Frequently asked questions

How much do riding lessons cost in York?
Riding lesson prices in York vary based on lesson type and the instructor's qualifications. A group lesson typically costs between £20 and £45 per hour, while a private one-to-one lesson ranges from £35 to £75 or more. Lessons at a riding school may be priced differently to those with a freelance instructor. Check individual profiles on The Digital Yard for current rates.
What qualifications should a riding instructor in York have?
In the UK, riding instructors should hold qualifications from the British Horse Society (BHS) or the Association of British Riding Schools (ABRS). Key BHS qualifications include BHSAI, BHSI, and BHSII. All riding instructors who coach for payment must hold a current coaching licence and public liability insurance. Look for instructors with qualifications relevant to your discipline and level.
How often should a beginner have riding lessons?
Beginners typically progress fastest with at least one lesson per week, which gives enough time to absorb new skills while maintaining momentum. Two lessons a week, or weekly lessons combined with practice on your own horse, will accelerate progress further. Your instructor can recommend a schedule based on your goals and available time.
