Testimonials
I have been a Prince Equestrian Sports client for three years and I couldn't be happier with their facility and services. My horses that are boarded are very well cared for. Kirsten and her staff treat all boarded horses like their own and make sure they are happy and healthy. Kirsten is also happy to share her vast knowledge with others and help them to become better horsemen (or women). In addition, I have had Kirsten train horses for me and I am quite impressed with her knowledge, experience, and professionalism. I wouldn't board or get training anywhere else! The family-friendly, no drama atmosphere at Prince Equestrian Sports is what makes it so very special. I have found my "home away from home." - S.D. Fernandina Beach

Helmets

ASTM/SEI helmets are required when mounted.  If you do not have one, we can provide one for you but encourage those riding long-term to invest in their own.

Bike helmets or other sports helmets are not permitted as they don’t offer adequate protection in case of a fall.

Breeches

Breeches (riding pants) and tights that cover your leg completely are encouraged. We recommend full-seat breeches. The knee patch and full seat on a pair or breeches whether felt or silicon provide extra security and grip while riding which creates a more secure and safe ride.Yoga pants, dress pants, and jeans are discouraged.

Tops

A sunshirt, polo shirt, or athletic top is recommended. This allows a better visual to riders’ spine, elbow and hip alignment.

Boots

Designer riding boots –  and anything below the ankle does not support the ankle in a very productive manner, causing it to roll in your stirrup while riding. This causes instability and causes the leg to swing as the ankle can’t tighten effectively around the horse.

 

The other reason for requiring either tall boots or paddock boots worn with half chaps is because non riding boots often have a zipper on the inside vs the back of them which tears up the horses’ saddles over time causing rapid wear and tear on the saddle

Gloves

Gloves are encouraged to prevent the rider’s fingers from getting blistered. It aids in keeping a steady, constant contact without having to worry about the reins slipping through the rider’s hands.

Half Chaps

Half chaps, if wearing paddock boots are greatly encouraged as it protects the rider’s leg from rubbing and aids in stabilizing the rider’s leg.
