What to Bring
First Ride – What to bring for your assessment lesson?
Please wear sturdy footwear e.g. Covered shoe with a smooth sole and a heel.
Failing that, sneakers or running shoes still with a smooth sole but these are only suitable until proper footwear is obtained. Track pants or long trousers are needed to prevent pinching from the stirrup leathers.
Continuing lessons?
We recommend you purchase a pair of jodhpurs for your own comfort as they don’t have a seam down the inside leg to rub.
Jodhpur boots (a shoe with a flat sole and heel), these are for your own safety as they won’t slip or get caught in the stirrup. (Please note: when the students start jumping jodhpur boots are a requirement to be able to continue).
Purchasing your own helmet is recommended for safety, convenience and for correct fitting.
