What do students need to wear for lessons or camps?
All students must wear an ASTM-SEI certified riding helmet while mounted and while leading or grooming a horse. We have all sizes of helmets to loan first-time riders who are not ready to purchase one of their own. Paddock boots and half-chaps or boots and riding breeches are preferred. Shoes for riding must have at least a ½ inch heel. Jodhpur boots and paddock boots are appropriate for young children. Tennis shoes and hiking boots are not permitted. Long hair should be neatly hidden under the helmet with clips or braided. Loose, long hair is a safety hazard as it can easily become tangled in the tack during a fall!
