  About Our Lessons
Our lessons are typically 1 hour long and include grooming, tacking up, riding, and then untacking. Grooming is an essential part of our time together—it helps build a connection with the horse and teaches trust and communication, which are just as or even more important than the ride itself.

We truly believe horses are sentient individuals with personalities and feelings, and they deserve the same respect and care we give to one another. After our introduction ride the first few lessons may feel like information overload, but don’t worry! As grooming becomes second nature, you’ll naturally have more time in the saddle.


Proper riding attire is mandatory.

This consists of:

  • Long pants or jeans(thick enough as to not be pinched by the leather stirrup straps)
  • Fitted shirt or T-Shirt
  • Boots or closed toed shoes.
  •  **Helmets are provided by The Equestrian Center if you do not have your own. If its not a equestrian specific helmet then it is  NOT APPROVED FOR HORSEBACK RIDING.

Policies

All lessons and pony rides at The Equestrian Center must be confirmed directly with the instructor prior to attendance. Payment is required in full before the first scheduled lesson for horseback riding. Unconfirmed and/or unpaid lessons may result in the loss of your reserved time slot.


Lessons and pony rides must be canceled 24 hours before the scheduled appointment time; otherwise, the lesson will be charged and forfeited.


In the event of severe weather, the trainer will contact students or parents directly to notify them of any lesson cancellations. We apologize for the inconvenience, but safety is our top priority—for our horses, students, and instructors. We’ll do our best to reschedule lessons as soon as conditions allow, ensuring that your Fort Walton Beach horseback riding experience remains enjoyable.
