ALL ROUND EQUINE FAQ'S
How old does a rider need to be? – Generally speaking, riders need to be 6 years of age or older. Please email with inquiries for younger riders.
When should I arrive for my lesson? – Please feel free to arrive 5-10 minutes early for your
lesson and enjoy our setting while waiting for your lesson to start. This will help us make a
smooth transition from one student to the next and will help you get the most out of your
lesson time.
Do I have to have special boots? – Yes. You will need slick soled boots with a good heel for
riding. Your safety depends on it. Cowboy boots or jodhpur boots can be obtained locally and
affordably.
Do I need a helmet? – We have helmets for you to use, but you may want to purchase one for
yourself. All helmets used at All Round Equine must be ASTM approved. All students are
required to wear a helmet for their riding lessons.
What else should I bring to my lesson? – For warmer months, bring plenty of drinking water,
bugspray, sunscreen and other warm weather comfort items. For cooler months bring fingered
gloves, a cozy scarf and wooly socks, maybe even a spare jacket and a warm drink.
Can I leave my child with you for lessons? – Minors will need to have a parent or legal guardian
in attendance for their lesson. This means the parent is on grounds and able to see and hear
the lessons.
Can I bring guests? – We ask that you notify us if you are bringing anyone other than your
enrolled child to the lesson. This includes adults and children. Anyone who enters our front gate must sign a liability release. Guests, whether minors or adults need to be closely monitored by you while at our facility to ensure their safety. Please leave your dogs and other pets at home. Certified Therapy pets are allowed, but we need to know ahead of time so we can take measures to keep our horses calm.
