Three Oaks Farm

Service Price List

Horsemanship is a part of every lesson. Proper care, handling, understanding, and safety are taught in this program from the very beginning. Three Oaks Farm believes riders must be truly knowledgeable about their animals in order to become equestrians. Our horses and students are treated as individuals, each with their own personality and needs.

Students will be evaluated during their first lesson. Factors such as past experience, physical ability and willingness, all play a part. No one will be asked to perform that which they are uncomfortable with. Group lessons at Three Oaks are purposely kept small to ensure each student gets the attention they need.

Horseback riding is a sport that teaches patience, respect, empathy, and responsibility. This is a physical outdoor activity where any child from the one participating in track to the one in book club can enjoy and succeed. Horses are non-judgmental and children feel less pressure to look, speak, or act certain ways when they are with them.

Two pieces of equipment are required for participation in the lesson program. One is an ASTM/SEI approved riding helmet. A bicycle helmet is designed for bike accidents. A riding helmet is designed for riding accidents. The second piece of equipment you will need is a pair of sturdy shoes with a heel. Optimally these are riding boots, but certain other shoes make suitable substitutions. Information will be provided on how and where these items can be purchased.

Close fitting, tucked in shirts with riding pants, breeches, jodhpurs, or jeans that will not ride up are necessary clothing.

Riding and handling horses is a rugged recreational sports activity. No horse is a completely safe animal. If a horse is frightened or provoked it may revert from its training and act according to its natural behavior. Such behavior may include but is not limited to:

• Stopping short
• Bucking
• Changing speed or direction abruptly at will
• Shifting its weight from side to side
• Rearing
• Biting or kicking
