RIDER REGISTRATION FORM

Instructions:
Please download and read the Program Profile document. We have new policies/procedures that need to be completed BEFORE registering!

Review the session schedule, and select a first and second choice class that match the class grouping you have been assigned. If you have questions about class groupings, talk with the Program Director (Nancy Beers, (719) 495-3908 or beers@PPTRC.org).

If you do not see a class that fits your schedule, please call the office and we will do our best to accommodate you. If there is room in the class, you will be registered for your first choice. If not, you will be registered for your second choice, or we will call to try to find another time that is available. Please fill in all contact information. If you are a returning rider, this helps us verify that the information we have on file is correct.

You may also download and fill out the Rider Registration Form and return to us via fax (719-494-1689), email (Diane Eshelman at eshelman@pptrc.org), mail (PPTRC; 13620 Halleluiah Trail; Elbert, CO 80106), the PPTRC drop box (outside office door), or in person.

New Rider Information:
New riders cannot register for classes until an evaluation by PPTRC has been completed. Riders transferring from hippotherapy to therapeutic riding also require an evaluation by PPTRC prior to registration. To schedule your new rider evaluation interview, please call the Program Director, Nancy Beers at (719) 495-3908. If you are new OR if we do not have current (within one year) forms, print and fill out the Rider Release Form and Physician Form (or the rider will not be allowed to ride). New riders must print and fill out the Rider Health History Form and bring it to the rider evaluation. And we request (not mandatory) that new riders have any therapist you work with complete the Therapist Summary.

Types of Classes:
Group therapeutic classes consist of 3-5 riders and are one hour long with approximately 45 minutes of lesson time. Group class fees are $30 per week. Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall sessions are 8 weeks long. Holiday session is 6 weeks long.

PPTRC reserves the right to conduct ground lessons if we do not have the proper number of volunteers needed to safely conduct a riding class. In the event a class does not fill, PPTRC reserves the right to cancel that class. PPTRC reserves the right to cancel classes that do not fill and to change the class time to accommodate the majority of riders. Please understand that PPTRC needs to schedule instructors, volunteers, and activities, so we are counting on you to get your registration papers and payment in on time.
