Release and Liability Waiver

At Delray Dressage, we strive to offer a safe, fair, and enjoyable riding experience for all riders. Please review our policies regarding unused lessons, weather-related cancellations, and leased horses.

• Most lessons are paid after they are completed.

• Any lesson must be canceled with at least 24 hours’ notice, otherwise the full cost of the lesson must still be paid.

• Riders may reschedule a lesson with at least 24 hours’ notice, subject to availability.

• Lessons not rescheduled within 30 days of the original date will be forfeited.

• For the safety of both horses and riders, riding lessons may be canceled or adjusted due to heavy rain, lightning, or unsafe footing.

• In most cases of bad weather, your trainer will offer a barn lesson instead of a riding lesson. These focus on horsemanship, grooming, tacking, stable management, and other valuable equine skills.

• If conditions prevent any type of lesson, you will be notified as soon as possible.

• If the lesson was already paid in advance, it will be rescheduled.

• If the lesson was not paid in advance, you will not be charged.

• Weather-related cancellations are rescheduled, not refunded.

• If you are unsure about weather conditions, please check with us before coming to the barn.

• Leasing fees are non-refundable and must be paid in advance.
   
• If a leased horse becomes temporarily unavailable (e.g., injury or illness), we will offer:
   

1. A replacement horse of similar level and temperament, or
2. A credit toward future lessons or leasing, depending on the duration of unavailability.
    

• Lease cancellations require 30 days written notice. No prorated refunds are offered for early termination.
