Horseback riding isn't an appropriate activity for everyone. There are conditions where it is unsafe to ride. It is the responsibility of the rider or parent/guardian to check and verify with their doctor that horseback riding is an appropriate activity. If the instructor sees an unsafe situation they may require a doctor's note, move the rider to groundwork sessions only, or dismiss the participant.
