (a thunderstorm,
flood, severe ice, etc).
3. Do I need a helmet?
We have several helmets available for students to use.
4. Are sneakers ok? Yes, although we recomend some form of boot, the
only requirement is that the shoe is "closed" (no sandles or slippers)
5. What days/times do you give lessons? Lessons run seven days a week,
and just about any time. We recently added lights to our arena to be able to
have lessons later in the evening.
