    NSEC Policies

    General Policies

    Group Lesson Policies

    • Students are registered in group lessons once a week from their starting date to the last week in June.

    • In order to terminate group riding lessons at NSEC, a minimum of 2 weeks notice must be given by phone, email or in person, otherwise a termination fee equivalent to two group riding lesson charges will be applied to the student’s account.

    • If a student cannot make a scheduled lesson for any reason, the student will be charged the full lesson charge for that lesson and they will qualify for a free make up lesson in another class to help them catch up.

    • To schedule a free make-up lesson, NSEC must be contacted within two weeks of the missed lesson and the make-up lesson must be taken within the following 2 months in another regularly scheduled group lesson, otherwise the make up lesson will be forfeited and the missed lesson charge will be final.

    • All students will attend 3 to 4 mandatory Stable Management classes throughout the year that are taught off the horse. If a student is unable to attend a Stable Management session, they must reschedule within the Stable Management week or they will be charged the full lesson price and they will not qualify for a free make-up lesson.

    • If a student misses two stable management weeks in a row, they will not be able to ride until they have completed a stable management class outside the regular schedule at an additional cost.

    • If a student cannot make a scheduled lesson for any reason, NSEC must be informed 24 hours beforehand by phone or email and no charge will be made to the students account.

    • Privates and Semi-Private lessons are billed depending on how many students are present at the lesson. If one student is unable to make a lesson and gives the required the 24 hrs notice, the remaining student will be charged as a Private

    •  If a student cannot give NSEC 24 hours notice for any reason, including illness or injury, a miss charge of the full lesson fee will be applied to their account.
