Set yourself up for success with the correct attire. Please follow this dress code as a guideline for appropriate lesson attire:
Boots: Paddock boots, with or without half or full chaps, or field boots (or at minimum boots with at least a half-inch heel). Winter riding boots or other half-inch heel winter boots help keep feet warm in cooler temperatures.
Pants: Jodhpurs or breeches (or at minimum fitted legging type pants or jeans). No Shorts or dresses/skirts when riding.
Tops: Polo shirts or T-Shirts or appropriate sleeveless shirts with wider straps for warm weather (please no tank tops). Long sleeves, vests, sweaters (please no hoods as they flop around and are distracting) and jackets that are comfortable but not too baggy for colder weather.
Helmets: All students must wear a safety approved ASTM riding helmet (we have a selection available to borrow for rides, but it is recommended that each student has their own)
Hair: Please ensure hair is either in a braid or braids, pony tail or tucked up in the helmet. Hair nets are required for ages 12+ (if medium/longer hair) please ask how to correctly use a hair net with a riding helmet.
Gloves: recommended to protect your hands and keep them warm in cooler weather.
