Getting Started

New Participant Intake

If you are interested in riding with Prancing Horse we ask that you contact us at programs@prancing-horse.org. Participants will be scheduled if there is availability with a lesson that fits their time schedule and with other riders that are of similar age and/or ability. If there is no slot available, participants will be placed on the waiting list. When there is an availability, the program director will contact with the lesson day and time that is available and send the rider paperwork. Participants must fit Prancing Horse’s eligibility guidelines in order to ride. Once a participant has a lesson time, that participant will keep the time from session to session. Participants or their parent or guardian will be contacted before the next session to confirm.

Participant Paperwork and Updates

All new participants are required to submit a completed new participant packet which consists of an Application and Health History, a Physician’s Statement, Liability Release, and Release of Information. A doctor must evaluate the participant and complete the form to ensure that riding is an appropriate activity for the individual. All forms must be completed and submitted to the program director prior to the first lesson. Prancing Horse will cross check to make sure the individual is an appropriate candidate for riding.
