‼️Important Notice‼️
We wanted to avoid this, but unfortunately, we must begin enforcing a cancellation fee due to the recent number of cancellations. I work a full-time job myself and understand the daily challenges we all face.
If you cannot make it to your scheduled lesson, please allow us at least 48 hours' notice. This will enable us to attempt to fill that time slot. No-shows will be counted as cancellations.
SAME DAY OR 24 HOUR CANCELLATIONS:
Policy as follows:
1st Offense: You will receive a warning.
2nd Offense: You must pay 50% of the lesson fee.
3rd Offense: You must pay 100% of the lesson fee and will be required to pay for lessons upon scheduling the next lesson. This is non-refundable if any future lessons are cancelled.
LATE ARRIVAL
I do my best to accommodate late arrivals as much as possible, but if lessons are stacked back-to-back, I am not able to do so.
Lesson slots are booked in 1-hour slots.
Example: 4:30-5:30 booking - If you arrive at 4:45, you will only have until 5:30 for the remainder of your lesson.
PRICING
Lesson costs vary due to each arena having different arena fees for using them. I build the arena fee into my lesson cost to keep prices down for riders. Lesson prices may vary when behavioral or abnormal circumstances with the horse occur. This is always discussed beforehand.
Training rides are different from lessons.
Arenas 30 minutes out of range from my barn in Boyce, VA are subject to a fuel charge.
HELMETS
All riders under the age of 18 must wear a helmet regardless of arena location.
