Good to know

How much do riding lessons typically cost in the US?

Private riding lessons generally cost between $50 and $100 per hour depending on the region and instructor credentials. Group lessons typically range from $35 to $65 per hour, with many facilities offering discounted monthly billing for weekly sessions.

What apparel and safety gear are required for a first lesson?

Riders must wear an ASTM/SEI-certified equestrian helmet and sturdy boots with a smooth sole and a distinct 1-inch heel. Long pants such as jeans or riding tights are required to protect your legs from saddle chafing.

Do I need to own or lease a horse to take equestrian lessons?

No, beginner and intermediate riding programs supply trained lesson horses for students to ride during their scheduled sessions. Stables usually only require horse ownership or a partial lease once a rider advances to competitive showing.
