Jordan SC-1 Choosing a Barn for Riding Lessons

0507VENUS20

One equine facility is not necessarily as good as another,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the same holds true for riding instructors. Choosing the wrong barn for riding lessons can be dangerous, especially if the student is a child.
It is important to remember that the student can switch stables at any time. Setting up a few lessons to see how it goes is never a bad idea.
To evaluate the safety of a riding lesson stable, students should ask the riding instructor or equine facility owner as many questions as possible.
Certification is one of the main things to look for. The American Riding Instructor Association and the Certified Horseman Association are just two organizations that certify riding instructors. They must meet certain qualifications in order to pass the screening process,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so it's a good indicator of ability.
Stable Atmosphere
Equine Facility Safety
When searching for a riding lesson stable, a visit is necessary. During the visit, the parent (or adult student) has an opportunity to evaluate the equine facility and to ask the riding instructor questions. After visiting several stables,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the student can make accurate comparisons.

Students should remember that choosing a barn for riding lessons is not a permanent decision. Some things are not immediately obvious from a single visit, and it might take time to determine that a particular equine facility is not a good match.
Riding Instructor Experience
However, riding instructors without certification are not necessarily bad. Ask for references if necessary to verify experience and education.
Some riding lesson stables are very strict and formal,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], while others are more laid-back. Some will allow the student to visit on non-lesson days to help out and observe, while others won't. Students should evaluate the overall culture and atmosphere as well as the logistics.
This is why students must spend time talking with the riding instructor before committing to a particular barn for riding lessons. It provides an opportunity to get to know one another and to see if the rider's personality complements the teacher's.
Working with an inexperienced riding instructor in horseback riding lessons is a recipe for disaster. Students should make sure that the teacher has a reasonable amount of experience and/or education before joining the program.
Even those who have no experience with horses should follow their instincts with these questions. If the riding instructor does not have an answer, or if the answer sounds contrived or insufficient, it might be a good idea to look elsewhere.
Safety is the most important factor when choosing a barn for riding lessons. It should be neat and clean with from the parking lot to the pastures, and a riding instructor should be available at all times for students who need assistance.
