• I understand that the establishment will make decisions based on information I give them and agree to always be honest and volunteer information about: • my abilities and riding experience; • any previous riding accidents; • any medical condition(s) which may affect my ability to ride and ongoing changes to my condition(s) and medication (including possible side effects).
• I reserve the right not to ride or interact with a horse allocated to me and may request a change of instructor.
• I understand that wearing an appropriate safety hat and footwear may reduce the severity of an injury should an accident happen. I agree to wear an appropriate riding hat and footwear while riding, leading and grooming horses at the establishment.
