Lesson Program
Our lesson program is focused on starting and introducing children and adults to riding. At RidgeMar, we focus on teaching the basics needed to eventually pursue hunter/jumper riding as a competitive sport. We have limited availability on our lesson horses, as they are only suitable up to the very beginning levels of jumping. An evaluation meeting will be scheduled every 6 months, to set goals and help each rider assess their progress.

• To sign up for the lesson program and reserve a weekly spot on the schedule, you must pay a monthly tuition of $300 due on the 1st of the month.
• Tuition includes 4 lessons per month. 
• Private lessons include 30 minutes of riding time plus additional time of tacking and untacking. Semi Private (2-3 riders) will be 45 minutes of riding time.
• Minimum 24 hour cancellation is required​
