What is an assessment lesson, and do I need one before starting regular lessons?

Yes, an assessment lesson is required for all new riders at White Fences. It is the first lesson everyone must take. This session is 1 hour and 15 minutes long and is designed to evaluate a rider’s current skill level, comfort around horses, and readiness for ongoing lessons. It also allows our trainers to recommend the best program, trainer match, and horse type if applicable. This ensures a safe and supportive start for each rider.
