What are the age requirements for youth classes?
If your child is interested in equestrian classes, or you wish to enroll a child in these classes, depending on which school is chosen, the age limits and restrictions will vary. For the most part, most schools are around the same age limits, but some will allow younger students to enter, while others will require a child to be a bit older before they are able to enroll in the course. For the most part, students will have to be at least ten years old, but in some schools it may be a little less ( usually around eight), and other schools will be somewhat higher (around twelve).
Since there is no set age limit across the board with every school, you have to contact as many schools as possible, in order to get your child in at the earliest age. Additionally, you must inquire about until what age the youth courses go to. Most schools will allow students up to the age of about fifteen, at which point the student must enroll in a different course, which is generally more expensive. So, if you are interested in these courses, the best way to find the information, is to contact several schools, and ask about their age limitations.
