Lesson Basics:

• Long pants and boots with a heel are required, no sneakers or shorts are allowed

• BVF has hard hats you may borrow if you do not wish to purchase your own.

• Grooming and tacking are an important part of the BVF horsemanship and riding experience. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early for your lesson to help groom and tack up your horse. As students advance grooming, tacking, and untacking (as necessary) will become their responsibility.

Mommy & Me Program:

Our Mommy & Me Program offers parents the opportunity to bond with their child and experience their first pony moments together! Offered in the fall and spring for children under the age of 4, the Mommy and Me program increases children’s confidence, improves motor coordination and teaches respect for animals in a fun & nurturing environment. During the lessons, children and parents together will learn the parts of the horse and tack, basics of horse care and horsemanship, and will enjoy leading their child in fun, educational games during the pony ride.
