What to wear to your lesson
Riders should wear comfortable, form-fitting pants so they can move easily in the saddle. Hair should be tied at the back of the neck (no ribbons, bands or beads should be under the helmet).
We provide everything else.

To ensure the comfort and safety of our horses, TES has a 190-pound rider weight limit for all lessons.
